Camp Iranun → Camp Abubakar – As per WP:COMMONNAME, the base is still referred to its old name Camp Abubakar, a name it held at its peak while under the control of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front. This is true even in reference to the camp after the government took over it way back in the early 2000s.
See Philippine Star, Rappler, MindaNews, Gulf News (which curiously states Camp Iranun from being an adjacent facility to Camp Abubakar), and even even state media Philippine News Agency, OPAPP via PTV Hariboneagle927 (talk) 23:46, 6 March 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. 🐶 EpicPupper (he/him | talk) 03:16, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

- Support - I'd also like to ask why is it named Iranun in the first place? Was it changed? It is not directly mentioned in the article. --Likhasik (talk) 09:45, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
