Well, thats the right name, the UABC has 3 main campuses, the main campus is Mexicali, followed by Tijuana and Ensenada campuses. Also I gonna create the article of the other 2 campus.Jcmenal (talk) 04:38, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

got it should be "Autonomous University of Baja California, Tijuana Campus"Jcmenal (talk) 05:15, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - The proposed name will make the title longer than it is already is and it is standard to have the "college, campus" format. For example: University of California, San Diego, University of California, Los Angeles, University of Nevada, Las Vegas. While campus could be added to the name, it will make it overly specific and too long. It is common for public universities to be followed simply by the name of the city/town they are in. 08OceanBeach^S.D. 05:20, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Is not the proposed name, is the right name and used in the websites as seen in Tijuana campus. This is a single university with 3 campus, not 3 different universities, a Mexican university with its own campus rules different from the US style. The length of the name?? really???.Jcmenal (talk) 05:29, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Wikipedia asks that the widely accepted English name be used, and that is what is being used. You may want to read WP:NCGN. Perhaps length was the wrong word to use. It may have been better said that adding campus is being overspecific. 08OceanBeach^S.D. 05:43, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
