Description. The "Solent" area of Central Southern England isn't a county as such, but is arguably worth having its own WikiProject as it is one of the better mapped areas in the UK outside of the large cities.</div>

<b>Subject:</b> [Talk-GB] Removing "WikiProject" prefix</font>
<div> </div>
</div>
<div class="BodyFragment"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt;">
<div class="PlainText">Hi,<br>
<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>
