Welcome to my talk page. Please adhere to the talk page guidelines and particularly the following:

Please post your new topic at the bottom of this page.
Please sign and date your entry by inserting "~~~~" at the end.
Please specify a descriptive subject or headline for a new topic and separate subtopics by ===heading=== lines, if needed.
Please indent your posts with one more ":" than what you are replying to, i.e. begin with ":" if replying to an existing topic and "::" if replying to a reply.

I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your Talk page (or the article Talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or specifically let me know where you'd prefer the reply.
If I left you a message; please answer on the page where the message was left, using {{ping|Username}}, {{reply to|Username}} or {{u|Username}} in your response, or add {{talkback|Username}} or {{whisperback|Username}} to my talk page. If you leave me a message here, I will answer here on my talk page, notifying you in the same manner.

Talk:Taukihepa / Big South Cape Island#Requested move 10 December 2023

Thank you for closing this discussion, but I was hoping you would reconsider your closure. In it, three editors supported the move and two editors opposed, and if the arguments were of equal weight I would agree that a no consensus result would be reasonable, but they weren't. In particular, the argument The most reliable source (NZGB gazetteer via Toitū te Whenua/LINZ) gives the name as Taukihepa / Big South Cape Island per https://gazetteer.linz.govt.nz/place/5838 has no basis in policies or guidelines; a single source is never sufficient to determine what the common name is, particularly when that single source is from the entity that determines what the official name is - to give a single source such weight would overturn our preference for using the common name over the official name.
