The English name for Kortrijk, is it not Courtray? David Descamps 12:19, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

It was indeed Courtray some time ago, but that term is no longer much used by English speakers. Just like Peking gave way to Beijing and Mechlin to Mechelen, I think it is correct to leave Kortrijk as is in this article (see Talk:Bruges#Bruges/ Brugge and Talk:Brussels-Capital Region#Names Survey for the related debates that are currently going on).
