It appears only ''anonymous'' users want to change the name. Any as of March 23, 2019, the name dispute is still continuing, but this time, changing the name throughout the article, so it's inconsistent with the title. I've reverted the changes as a reviewer consistent with consensus here, thereby inadvertantly entering into the content dispute. Blah! It's a legitimate dispute, nobody's right or wrong here. When I googled 'Belagavi', it returned results for 'Belgaum'! We need stability, and I'm voting to leave the name as is. ] (]) 21:20, 23 March 2019 (UTC)

::{{ping|More eminence}} Check my revision and the accompanying edit summary. The term was said by Thackeray in the source, so I've added it in the paragraph and did not remove it.

Secondly, it should be part of the ''Government and politics'' main section since the dispute is a political one. - ] (]) 18:15, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

First thing let me tell you it's not just a political one , it's a dispute which even common people of the city aslo participate with any political intentions. It's a part of city since independence and city has got national recognition for this dispute which is between two States.Secondary when uddhav Thackeray says it he was a chief minister of a state which means it was a voice of 12 crore population of Maharashtra whom he represents and not a single person.Even this issue is acknowledged in the Maharashtra assembly also so it's not a small topic as you think . And yes link in header is wrong and I accept it but it should be a seperate header. Hope you got my point brother ] (]) 18:25, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

:Misplaced Pages has its own rules which are different from the politics and other things of the region the Misplaced Pages article is dealing with.

Sure I totally respect to the rules of Misplaced Pages.But just wanted that the dispute is an important aspect of belgaum city , it's not a simple political agenda for sure .

But just wanted the header to be mentioned as "karnataka occupied Maharashtra" as well because this is the name by which local people reffer it to and even entire Maharashtra as reffer it as same , so I request you to kindly permit me to mention "karnataka occupied Maharashtra" in the header as well .

:No, ''Karnataka-occupied Maharashtra'' or ''Karnataka-occupied areas'' is most likely used by Marathi speakers only, and not by Kannadigas or anyone else in the world most likely.

Needs change of city name to Belagavi

The name of the city has been officially changed as Belagavi on 1st November 2014 by Government of Karnataka, with approval of Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India. Djsourabh.bwd (talk) 17:37, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

Look at the section immediately above this one - there was a requested move discussion about this, which failed. MrOllie (talk) 17:38, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
If not, change the name of this page Djsourabh.bwd (talk) 17:42, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
No. It was decided not to do that in the RM discussion above. MrOllie (talk) 17:55, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

Change of title from Belgaum to Belagavi.

Majority of the English speakers use the name Belagavi in their conversations. It is now time to change the title of this page from Belgaum to Belagavi. 2409:40F2:1007:3A71:98F:9C80:3DA4:EA2B (talk) 08:56, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Article name must be changed to Belagavi.

On 1st November 2014, names of 12 Karnataka cities changed. Belgaum was changed as Belagavi. Then union home minister Rajnath Singh gave his approval to the proposal of the Karnataka government made on October 27, 2006 to change the names of the 12 towns and cities in consonance with their pronunciation in Kannada language. <ref>url=https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/karnataka-belgaum-mysore-names-of-12-cities-changed-kannada-223614-2014-10-17<ref> Djsourabh.bwd (talk) 09:06, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

We obviously know that, since the article clearly states "Belgaum also Belgaon and officially known as Belagavi".
As this is the English Misplaced Pages, we use the Common name in English, not the Official name, or the name in Kannada. If the common name in English eventually changes, we will change our article title, as we did with Mumbai. However Bangalore was changed to Bengaluru in 2006, and the continued use of Bangalore for our article title has passed 14 move discussions. - Arjayay (talk) 10:30, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
Its not true. You have a misconception. Belagavi is the only common name. From city to district administration every official government website uses Belagavi.
Apart from that all national level medias use the common name Belagavi. For your reference :

Kindly respect the emotions of local people. Don't do false common name statements here. Djsourabh.bwd (talk) 18:56, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
Please read the WP:COMMONNAME policy properly. We use the commonly used name in English language sources from all over the world. "respect the emotions of local people" ← doesn't work like that otherwise we would have name the Germany article as Deutschland. Latter is just a redirect similar to Belagavi in this case. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 19:02, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
