Talk:Landessternwarte Heidelberg-Königstuhl

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Merged with Stateobservatory Heidelberg-Königstuhl

It was only after I created this article that I discovered there was another article on the same subject called Stateobservatory Heidelberg-Königstuhl. Obviously the two needed merging, which I have done, but I was faced with a choice of which name to use. I chose Landessternwarte Heidelberg-Königstuhl because:

  • Stateobservatory Heidelberg-Königstuhl is a an exonym.
  • Stateobservatory Heidelberg-Königstuhl is not good English (Heidelberg-Königstuhl State Observatory would be better).
  • The were over 50 links (red before I created the article) to Landessternwarte Heidelberg-Königstuhl, and only 3 to Stateobservatory Heidelberg-Königstuhl.
