Londonderry to Derry as Londonderry does not exist. Thanks 2A02:8084:51BF:6600:6843:DE48:31C4:A4CF (talk) 16:48, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not done as you haven't provided reliable sources to support your request. According to all the references and the article the county of Londonderry was created from County Coleraine and parts of Tyrone and Antrim. Unlike the city references and historical record indicates there was never a County Derry other than as a colloquial naming. Please provide evidence and references to the contrary if you wish to have the article altered. Thank you. Canterbury Tail talk 17:41, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Its County Derry. The county has a majority Catholic and Republican population. The county is referred to, and has been referred to as County Derry, not L*nd*nderry. Absolute virgin. Alaa kka (talk) 13:27, 3 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
