User:Andrewa/NYRM

This is an index of previous discussions relating to the proposal to move the article on New York State away from the base name New York.

Instructions

Latest discussions are at the bottom.

This page is started in the user namespace but may be moved to the project namespace in time. All edits should assume that it may be moved and conform to suitable standards.

Headings and subheadings should be concise but precise... a heading like "MR" is for example ambiguous, and while it may look OK in the TOC if it's a subheading, when linking to that section it's a disaster.

Like all pages it belongs to the project.
