<p>Hi, Jez.</p>
<p>Thank you for commenting.</p>
<p>I don't know if there's a convention about this. It seems that
every community uses one scheme or another according to their own
preferences. Some countries use "United Kingdom Railways" and
others "United Kingdom/Railways". I don't have preferences for one
or the other.<br>
<br>
In the pages of the US mapping project I used the scheme "United
States/Railways", "United States/Boundaries", etc. They use two
schemes, both with "/" and without "/". For example, there are
pages like "United States/Projects" and others like "United States
roads tagging" or "United States admin level". All the pages of
the United States mapping project are in the category
"Category:United States", so they are easy to find even if they
have different names.<br>
<br>
I would only remove the prefix "WikiProject" from the pages
related to the UK mapping project. I usually use subpages to keep
all the pages related to the mapping project in the same page
tree. However, I understand that other solutions are also
possible.</p>
<p>If your community have a preference, I'll do what you prefer.</p>

<br>
I am Daniel, from Spain. I would like to change the
name of the wiki <br>
pages related to the United Kingdom mapping project
to remove the <br>
"Wikiproject" prefix according to the pages name
conventions [1].<br>
<br>
The name of the pages related to the United Kingdom
mapping project <br>
would be "United Kingdom" (name of place) instead of
"Wikiproject United <br>
Kingdom", as recommended by the wiki conventions. It
is a change that I <br>
have already made in United States [2], Canada [3],
Spain [4], Australia <br>
[5], New Zealand [6], South Africa [7], and all
Spanish-speaking <br>
countries [8] on the Wiki. The pages of Israel,
Denmark and Philippines <br>
have also been renamed.<br>
<br>
Many pages of the UK mapping project have already
been renamed. Only a <br>
few remain. I could make the necessary changes. All
pages with <br>
"WikiProject" prefix will be redirected
automatically. There will be no <br>
broken links in any case. I'll make sure everything
works correctly, <br>
just like now.<br>
<br>
Do you like the idea? There was already a discussion
in the wiki about <br>
this subject [9].<br>
<br>
Thank you for you attention! Greetings from Spain.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Daniel<br>
