→South as a direction: I'll move it tomorrow unless I hear otherwise
So in summary of all that, the options seem to be:
So in summary of all that, the options seem to be:
*''The South'' - Somewhat easy to find and colloquially reasonable, but not very encyclopedic. Mr. Schlafly peviously moved the page from this title to here
*''The South'' - Somewhat easy to find and colloquially reasonable, but not very encyclopedic. Mr. Schlafly previously moved the page from this title to here
*South (region) - Easy to find and slightly more accurate, but still ambiguous
*South (region) - Easy to find and slightly more accurate, but still ambiguous
*South (American region) - Easy to find and fairly accurate (though it could refer to South America), but clumsy

::::::There was quite an eruption of talk and attention when this topic came up, including several people with move privileges. Everyone had a different idea, and I didn't want to unilaterally make the choice. However, nothing has been happening recently, so perhaps it is time to move. If I don't hear anything by tomorrow, I'll plan on moving this to "South (U.S. region)" with redirects a-plenty. Andy Schlafly probably has a point, but I don't want to assume that since I've only heard the term in my country, it is only used in my country. It seems that someone, somewhere in the world must call the southern region of their country "the south" so "South (U.S. region)" makes the most sense to me. In any case, this shouldn't stay as "south." --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup><small>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</small></sup> 19:50, 18 November 2016 (EST)
