Bamunara Village → Bamunara (village) – "village" seems to be a disambiguator rather than an actual part of the name, so I suggest this be renamed per Wikipedia's disambiguation conventions. ~~~~

• Comment, there's also the village Bamunara , and neither seems like PTOPIC to me. Maybe they should both be disambiguated with DAB at base names, and additional disambiguation added.--Ortizesp (talk) 13:57, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
• Move to Bamunara, Purba Bardhaman, and move Bamunara → Bamunara, Paschim Bardhaman, as per above. 162 etc. (talk) 15:42, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
  • Support this alternative. Consistent with current practice and guidelines. Flip a coin (at worst) as to where Bamunara, Bamunara (village) and Bamunara Village should point and put a redirect hatnote there to point to the other. Andrewa (talk) 08:45, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
• Move to Bamunara, Purba Bardhaman district, and move Bamunara to Bamunara, Paschim Bardhaman district. Suffix district inline with articles Purba Bardhaman district and Paschim Bardhaman district. -- Ab207 (talk) 07:34, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

This would not follow established precedent with other articles at Category:Cities and towns in Paschim Bardhaman district and Category:Cities and towns in Purba Bardhaman district. 162 etc. (talk) 16:27, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

I believe district should be suffixed to be in-line with the main article and category. Although there no towns/cities named Purba Bardhaman, generally districts in India are named after eponymous towns. So a village (or town) would be a part of that district, but not the town its named after. -- Ab207 (talk) 18:10, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Perhaps you can bring it up at Wikipedia:WikiProject India. Your point is a valid one, although I believe leaving out "district" to keep the title concise is the best way to go. 162 etc. (talk) 00:48, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

Likewise. If that proposed naming convention gets consensus support, fine, but I'm skeptical that it will. The term district is necessary in those article titles, but not in the disambiguators as district is implied there. Andrewa (talk) 08:52, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
