Requested move

Shangjing Longquanfu → Sanggyeong – I feel this page should be renamed Sanggyeong as nearly all links to it are Sanggyeong. It also seems inappropriate to use the Mandarin name and pronunciation as the title that is otherwise displayed as historically Korean. Parhe (talk) 04:01, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Putting this through, as it previously went the other way without discussion. Dekimasuよ! 20:47, 29 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Shangjing Longquanfu" is preferable per WP:COMMONNAME. Google search for "Shangjing Longquanfu" -wikipedia produces 1,080 results, while "Sanggyeong Yongcheonbu" -wikipedia returns only 245. "Shangjing" or "Sanggyeong" by itself should be avoided due to ambiguity. Literally "upper capital", the term can refer to a number of ancient places. -Zanhe (talk) 01:21, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Simple google searches do not establish a common name. In reliable sources, both Sanggyeong Yongcheonbu and Shangjing Longquanfu are rarely used in reliable sources. While it's claimed that Sanggyeong and Shangjing are ambiguous, this is only the case for Chinese, not Korean. Sanggyeong is a distinctive word that refers to the Balhae capital, and thus considering common use of Sanggyeong and its distinctiveness in the context of Korean history, Sanggyeong is the better word to use. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.191.250.254 (talk) 06:55, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
