Manual of style for Welsh place names.

There are already guidelines in Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(geographic_names)#United_Kingdom but they currently do not state whether to use the Welsh or English name if they are different. In most Wales related articles the style set out in Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Ireland-related_articles#Common_names appears to be followed but that is for Irish place names. Having a similar style in the manual for Welsh names might help to solve a dispute in the Penhelig railway station article (please see Talk:Penhelig railway station for more information).
