Spelling

The name should be "Tana bru" with "bru" not capitalised, see e.g. Wikipedia in English or Norwegian bokmål. Can I just move the page, creating a redirect from the old one? ― Kripakko (talk) 22:07, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

I don't think a discussion is necessary when it is an obvious typo like in this case, so yes, you can move the page. Thank you for spotting the mistake!
On Special:WhatLinksHere/Tana Bru, Norway, you can find pages that link to the current spelling. The spelling should also be corrected on those pages. It is especially important to correct 70,28 (MediaWiki does not like double redirects) and All graticules/Eurasia (A source for the Graticule Database).
The other links come from country pages like Finland and Norway, and from neighbouring graticules. Not correcting the spellings in those cases won't break anything since the redirect exist, but it is nicer to have the spelling consistently correct, in my opinion. --Fippe (talk) 22:22, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
