One would think that the French name of a part of the sea between England and France should be mentioned in the first paragraph of its article, especially when the English name is "The English Channel"... 123popos123 (talk) 21:06, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
In the French article the English name is there, and in the English article about the straight of Dover the French name is there... I'm putting it in. 123popos123 (talk) 21:11, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You dont just do this because you want to? You need refs and sources and a consensus. The whole world calls it the English Channel, no-one apart from a small part of france use the french name. If you want to make this it goes as a small addion much lower down in the article once you have correct sources and reached consensus — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C4:22D:CA01:389A:812D:CBD:83B (talk) 16:49, 28 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Your comment is so funny I suspect that you are trying to troll. A little part of France uses it... Which part uses English Channel? That would be interesting to know your sources. Besides this, in the neighboring countries, I thought it was Ärmelkanal, Manica, Mànega, Mancha... Very weird ways to say English Channel IMHO. Birdie (talk) 13:36, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You're right. I've commented it out (so that if someone else can justify it here and write an explanation about it in the appropriate place, it's still there waiting). Bazza (talk) 20:09, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
