and its talk page where the matter was discussed and

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expulsion_of_Poles
(just created the disambig)

As I see it, there are two big arguments here:
* the naming of post-WWII population transfer should be the same, for 
consistency and NPOV
* the naming should correspond with academic usage
My past research into this, unfortunately, shows that the two above are 
in this case contradicting one another :(

Strategically, it will be easier to move (rename) the Polish topic than 
the German, even through the "X population transfers" may be the best 
(most neutral) option.
