Geohashing:Community Portal/Renaming suggestions

The following is a list of renaming suggestions for graticules, based on the geonames.org database, based strictly on city size. Many of them are just

• differences in transcription
• split cities that have named two graticules
• split cities that have not been considered because they are only partly in the graticule in question
• or there are other excellent reasons not to name a graticule after the largest city it contains.

but some of the suggestions are actually reasonable. If you happen to have a lazy afternoon/evening, feel free to browse this list, compare population sizes in wikipedia or whatever better source you have available, and to confirm or disprove these suggestions.

If you can confirm any renaming suggestion as sensible, please try to

• in the case of USA, Canada or Australia: identify the correct state for the graticule.
• contact any local geohashers and ask them for their opinion (if there are any, wait for a response before proceeding).
• change the name of the graticule on the correct subpage in the Category:All graticules.
• move the old graticule page to the new name.

Mark the graticule below as

• (confirmed) - yes, the suggested city is larger that the current namesake
• (moved) - the change has been made
• (not to be moved) - the graticule is not to be renamed, for other reasons (please specify)

or simply remove it from the list, if it is completely irrelevant (e.g. in the case of transcription differences).

The first name on the line is the PROPOSED new name. The second name is the CURRENT name.

57,-154: Karluk, Alaska for Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska.
In areas as sparsely settled as this, it makes sense to name graticules after large parks or geographical features that span most of the graticule rather than hamlets. If geohashers a few graticules away were planning a visit, what would they call it?

50,-2: Poole, UK for Weymouth, United Kingdom.
50,4: Brussels, BE for Bruxelles, Belgium.
:Proposing a third variant: "Bruxelles/Brussel, Belgium".
Brussels has a french majority, but is officially bilingual. Since language issues are very important to both Flemic and Wallonians (there is no such thing as a Belgian*) and using the wrong one can get you killed, I think it's appropriate to use the double spelling here. [Ekorren]
(* Actually there are twelve Belgians: The king and the soccer national team.)

Probably not to be moved. Montana City is a CDP, while Townsend is an actual town, and the population difference is negligible.
