Whitewater (POW camp) → Riding Mountain Park Labour Project (POW) – This PoW camp was never official referred to as Whitewater, only recently has it been called the Whitewater Lake Prisoner of War Camp. In official records, it was referred to as the Riding Mountain Park Labour Project. - Relisted Armbrust, B.Ed.

 * Could you provide some reliable sources supporting that? All of the sources I looked at when writing the article used the name Whitewater, and a Google search finds only Wikipedia pages and a blog. Nikkimaria (talk) 04:02, 7 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Oppose – per Nikkimaria's comments and the fact the WP:AT calls for using a common name over an official name. Dicklyon (talk) 06:16, 7 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the link Dicklyon, I was unaware that the common name should be used. In that case, is it possible to change the page name to Whitewater Lake Prisoner of War Camp or Whitewater Prisoner of War Camp? I have never heard the camp simply be referred to as "Whitewater".
