Wrangell Island (Southern)Wrangell Island — No disambiguation is needed. If it were, Wrangell Island, Alaska would be a better choice. —Reuben 18:47, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Survey

[edit]
Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with *'''Support''' or *'''Oppose''', then sign your comment with ~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.
I would prefer your other alternative: Wrangell Island, Alaska; relying on a double letter for disambiguation makes me nervous. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 22:13, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

[edit]
Any additional comments:
  • This page was originally under Wrangell Island, but was moved in conjunction with renaming the Russian Wrangel Island to also have two Ls. Since the Russian island is ordinarily spelled with only one L, there's no need to disambiguate the titles. --Reuben 18:54, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
