Talk:Mapoutahi

Move to "Mapoutahi"
I hereby signal my intention to move this article from "Goat Island/Mapoutahi" to "Mapoutahi". I believe this is preferable for a number of reasons. First, no-one actually calls it "Goat Island" that I've ever met, nor in any published material I know of, which makes Mapoutahi the WP:COMMONNAME. Second, it's not an island, and there is a "Goat Island" just a few kilometres away in Otago Harbour, both of which make "Goat Island" a needlessly confusing name. Third, even the Gazetteer gives "Mapoutahi" as the official name of the feature and states that "Goat Island" is not an official name. Unless anyone has cogent objections, I will make the move within the next twenty-four hours, as I see no reason for retaining "Goat Island" in the title. —VeryRarelyStable 01:55, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
