Quñuqqucha → Lake Conococha – The name in official maps and literature is Conococha. – Frank R 1981 ( talk) 07:09, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
- This is a contested technical request ( permalink). Anthony Appleyard ( talk) 11:27, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
- There seems to be a tendency to change these names to the
Quechua spelling.

- Such changes are confusing for English-speaking people who are looking for information and possible travel routes. The official name should appear as the article title and the Quechua names should be kept in the body of the article as alternative names. Frank R 1981 ( talk) 19:20, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
- Note that the original title was Lake Conococha until this unexplained move a couple of years ago. — AjaxSmack 21:08, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
- Support per WP:UCN. "Lake Conococha" is vastly more common than the current title (which doesn't even rate in Google ngram results) and is the only name appearing on maps. — AjaxSmack 21:08, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
- I agree with you. This requested move complies with Wikipedia's requisites for the name of an article (see: Wikipedia:Article titles#Deciding on an article title). Many names used in English come from official maps and literature. Quechua names are official also, but are infrequently or locally used. Frank R 1981 ( talk) 22:38, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
