Remeove the term " LondonDerry"

Derry/Londonderry is used to name the town of Derry/Londonderry.

Londonderry is not used to cover the county as a whole which is what this page represents. The County is Derry but the town is called Derry or Londonderry depending on your background.

For god's sake, let it go. WP:DERRY. Virtually the entire talk page is this request, over and over and over, being refused, over and over and over.

There has never been a county officially called Derry. The town was originally called Derry and was later renamed Londonderry. The county was founded as Londonderry, having formerly been called County Coleraine. --Nicknack009 (talk) 07:00, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. Though clearly County Londonderry is far larger than that of Coleraine as it included parts of other counties. I'm more surprised that for requests like this one that they didn't bother to read the article first of all it would have refuted their view and need to post this request.
