Talk:Gongbei Port of Entry

Question

Is "Gongbei" only the name of the border crossing itself, or it the name of the entire area? I've had a hard time figuring this out. If the latter, should this article be moved to Gongbei Point of Entry instead? Heimstern Läufer (talk) 04:10, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Gongbei Port of Entry → Gongbei Port – Fixed malformed request. Original nominator was 119.236.251.39. Themeparkgc  Talk  05:14, 14 May 2011 (UTC)?

• Comment but it's not a port, it's a port of entry... 184.144.163.181 (talk) 10:53, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
  • Gongbei Port is the official name. Alternative suggestion for the title would be Gongbei Port (port of entry). 119.236.251.39 (talk) 11:36, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
    • The building may say "Gongbei Port" but that does not necessarily make it the official name. Haven't bothered to check thoroughly yesterday when I was in Gongbei, but I'm under the impression that 口岸 can't be akin to 港口. --Sky Harbor ^(talk) 07:39, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
• Comment I can't do a proper research right now, but perhaps before we rename this one, we should decide on a common pattern for naming articles for such border crossing facilities in PRC, based on the use in reliable sources. In the List of Canada – United States border crossings, for example, we do use the generic expression "port of entry", so perhaps it's OK to keep the term here as well. -- Vmenkov (talk) 19:02, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
