Talk:Pushpawati River

Move
This page needs to be moved to Pushpawati River because river pages are sufixed 'River' as per standard Wikipedia practice. - Chandan Guha (talk) 16:04, 2 June 2010 (UTC)


 * This is not standard Wikipedia practice. See WikiProject Rivers. In fact the general rule on naming articles is that we use the name most commonly recognised in English. Google searching indicates that this is "River Pushpawati", which is way ahead of both "Pushpawati River" and "Pushpawati". JamesBWatson (talk) 13:26, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

Pushpawati River → Pushpawati – Primary topic, no ambiguous page of the same name exists, qualifies as per, WP:2DABPRIMARY. Hemant DabralTalk  23:19, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
 * This is a contested technical request. OhKayeSierra (talk) 02:13, 5 March 2020 (UTC)


 * Oppose Even if no ambiguous page exists, is the name unadorned the common name in English for these rivers? It doesn't matter if nothing else is at the base title if "XYZ River" is still the best title. Maybe best for a full RM? Snowfire (talk) 01:09, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Also qualifies as per WP:CONSISTENT, with other rivers that have "river" dropped in their titles i.e. Ramganga, Yamuna, Sarayu, Nandakini, Ganges etc. — Hemant DabralTalk  09:18, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
