Country name
[edit]@Snoteleks:: Actually you started this chain of events when you decided to go against consensus and unified approach, and use different name. If you want it to change across Wikipedia, the burden is on you and there is nothing unfair about it. But until then, the consensus is that only this name is used. It's the same with all geographical names (everywhere it was Kiev until it was moved to Kyiv; Turkey is still used and not Türkiye; etc.). FromCzech (talk) 06:20, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
- Dear @FromCzech, I understand that the usage of multiple names to refer to the same subject (i.e. synonyms) may be confusing. Here at WP:TOL we have a bit more experience with such deals. I have refrained from reverting unfounded changes, seeing as how there is still a restless drive to keep those changes. Instead, I present to you what I consider a useful list of synonyms for future reference, all according to information available in the corresponding Wikipedia articles and talk pages:
- Czechia = Czech Republic
- Slovakia = Slovak Republic
- France = French Republic
- Greece = Hellenic Republic
- Italy = Italian Republic, Republic of Italy
- Portugal = Portuguese Republic
- Slovenia = Republic of Slovenia
- Croatia = Republic of Croatia
- Germany = Federal Republic of Germany
- Serbia = Republic of Serbia
- Egypt = Arab Republic of Egypt
- Austria = Republic of Austria
- Spain = Kingdom of Spain
- Turkey = Republic of Türkiye
- UK = United Kingdom, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
- USA = United States, United States of America
- China = People's Republic of China
- Taiwan = Republic of China
- Brazil = Federative Republic of Brazil
- Luxembourg = Grand Duchy of Luxembourg
- Venezuela = Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela
- To counteract, these are some cases in which similarly-looking terms are not synonyms:
- Hope this helps and have a safe editing. —Snoteleks (Talk) 09:41, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
