Talk:Austria–Italy border

Italo-Austrian border
The more elegant term Italo-Austrian border as in Italo-Austrian War is preferable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wjvanb (talk • contribs) 07:04, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Austria–Italy border → Austro-Italian border – This is by far the most WP:COMMON NAME for the border in English WP:RELIABLE SOURCES. According to ngram viewer it is about 4-5 times more common than Austria-Italy border, Italy-Austria border or Italo-Austrian border. Bermicourt (talk) 21:19, 15 October 2022 (UTC) — Relisting.

 * Support, with en-dash not hyphen, per WP:COMMONNAME. BilledMammal (talk) 11:43, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Support to Italian-Austrian border, per ngrams which shows that name to be the most common. I would also support Austrian-Italian border.
 * This is also supported by Google News;

 * Oppose. To remain WP:CONSISTENT with Austria-Italy relations and the quasi-totality of articles under Category:Bilateral relations of Italy and Category:Bilateral relations of Austria. Editors should also take note that a well-attended RfC of 2022 failed to change similar article titles to the adjectival form.Pilaz (talk) 18:00, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment. "Austria-Italy relations" doesn't even figure in English sources - see ngram viewer here (nor does "Italy-Austria relations"); whereas both adjectival forms do; "Austro-Italian relations" being way the more common. So looks like that needs changing too, but that's a separate debate. Bermicourt (talk) 19:10, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
 * The well attended RfC failed to find a consensus in favour of either consistent adjectival or nounal forms. As the closer said, no consensus that one pattern across all bilateral relations article currently exists on Wikipedia that is so dominant that it is the be-all-end-all in every discussion on naming bilateral relations articles. As such we need to consider all of WP:CRITERIA, not just WP:CONSISTENT, and due to the increased naturality of the proposed title WP:CRITERIA as a whole supports this move.

 * Replied to the clone of this comment at this parallel discussion here., I would advise to nominate multiple pages using WP:RMPM in the future, to avoid duplicate discussions like these. Thank you. Pilaz (talk) 22:07, 19 October 2022 (UTC)

 * Oppose on the same grounds as the very similar Talk:France–Germany border. ╠╣uw [ talk ] 16:21, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose (strongly) per User:Elli's positions on Talk:Germany–Poland border. There are HUNDREDS upon HUNDREDS of articles that all follow this EXACT same article-title format in Category:International borders — with that magnitude of articles, WP:CONSISTENT can't be simply dismissed without discussion. Also, pinging the participants of that discussion who might want to weigh in on this similar discussion. Paintspot Infez (talk) 17:26, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
