Strongly oppose - primacy, google hits etc are not what wikipedia should be about - the previous mess of the shifts between Perth, Western Australia and Perth show an unhelpful approach for the reader. Anyone with the slightest memories of the arguments about Perth would understand that proposals and requested moves like these are not a productive or even useful exercise. It should be abandoned while there is hope... satusuro 12:55, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, just to mention that the fact "Transport for Perth" comes up with the most results is quite natural seeing as those results would include results for the 20-odd other places worldwide that are called Perth. --Rushton2010 (talk) 22:54, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That level synchronicity normally happens when WP:PRIMARYTOPIC is resolved but as it involved WP:ARBCOM I think noone was actually willing to take on the task for fear of being caught in a backlash resulting from the unsatisfactory method in which the naming was resolved.
