Manawatu-Wanganui Region → Manawatu-Wanganui – The actual name of the region does not include "Region", it is just "Manawatu-Wanganui". (On the other hand, it is possible to find some sources, even governmental ones, that do include the capitalized "Region", but I believe they are in a distinct minority.) Manawatu-Wanganui already redirects here and there is no other competing meaning that makes the name ambiguous. (This discussion is a spin-off from this broader discussion, where it became clear that some users were uncomfortable considering all of the New Zealand region names as a group. So I'm planning on having individual discussions for them all; this is the first one.) Good Ol’factory (talk) 21:27, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

Support. No reason for either the word "region" or the capitalisation. The article itself may need a little cleanup as well, with "region" variously capped and uncapped throughout. BlackCab (talk) 22:02, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

Support. The capitalisation is incorrect.  Schwede 66  22:06, 2 April 2014 (UTC)
