Reverted move

I have moved this article back to the previous name "Municipality of Hodoš" for the same reasons as at Talk:Municipality of Dobrovnik. Doremo (talk) 02:46, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hodoš is the primary name

Hodoš is the primary name for this municipality and village because 1) Hodoš is given first on the village limit signs, 2) Hodoš is given first on Slovenian maps and English maps, 3) Hodoš is given first on the municipal website, 4) Hodoš is the only name that appears on house address markers, 5) Hodoš is given first on bilingual signage in the village. Doremo (talk) 06:19, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly the title should use Hodoš, per reasons above. The same as Dobrovnik. I will revert the move. --Tone 12:24, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Look at every article we have on municipalities of Finland, or every article we have on municipalities of South Tyrol, and you will find that Wikipedia determines the primary name based on one fact and one fact only: which of the official languages of the municipality is the native language of the majority of the population. Signage, address markers, websites and maps play no role in determining the primary name. There is no reason why these two Slovenian municipalities should be an exception. Libhye (talk) 03:44, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We have policies on the names, which clearly favor Hodoš as the name. Sources provided by Doremo above. South Tyrol for example has special administrative status within Italy which Hodoš and Dobrovnik do not have (apart from recognized rights for Hungarian-speaking population). --Tone 12:09, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Tone's reasoning. If one applied Libhye's reasoning, then Jõhvi, Estonia would be at (Russian) Yykhvi; Aralık, Turkey would be at (Kurdish) Başan‎; Artux, China would be at (Uighur) Atush; Olonets, Russia would be at (Karelian) Aunus; and so on. Clearly none of these are the case on WP. Doremo (talk) 14:59, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
