Nautical mile[edit]

why would the distance of the airport from Paris be expressed in nautical miles? It's in France, for goodness sake, the inventors of the metric system. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.205.3.113 (talk) 14:39, 18 June 2010 (UTC) Agreed. That’s a very odd choice. I’m going to change it, and see what happens. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.183.74.212 (talk) 22:08, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Orly AirportParis–Orly Airport – No definite consensus for use of disputed common name "Orly Airport" over the official English language name. Also to get this article title in consistency with all other major french airports, which use a dash in their title. --Relisted.

  • Oppose just because we generally prefer titles to concisely communicate what they are about. (I feel like a meme could be effectively used here.) Red Slash 22:21, 26 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support as per WP:OFFICIAL. See: http://airport-orly.com/ We fundamentally prefer titles to communicate what they are about. Gregkaye 06:54, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, official documentation calls it Paris-Orly (the website quoted by Gregkaye is not official at all) Slasher-fun (talk) 09:17, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Per WP:COMMONNAME, we should use the most common name, not necessarily the official name. Even the nominator states that "Orly Airport" is the common name. Vanjagenije (talk) 20:57, 2 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Evidence of common usage one way or the other, please. Dekimasuよ! 22:17, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per comments on Charles de Gaulle Airport and per Vanjagenije. SnowFire (talk) 23:46, 9 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
