– These appear to be the only places with this names, which would make them the WP:PTOPIC. Disambiguation is not required per WP:NCAUS. Therefore per WP:CONCISE we should lose the disambiguation. Any places with similar names can be dealt with by hatnotes or disamb pages per WP:SMALLDETAILS. TarnishedPath^talk 11:03, 27 October 2025 (UTC)

• Support -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 04:01, 29 October 2025 (UTC)

Support - This appears quite straightforward and reasonable. CitadelRelay (talk) 07:48, 31 October 2025 (UTC)

Contesting that this is reasonable - see the outcome of an RFC on this matter. This RM seems to disregard the closing comments entirely. Dfadden (talk) 20:04, 3 November 2025 (UTC)

The RFC closed as nil outcome. NCAUST states the proposed moves may occur and there is policy reason for them to occur. If you are going to contest bring policy arguments. TarnishedPath^talk 23:26, 3 November 2025 (UTC)

Oppose and request Speedy Close on the grounds that the RFC was closed with No Consensus, and noting the closer's remarks that most editors opposed dropping the state/territory from Australian place names in article titles and The default titling convention of "City, State/Territory" remains unchanged. Dfadden (talk) 20:05, 3 November 2025 (UTC)

The result of the RFC has zero bearing on this discussion as it was a no consensus outcome, meaning that WP:NCAUS is in place unaltered. There is exactly zero grounds for a speedy close of this. TarnishedPath^talk 23:25, 3 November 2025 (UTC)

• Support per nominator's rationale. Benratta (talk) 23:21, 5 November 2025 (UTC)

• Support per previous discussions similar to this one. Thanks, 1isall (he/him) (talk | contribs) 13:55, 9 November 2025 (UTC)

Support as per rationale, and following similar changes in Sydney :) gompk 15:26, 9 November 2025 (UTC)

• Oppose As with American municipalities, almost all use the state they are in, and that would make consistent sense here. The other links can redirect. ← Metallurgist (talk) 21:53, 11 November 2025 (UTC)

  Again, these are Australian places, not American ones. Thanks, 1isall (he/him) (talk | contribs) 22:01, 11 November 2025 (UTC)

  Adding to 1isall, the appropriate naming convention is WP:NCAUS which allows the proposals. When adding in WP:CONCISE there is an argument for movement. TarnishedPath^talk 00:16, 12 November 2025 (UTC)
