Allendorf, GiessenAllendorf (Lumda)Relisted. Favonian (talk) 23:18, 8 January 2012 (UTC) It makes sense to me to name the article after the city. Since the city, as per its official website, is called "Allendorf (Lumda)", I request that the article be moved. Nobody is going to be confused by any other Allendorf, and it removes the tricky wording of "Gießen/Giessen". Jared Preston (talk) 17:43, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Have you actually read the reasoning behind the request? Giessen/Gießen does not need to be used here at all. Jared Preston (talk) 22:25, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That was the only part of the reasoning with which I do not disagree. There is no reason to use the "official name" (especially in German). Subnumine (talk) 22:30, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I just feel that, with the need to disambiguate from other Allendorfs, it would make sense to go by the official name, since nobody would refer to Allendorf (Lumda) as Allendorf, Giessen. Jared Preston (talk) 22:37, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
