Maui County → Maui County, Hawaii – This page was originally named "Maui County, Hawaii," but a name change (so far unremarked upon) on 24 March 2025 moved the page to "Maui County." Outside of consolidated city-counties or New York City, I am unaware of any county-level entity without the state name in the title. Los Angeles County is probably the most well-known county name, and its page name is still "Los Angeles County, California." No other county in Hawaii has been renamed this way, either. I have no reason to believe that this sort of renaming will become more common, but it seems important to establish a norm that removing the state from a county page name is not an appropriate exercise of concision or precision in page titles.

• Support per WP:USPLACE. Could probably be done technically as this is reversing an undiscussed move. Skynxnex (talk) 13:40, 30 July 2025 (UTC)

  I had that thought, but I hesitated in doing so because it was reverting a previous page move, and it seemed safer to proceed with a consensus than to act totally on my own. PA Uploader (talk) 14:59, 30 July 2025 (UTC)

  Sure. In case you didn't know, you can use the revert undiscussed move part of WP:RM/TR which means at least one other person agrees it was recent enough and undiscussed, for future reference. Skynxnex (talk) 15:17, 30 July 2025 (UTC)

  I didn't know. Thank you! PA Uploader (talk) 16:53, 30 July 2025 (UTC)

I did the move and I'm not sure how I missed this. Tag me in the future! :) Or, I should say, tag the person who did the undiscussed move. The move back is fine by me. I wasn't aware of WP:USPLACE, and if I'm understanding correctly, that overrules WP:CONCISE. Personally, I think concision should take precedence over consistency (I mean, there's only one Maui County in the world, so no possible ambiguity), but that's a broader conversation that I'm not prepared to have. — W.andrea (talk) 01:19, 5 August 2025 (UTC)
