Broughton-in-Furness → Broughton in Furness – Per the Ordnance Survey and road signs. The non-hyphonated version is also currently used in this article's text.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 22:16, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose — weak because some sources do indeed use the non-hyphenated form, but oppose because various others retain the hyphens. While usage remains split, best not to re-title.  ╠╣uw [ talk ]  10:48, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Interesting that the 3rd source does use no hyphens in text ("Broughton in Furness CE Primary School") even though it uses them in the title. Vision of Britain uses no hyphens in the name of the title put the quote does use hyphens, maybe hyphens were more common in the past but old maps also don't show hyphens.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 12:27, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose: Where there's evidence for both hyphenated and non-hyphenated forms, my preference is to hyphenate to reduce ambiguity. In text, does "Broughton in Furness" mean a place called "Broughton" that is in Furness, or a place called "Broughton in Furness"? Hyphens remove that ambiguity. --  Dr Greg  talk 12:39, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
