Survey

 * Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with  or  , then sign your comment with  . Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's policy on article titles.


 * Support for a different reason. The nom should be for WP:GEMEINSAMENAME, since it is common in German to drop Fußball. The English name per Official Report of Debates Council of Europe Consultative Assembly 1989 p582 is "In Munich, there is a Turkish football club called "Turk Gucu" which has risen from the C division (the lowest division) to the heights of the Bavarian League." Bayernliga is as German as Hauptbahnhof, with or without football, and per WP:UE when there is no English name ("Bavarian Football League" gets zero) WHEN WP:USEENGLISH SAYS USEGERMAN. However the WP:GEMEINSAMENAME is Bayernliga. In ictu oculi (talk) 12:41, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

Discussion

 * Any additional comments:


 * I suppose the nominator is arguing that "Bayernliga" is the form most commonly used in English-language sources? Certainly neither "Bayern" nor "liga" are English! --BDD (talk) 22:49, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't imgine that a level 5 football league gets much coverage in the English speaking media so looking for an English translation that's frequently used might be futile. Soccerway uses the German names for example. Calistemon (talk) 01:14, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
