move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
I am finally getting round to clearing up the mess left by Balkan pov-warriors who were successful for several years. Is a string of undiscussed moves OK if one side gets the upper hand over the other for a longer period? I don't see any policy basis for such an approach. For what it's worth, I've also removed a lot of copyvio, of a similar vintage, in this area; should that be returned to article-space too since it went unnoticed for years?

There are several back-and-forth moves in the page history, but as Labattblueboy notes, it has been at this title for a long time. Let's have a discussion here and try to establish a consensus title.

Dekimasu, why on earth did you move this page back to Đeravica Lake again, reverting @
Anthony Appleyard:? If we're undoing a series of problematic undiscussed moves, shouldn't we return to the original title rather than give the advantage to the move-warriors?

Oppose - common name is Đeravica (although the Đ is often substituted with Dj or D when the keyboard doesn't have the character). Further, linguistically, the name's origin is from Serbia (compare with another location name further away:
Đerdap), the word suffix is a common Slavic one, and "Gjeravica" is just the transcription of the word to the Albanian alphabet, where the first letter simply has been replaced with the closest sound in Albanian. -
