Kat O → Crooked Island, Hong Kong – Relisted. Vegaswikian (talk) 04:41, 23 October 2011 (UTC) The official name of the island is Crooked Island. minghong (talk) 07:56, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
- Comment but what is the common name? 70.24.251.158 (talk) 05:23, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
- The island is known as Crooked Island. But Kat O is also used, especially for the villages and buildings, e.g. Kat O Fisherman Village, Kat O School. The situation is similar to Grass Island (Tap Mun) and Double Island (Wong Wan Chau). --minghong (talk) 02:17, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
- Comment. Not sure it's the common name, gnews search gives 35 results for "Kat O" Hong Kong compared to 20 for "Crooked Island" Hong Kong. Jenks24 (talk) 01:43, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: not moved. —innotata 02:02, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
Kat O → Crooked Island, Hong Kong – Crooked Island is the English name, and it is used more often in English sources when referring to the island as opposed to other features on the island. Bejnar (talk) 15:05, 2 September 2014 (UTC) --Bejnar (talk) 15:05, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose: "used more often in English" is certainly not obvious, seems like a personal perception. Probably something in the neighborhood of 50/50. Many Google results will return something like "Kat O, also known as Crooked Island". The exact same discussion was closed 3 years ago without consensus, and that was fine. The island hasn't moved and the name hasn't changed, and most people here certainly have no strong opinion either way. So let's keep the title of this article the way it has been since I have created it, 10 years ago. I would rather see people adding content than having a sterile discussion about which of the 2 names mentioned in the article should be the actual name of the article. Olivier (talk) 20:29, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose This has been discussed previously. No new evidence is presented. Please make some effort to show evidence that this is the best name. Blue Rasberry (talk) 14:13, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
