Talk:Nottebohm case

Merge proposal
Nottebohm (Liechtenstein v. Guatemala) and Liechtenstein v. Guatemala are two articles on exactly the same topic with exactly the same scope. They should be merged. The "Nottebohm" name is preferred after reviewing Category:International Court of Justice cases, where most articles' titles are led with a case descriptor, rather than just being in the "plaintiff v. defendant" format.

Though Liechtenstein v. Guatemala is the older and more complete article, I agree with adding the official ICJ identifier to the title of the article. Too bad the individual starting Nottebohm (Liechtenstein v. Guatemala) didn't just homogenize the format himself. It has been two weeks since your post, I say go ahead with the merge. 67.160.161.176 (talk) 07:46, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

As the creator of the original page I agree with the merge, and the use of the identifier. I will proceed with the merge on 3 June if there aren't any more comments. --Ondra2 (talk) 09:16, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Yes, please go ahead with the merger with the title "Nottebohm (Lichtenstein v. Guatemala)" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.69.17.124 (talk) 16:33, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

It would be much better with the merge. The former article is more complete while this one(Which I initiated) has some additional info and appropriate headline. So, after merge, appropriate changes can be made. Turcopolis (talk) 9 Aug 2008 —Preceding undated comment was added at 16:15, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Nottebohm (Liechtenstein v. Guatemala) → Nottebohm case – There's little consistency in the way cases of the International Court of Justice are named on Wikipedia, and as far as I know it's never been discussed much. I think it's time to start renaming some of these to conform with WP:COMMONNAME. This was the first such discussion. In this instance, I believe that the case is known most commonly as "Nottebohm case", or simply "Nottebohm". Nottebohm is a disambiguation page, so I think we should go with Nottebohm case.
