Street names in Chișinău → Street names of Chișinău – Consistent with other similar articles (related to cities), e.g. Street names of Warsaw, Street Names of Paris, 1er arrondissement, Street names of Mayfair.

Support per nomination. At first glance, the only other exception appears to be Street names in Iceland. —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 01:34, 8 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Street Names of Paris, 1er arrondissement is only a redirect. Street names of Mayfair and every other article beginning "Street names of..." (except Warsaw) were created within the past week or two by the same editor. Category:Streets by city show mostly "Streets in ...". There are a number of articles starting "List of streets in ..." but I see only one starting "List of streets of ...". There doesn't seem to be complete consistency, but "streets in ..." seems more common. Station1 (talk) 20:28, 8 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Excellent research. Just to clarify, the recent creations were not by nom, but by a second editor. Andrewa (talk) 18:58, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Each entry, as well as the eponymous person's name, should have the street's name, and all known previous names for that street. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:37, 18 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose – I don't understand the reason for these recent changes of "in" to "of". Dicklyon (talk) 03:15, 20 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. We can't plead consistency when the examples are recent work and inconsistent with previous practice. Andrewa (talk) 18:58, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
