Thanks for consulting the list for feedback before making the change,
such a big change like this should be discussed first.

For the following proposals I added the English and Pitjantjatjara
explicitly because Uluru has some translated names.
My preferred proposal for both features:
name = Uluṟu
name:en = Uluru
name:pjt = Uluṟu
alt_name = Ayers Rock
alt_name:en = Ayers Rock
official_name = Uluru / Ayers Rock
official_name:en = Uluru / Ayers Rock
+1
+1
I'm also okay with either alt_name or old_name for "Ayers Rock", with
a slight preference to "old_name".
Some would argue that the true old name is Uluru. :)
I think alt_name is probably the better choice.
Uluru seems to be generally seen as the preferred name nowadays in
Australia. I played a bit with Google Trends to see the extent
(https://trends.google.de/trends/explore?date=all&geo=AU&q=ayers%20rock,uluru)
The official name is the dual name Uluru / Ayers Rock
(http://www.ntlis.nt.gov.au/placenames/view.jsp?id=10532)
The park is co-operated by Anangu and the Australian Government and
names it Uluru exclusively
(https://parksaustralia.gov.au/uluru/about/ayers-rock-or-uluru/)
I agree.
Older ozies are more used to Ayers Rock... I still use it as I don't
remember how to spell Uluru always and that is what I am used to.

So, with such a mish-mash of underlined & non- names, my own
preference would be:
name = Uluru / Ayers Rock
name:en = Uluru / Ayers Rock
name:pjt = Uluṟu
old_name = Ayers Rock
old_name:en = Ayers Rock
if we need to specify name:en, if not, simply
name = Uluru / Ayers Rock
name:pjt = Uluṟu
old_name = Ayers Rock
I'd prefer Joachim's proposal, I relegating Ayers Rock to as part of
the official_name and either the old_name or alt_name. I believe most
of the signage within the park uses the exclusive term "Uluru".
