Como Zoo — Name needs to be shorter.

Agree that name should be changed. However, not to shorten. The official name on the Web site is "Como Park Zoo & Conservatory", which is what we should use. Donlammers ( talk) 04:52, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
Oppose: the title would suggest that the zoo was in Como. Ian Spackman ( talk) 09:17, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
Oppose as there is no rule calling for articles to have the shortest possible name. Unless the length of the name causes confusion, there is no benefit to a shorter name. Accuracy and ease of access for users is the standard for determing article names. AaronTheTypoWarrior ( talk) 07:55, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
Merge into Como Park, Zoo, and Conservatory and redirect this page. -- Orlady ( talk) 18:45, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
Oppose move per WP:GOOGLE results below. Support merge into Como Park, Zoo, and Conservatory, though apparently the official name does not use commas. -- Born2cycle ( talk) 20:53, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
I was going to support the move, but then I consulted WP:GOOGLE.
Pretty clear "Como Zoo" is not the most common name. -- Born2cycle ( talk) 20:53, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: page moved to Como Zoo. Consensus this time seemed to indicate a move, although Zoo at Como Park Zoo and Conservatory was deemed unsuitable (perhaps because of redundancy). Mini apolis 14:24, 23 March 2013 (UTC)

Zoo at Como Park Zoo and Conservatory – It would make the main focus of the page clear while relating the article to the organization that it is apart of. Move should also be made off of move per
WP:GOOGLE results shown below. Could also be changed to
Como Zoo instead. I know that was sugested before but I'm not sure how he googled 'Como Zoo' before. When I googled it the search returned 4,180,000 results in 0.22 seconds.

Zoo at Como Park Zoo and Conservatory would associate it the with the organization the best possible way, but Como Zoo seems to be most commonly used. Como Zoo currently redirects to Como Park Zoo and Conservatory.± Abrown0013 ( talk) 09:15, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
Move to Como Zoo. On Highbeam, Como Zoo gets 451 matches, "Como Park and Conservatory" 63, and Como Zoo, Saint Paul, Minnesota gets zero. Kauffner ( talk) 12:46, 8 March 2013 (UTC)
