Are there multiple Xindians in Taiwan? Are the others notable? If not, then why this move? We don't say "San Antonio, Bexar", we say "San Antonio, Texas". We don't say "Hannover, Lower Saxony", we say "Hannover, Germany". When specifying locations in Taiwan, English speakers normally use "Taiwan" if they need to clarify where in the world they are talking about. Only if there is some potential for confusion (i.e. there are multiple locations in Taiwan having the same name) do they use more specific information such as the county name.

Why don't we stick with the common name, given that the old name Sindian is still a lot more common in the English language? 202.64.189.90 (talk) 18:24, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
