I'm currently having an argument in [[Talk:List of communities in Quebec]].
This morning, I moved the article that Ron Davis had created from its rather
unwieldy title of [[Communities of the Province of Quebec, Canada]]. I did
this for the following reasons:
1) the title [[Communities in the province of Quebec, Canada]] is
excessively
long;
2) the title List of communities in Quebec matches the format [[List of
cities in Canada]];
3) it has the word "List" in the title (an article "Communities..."
etc.
would ordinarily be expected to be about the communities, e.g. municipal
politics and suchlike; compare [[List of popes]] etc.)
Cf. [[List of Georgia counties]].
Ron seems to have taken great offence at
this, believing some kind of political motive, and moved it back (by copying
and pasting, not the move tool.) Further, he seems to think it's "his"
article.
I think I'm right, but I'm reluctant to try this again without some backup
for fear of an edit war. Help please?
