Namibe Airport → Moçâmedes Airport – The city changed its name to Moçâmedes in 2016. Trinaliv ( talk) 17:52, 4 June 2018 (UTC) reply

Whether the city changed its name is not directly related to the official or common name of the airport. Also, note related discussion at Talk:Gagarinsky International Airport; this airport is also known as Gagarin International Airport. Dekimasu よ! 18:50, 4 June 2018 (UTC) reply

I'd recommend waiting until we find a newspaper article announcing the change or we get a photo of the new sign on the airport teminal. Right now all the standard sources say Namibe. We have a good number of airport articles where the article and airport names are not the same. Cptmrmcmillan ( talk) 03:55, 5 June 2018 (UTC) reply

• Comment. As Dekimasu notes, if anything, this article should be moved to Yuri Gagarin Airport, as that appears to be the name what few reliable sources out there use. See http://www.angop.ao/angola/en_us/noticias/sociedade/2013/7/33/Yuri-Gagarin-airport-receives-first-planes-September,80357611-2a73-440a-9f1b-35d19eb1905d.html . Also ICAO's website, while not 100% reliable (they can be out of date, too), comes back with "airportName": "IBE/YURI GAGARIN". Better sources would definitely help, though... the sole airline that flies here still calls it just "Namibe" on their website in both English & Portuguese, FWIW ( http://www.taag.com/en/Destinations/Destination-Guide/Destination/namibe ).

• Support "Yuri Gagarin International Airport" or "Yuri Gagarin Airport", and oppose the proposed title unless it becomes the common name at some point. Dekimasu よ! 22:59, 11 June 2018 (UTC) reply
• Sure, upgrade from comment to support on Yuri Gagarin Airport myself, seeing no other sources offered. SnowFire ( talk) 16:16, 12 June 2018 (UTC) reply

• Support Yuri Gagarin Airport. My review of the few English sources available supports what SnowFire and Dekimasu have said.-- Cúchullain ^t/ c 15:52, 12 June 2018 (UTC) reply
