Exmouth, Devon → Exmouth — Original and largest Exmouth. Only one other place with this name so disambiguation page is unnecessary. — 71.106.183.124 ( talk) 03:22, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account
Wikipedia's naming conventions.It sure would have been nice if someone had bothered to mention this discussion at Talk:Exmouth, Western Australia, or even the original (i.e. pre-move) Talk:Exmouth. To hold a poll like this at what was then Talk:Exmouth, Devon, without notifying any of the other stakeholders, is to guarantee this particular outcome by excluding those who may hold a different viewpoint.

Probably an excellent case of lack of checking for an IP number to claim Only one other place is nothing short of being geographically challenged - and for a short closure within such a period of time clear ignoring what wikipedia is actually about - hahah about polling is not a substitute for discussion Satu Suro 06:07, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
Indeed. Also on a quick google search, all of the first 11 references to "Exmouth" are to the one in Western Australia, with the first reference to the one in Devon being 12th (its official site) and 14th (the Wikipedia article). This would suggest that the third "Support" above is possibly mistaken. Orderinchaos 09:52, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
Besides, where was the poll to move this page initially? This move simply return the status quo. Anyway, I don't see how any any other 'Exmouth' can claim to be more prominent when they're named after the original one. Besides, this one has like 14* the population of the one in Australia, and on Google.com all of the first results are from the UK settlement. The move was correct.

Use of the term "regeneration" to describe the destruction of the Strand seems inappropriate. It's a marketing term used by the consultants employed by the council to put a positive gloss on what has been a highly unpopular change. (And similarly, the Council's further "regeneration" plans for the seafront deserve mention... Mhkay ( talk) 00:20, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
