[[:Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English)]] → {{no redirect|Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English-language sources)}} – "Use English" implies that the general convention is to use the English names for things, when in fact this guideline says that the name most commonly used in English-language sources (that is, not necessarily an English name) should be used. <span style="position: relative; top: -0.5em;">꧁</span>[[User:Zanahary|Zanahary]]<span style="position: relative; top: -0.5em;">꧂</span> 15:08, 1 December 2024 (UTC)

*:Titles of works cannot be considered loan words; the title of ''[[Mein Kampf]]'' cannot be said to be in English, yet it matches English-language sources. <span style="position: relative; top: -0.5em;">꧁</span>[[User:Zanahary|Zanahary]]<span style="position: relative; top: -0.5em;">꧂</span> 22:54, 1 December 2024 (UTC)

*'''Support''' (with the change suggested by Zzyzx11). This is one of the most frequently misunderstood parts of PAG. I often see it used to oppose a clear [[WP:COMMONNAME]] because the proposed title, although the most common name in English, isn't ''from'' English (eg. preferring "Ayers Rock" over [[Uluru]] and using [[WP:USEENGLISH]] as the rationale). Amending the title to specify that it should be the name as used in English-language sources would partially help to alleviate this confusion, and would better match the wording of the guideline.
