Proposed move to Sao Chingcha[edit]

I'd like to propose that this article be moved to Sao Chingcha for the following reasons:

  1. The name “Sao” “Chingcha” is used in the Tourism Authority of Thailand's website. [1]
  2. Whilst people searching for “Giant Swing” on Google much more often than “Sao Chingcha” or “Sao Ching Cha” according to Google Trends[2], searching for “Giant Swing” on Duckduckgo would bring up search results unrelated to the Sao Chingcha.
  3. Even though a lot of website uses the term “Giant Swing”, they're often accompanied by the term “Sao Chingcha” or “Sao Ching Cha”[3]

I'm aware that such page move would be quite a violation of WP:TRANSLITERATE thus I'd like to bring this to the talk page first.

Wikipedia's guidelines are pretty clear. We should follow the name most commonly used by English-language reliable sources, other factors notwithstanding. (What users tend to search for isn't quite relevant.) And "Giant Swing" is much, much more common. --Paul_012 (talk) 17:23, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see. I suppose I don't have to care about other places that are also named “Giant Swing”. Thank you very much for your response. Jothefiredragon🐲talk🐉edits 10:13, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We'll begin to care when there are other giant swing articles created on Wikipedia. Then hatnotes will probably be needed to point readers to the correct article. If there are many, a dismabiguation page may be needed. See WP:Disambiguation for details. --Paul_012 (talk) 11:04, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have seen a lot of WP:Disambiguation pages, but I didn't know that such text are called WP:hatnotes!. Again, thank you very much :) Jothefiredragon🐲talk🐉edits 05:49, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
