Hi Guliolopez, I see you moved [[Hrvatski nogometni klub Hajduk Split]] to an abbreviated name, citing the english language wikipedia's COMMONNAME convention. I've two issues with this. One, I am not aware of such a rule on Vicipéid or how severely it should be applied. Two, HNK Hajduk Split isn't a common name anyway, it's an abbreviated name. Hajduk Split would be a common name but if we were to title pages like that then we would have pages like ''Man United'' and ''Inter Milan'', presuming that those are indeed common names as Gaeilge. I agree with abbreviating titles where the title is too long but I don't think that applies here. Sláinte. [[Úsáideoir:Onetonycousins|Onetonycousins]] 20:22, 25 Deireadh Fómhair 2010 (UTC)
 
:Hi. (1) We do apply a COMMONNAME convention here. It's not enshrined, but we do follow/apply one. (2) Just about every other Wiki (including the [[:hr:HNK Hajduk Split|local project]]) uses "HNK Hajduk Split" rather than the long form. (3) I'm not sure "Man Utd" or "Inter" are valid corollaries. While those abbreviations are in common use "verbally", the relevant clubs and leagues don't typically refer to themselves as "Man Utd" or "Inter". On the other hand, the [http://www.hajduk.hr/ club itself], the relevant league, and [http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/clubs/club=52359/index.html UEFA] all use short forms of "HNK Hajduk Split". In summary, it's probably better to use the most common officially sanctioned form - over long/verbose/overly formal names. [[Úsáideoir:Guliolopez|Guliolopez]] 22:42, 25 Deireadh Fómhair 2010 (UTC)
