see WP:USPLACE
Belchertown, Massachusetts → Belchertown – Belchertown is the only town or city in the United States using this name. There is no need to have Belchertown, Massachusetts, it is unnecessary. Belchertown currently redirects to the current page. Aidan721 (talk) 18:24, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

- Oppose WP:USPLACE -- 70.51.200.101 (talk) 00:21, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose. The current title falls under the WP:USPLACE guidelines, where almost all articles on populated places in the United States use the "Placename, State". This heavily, perennial debated guideline is currently under a moratorium for at least another month, so I would refrain from making an exception to this page at this time.
