How the fuck does a page about a lake this significant not get any references or external links? That is beyond me! AndrewEnns (talk) 07:47, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The water volume and residence time are wrong. 65 km by 100 m deep by 2 km wide is 13 km^3. The residence tim e is 17 to 25 years, not 0.74 years. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.66.22.27 (talk) 23:19, 18 November 2014(UTC)

It was proposed in this section that Chilko Lakeberenamed and movedtoTŝilhqox Biny. result: Moved. Also created Tsilhqox Biny as a {{R to diacritics}} redirect for simpler keyboard inputs.

Chilko Lake → Tŝilhqox Biny – Given that the lake has been officially renamed in 2019, shouldn't this article be moved to Tŝilhqox Biny, with a redirect from Chilko Lake? Admittedly, the WP:TITLE policy is a bit ambiguous, but I'm looking especially at WP:NATURALNESS which states that "title usually conveys what the subject is actually called in English" — granted, 'Tŝilhqox Biny' isn't English, but that is the official name now. Compare with eg. Mount McKinley > Denali. DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:39, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support WP:WIAN and general practice of WP:LAKES is if an official database for the body of water of a country sets a name it should be the one used as the article title, but make sure the other names are listed in the article, infobox, and Wikidata. All in all the move seems like the right choice. Wolfgang8741 says: If not you, then who? (talk) 23:18, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
