Ibi, Spain → Ibi, Alicante – Doesn't this article fit the WP:PLACEDAB rule that says Cities should be disambiguated by a smaller administrative division if it will lead to ambiguity disambiguating by country?. Would it not be better be disambiguated by Alicante as the city is not widely nor popularly known in Spain, not forgetting there is Ibiza.

 * Comment. The circumstances here appear to be the same as those at Talk:Sanga, Kaduna State in that the geographical entries listed upon the Ibi uidisambiguation page end with the country name — Ibi, Burkina Faso and Ibi, Nigeria, although it turns out that Ibi, Nigeria is only a redirect to Ibi, Taraba State. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 04:00, 12 December 2021 (UTC)


 * You see, the problem is that some of these cities with disambiguation tags are small cities that are less known. I am suggesting that settlements that are not large and not well known be disambiguated by a smaller administrative region, while larger cities be disambiguated by countries if the title wouldn't be ambiguous.
 * Alicante in this case is a well known province of Spain and I don't think it's a bad option. Josedimaria237 (talk) 09:26, 12 December 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment but there is not other Ibi in Spain, in which we have an article for? --  AxG /  ✉  11:59, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Disambiguating city names is defined by the policy at WP:PLACEDAB: "Places are often disambiguated by the country in which they lie, if this is sufficient." Since there are no other places named Ibi in Spain, the current title is correct. 162 etc. (talk) 18:04, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Current disambiguation is perfectly adequate since there is no other Ibi in Spain. As for Ibiza (and Ibias, for that matter), they are disambiguated by being, well, different. Favonian (talk) 21:28, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
