longest place name

[edit]

i doubt anyone will revert me on this but i'm posting here to put what i couldn't fit in the edit summary .... no, Mooselookmeguntic Lake isnt the longest placename, and it isnt particularly close. There are a lot of place names composed of many words, just to start with. For example, Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts is longer even without counting the dashes. And some placenames have short names and long names .... consider the full length name of Los Angeles for example. Even if we restrict it to the longest word within a name, it still doesnt win.

If we want to put this back in, we'd need to put so many conditions on that i think it would cheapen the novelty of the name, which is beautiful just by itself. Let's just leave it the way it is. Soap 19:20, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
