KwezanaKhwezana – Town's spelling was corrected in 2015.[1] Sources were not provided when reverting bold move. Town is minuscule but I found one source using the new name.[2] We should adopt the more up to date name. Desertambition (talk) 14:44, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose, per WP:COMMONNAME. The nominator has been able to find only one source that uses the new name, though as the link is broken I have not been able to verify this. In comparison, a Google News search finds five English results for Kwezana since the name change, compared to none for Khwezana, and ngrams shows use for Kwezana since 2015 while the use of Khwezana was too low to register.
