[edit] Requested move

Anadolu Province → Anatolia Province, Ottoman Empire – need for standard Ottoman subdivsion title format. See WP:RM page for similar requests. Sample: Bosnia Province, Ottoman Empire. See Subdivisions of the Ottoman Empire for details of Ottoman subdivisions and Category:Provinces of the Ottoman Empire for list of pages.

  • Oppose Pointless pursuit of an unnecessary uniformity. If this disambiguated, it might be worth doing; but there is no need for a long name, which will usually require piping or redirection. "Anatolia Province", simply, would be acceptable, as incorporating the English name of the region. Septentrionalis 20:59, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Support This change should be made as it is being made for other similar articles but I'm not sure if the article should be changed to 'Anatolia' as Anadolu is the name given to it under Ottoman Empire. --Quinlan Vos 11:28, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Support and use the English name Anatolia. LuiKhuntek 07:45, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
