Lake Geneva whitefish → Coregonus hiemalis — "Lake Geneva whitefish" is not the most commonly used name for this species, only being used in Kottelat & Freyhof. No common names are in serious use in the English-speaking world, with none given at FishBase, and no German or French names would be unambiguous and appropriate. Therefore I propose this page be moved to this species's scientific name. —innotata (Talk • Contribs) 16:57, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Support. The facts given by Innotata indicate that this should be at the scientific name. Similar situations have been discussed for rodents. Ucucha 09:09, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * The IUCN is using Gravenche as common name --Melly42 (talk) 16:12, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * You are right, and according to FishBase, this name applies to no other species. However, it is not listed as an English name by anybody except the IUCN, and it does not seem to be the most common name, or not by any large margin. —innotata (Talk • Contribs) 22:40, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * The book "Extinctions in Near Time" (1999) by Ross MacPhee is also using Gravenche as common name --Melly42 (talk) 11:09, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
 * It seems to be only rarely used as an English common name. It scarcely needs stating that the scientific name is most prevalent. —innotata (Talk • Contribs) 18:50, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

I suppose this page should be moved to "gravenche". —innotata (Talk • Contribs) 19:56, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
