Teide or Mount Teide?
In English, it's called Mount Teide, so shouldn't this be the article name, as per
]- Thanks for raising this point. A Google search for "Teide" (excluding "Mount Teide" and "Mt Teide") gives me about 5,400,000 web pages in English. So, "Teide" is an English name for the mountain. A Google search for "Mount Teide" gives me about 336,000 web pages. A Google search for "Mt. Teide" gives me about 41,000 web pages. This suggests to me that "Teide" is the English WP:COMMONNAME; therefore I think that "Teide" is an acceptable name to continue using for this article's title. I suggest that the start of the first sentence of the article could be changed from "Mount Teide" to "Teide, or Mount Teide" for improved accuracy, completeness and consistency.
