The New Zealand location map is useful enough for finding out where in NZ North Cape is, but would it be possible to include a map of the Cape Reinga – North Cape area showing the relative position of the two capes? Koro Neil ( talk) 23:05, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: Withdrawn. I stand by the rationale and this move request, but the anti-dual name gang have all shown up early and I can't be bothered having this fight at the moment. ( non-admin closure) Turnagra ( talk) 00:51, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
North Cape (New Zealand) → North Cape / Otou – The proposed dual name meets all of WP:CRITERIA as well as or better than the current title. "North Cape / Otou" is far more recognisable than simply "North Cape" and the required disambiguation to refer to this feature, as well as being far more concise and precise. There are plenty of examples of dual names in use - including for disambiguation purposes - which means that consistency with other places in New Zealand isn't an issue, while the dual name is also more natural, in part by virtue of it capturing all three names which someone might know the Cape as ("North Cape / Otou", "North Cape", and "Otou"), as well as it not requiring redundant disambiguation.
