[edit] Requested move

This mountain appears on Ordnance Survey Ireland maps as Galtymore Mountain. A Google search yields about 11,100 results for Galtymore and about 1,200 results for Galteemore. Timeineurope 12:05, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

And about 259 for "Galtymore Mountain", the proposed title. This is clearly not the most common name. Irish mountains are notoriously variable in their spellings, and in a case like this where the OSi is so clearly outnumbered, I don't think the move would be wise. There is room for discussion between "Galtymore" and "Galteemore", but "Galtymore Mountain" can be ruled out. --Stemonitis 16:56, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
Well just as reference. Briticana uses the "Galtymore Mountain" spelling. I personally think we should use that spelling. --Tλε Rαnδom Eδιτor (tαlk) 19:10, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
If that's correct, then a move to Galtymore rather than "Galtymore Mountain" seems reasonable. The latter seems a rather artificial construction. zoney ♣ talk 14:09, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
