Wikipedia:Requested moves
This page has an administrative backlog that requires the attention of willing administrators. This notice will be automatically removed by RMCD bot (talk) when the backlog is cleared. |
Requested moves is a process for requesting the retitling (moving) of an article, template, or project page on Wikipedia. For retitling files, categories and other items, see When not to use this page.
Please read the article titling policy and the guideline regarding primary topics before moving a page or requesting a page move.
Any autoconfirmed user can use the Move function to perform most moves (see Help:How to move a page). If you have no reason to expect a dispute concerning a move, be bold and move the page. However, it may not always be possible or desirable to do this:
- Technical reasons may prevent a move; for example, a page may already exist at the target title and require deletion, or the page may be protected from moves. See: § Requesting technical moves.
- Requests to revert recent, undiscussed, controversial moves may be made at WP:RM/TR. If the new name has not become the stable title, the undiscussed move will be reverted. If the new name has become the stable title, a requested move will be needed to determine the article's proper location.
- A title may be disputed, and discussion may be necessary to reach consensus: see § Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves. The requested moves process is not mandatory, and sometimes an informal discussion at the article's talk page can help reach consensus.
- A page should not be moved and a new move discussion should not be opened when there is already an open move request on a talk page. Instead, please participate in the open discussion.
- Unregistered and new (not yet autoconfirmed) users are unable to move pages.
Requests are generally processed after seven days. If consensus to move the page is reached at or after this time, a reviewer will carry out the request. If there is a consensus not to move the page, the request will be closed as "not moved". When consensus remains unclear, the request may be relisted to allow more time for consensus to develop, or the discussion may be closed as "no consensus". See Wikipedia:Requested moves/Closing instructions for more details on the process.
Wikipedia:Move review can be used to contest the outcome of a move request as long as all steps are followed. If a discussion on the closer's talk page does not resolve an issue, then a move review will evaluate the close of the move discussion to determine whether or not the contested close was reasonable and consistent with the spirit and intent of common practice, policies, and guidelines.
When not to use this page
Separate processes exist for moving certain types of pages, and for changes other than page moves:
- Making an uncontroversial move – if you can, be bold and do it yourself! If you can't, see § Requesting technical moves.
- Renaming a category – propose the move at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion.
- Renaming a stub template – propose the move at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion.
- Renaming an image or other file – see Wikipedia:Moving a page § Moving a file page.
- Moves from draft namespace or user space to article space – Unconfirmed users: add
{{subst:submit}}
to the top of the article. See Wikipedia:Articles for creation. Confirmed users: Move the page yourself. - Merging two articles – make a request at Wikipedia:Proposed mergers, or be bold and do it yourself.
- Splitting an article – make a request at Wikipedia:Proposed article splits, or be bold and do it yourself.
- Requesting that page histories be merged – list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge.
- Contesting a move request close – use the Wikipedia:Move review process.
Undiscussed moves
Autoconfirmed editors may move a page without discussion if all of the following apply:
- No article exists at the new target title;
- There has been no previous discussion about the title of the page that expressed any objection to a new title; and
- It seems unlikely that anyone would reasonably disagree with the move.
If you disagree with a prior bold move, and the new title has not been in place for a long time, you may revert the move yourself. If you cannot revert the move for technical reasons, then you may request a technical move.
Move wars are disruptive, so if you make a bold move and it is reverted, do not make the move again. Instead, follow the procedures laid out in § Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves.
Requesting technical moves
If you are unable to complete a move for technical reasons, you can request technical help below. This is the correct method if you tried to move a page, but you got an error message saying something like "You do not have permission to move this page, for the following reasons:..." or "The/This page could not be moved, for the following reason:..."
If you are here because you want an admin to approve of your new article or your proposed page move, you are in the wrong place.

- To list a technical request: Uncontroversial technical requests subsection and insert the following code at the bottom of the list, filling in pages and reason:
This will automatically insert a bullet and include your signature. Please do not edit the article's talk page.{{subst:RMassist|current page title|new title|reason=edit summary for the move}}
the - If you object to a proposal listed in the uncontroversial technical requests section, please move the request to the Contested technical requests section, append a note on the request elaborating on why, and sign with ~~~~. Consider pinging the requester to let them know about the objection.
- If your technical request is contested, or if a contested request is left untouched without reply, create a requested move on the article talk and remove the request from the section here. The fastest and easiest way is to click the "discuss" button at the request, save the talk page, and remove the entry on this page.
Technical requests
Uncontroversial technical requests
- Kogi State University → Prince Abubakar Audu University (currently a redirect back to Kogi State University) (move · discuss) – the intended page acts as a redirect to the article, should be moved as the redirect page name is the current and official name of the university. Jõsé hola 09:42, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- Ar-pi-uck-i → Abiaka (currently a redirect back to Ar-pi-uck-i) (move · discuss) – It should be the title because it's more concise and it is the spelling of his name used by the Seminole Tribe of Florida and modern historians. Ygolirt (talk) 08:46, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Braathens Regional Aviation → Malmö Aviation (currently a redirect back to Braathens Regional Aviation) (move · discuss) – Reflect main name of Airline. Avoid confusion Officialworks (talk) 20:08, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Fatawā of Osama bin Laden → Fatāwā of Osama bin Laden (currently a redirect back to Fatawā of Osama bin Laden) (move · discuss) – Missing macron. CyberOne25 (talk) 23:04, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- @CyberOne25 the entire article, except for the opening, uses "fatwā" consistently, and has been stable at that. – robertsky (talk) 00:51, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- KTAV Publishing House → Ktav Publishing House (currently a redirect back to KTAV Publishing House) (move · discuss) – ALL CAPS looks like a marketing thing. Except in the introduction and infobox, the article uses "Ktav". The New York Times uses "Ktav"; see [1], or [view-source:https://www.nytimes.com/1992/12/20/nyregion/where-the-elves-wear-yarmulkes.html?pagewanted=all view source] if you don't have a subscription. Even the company's own website, where you'd expect KTAV to be consistent, uses "Ktav" repeatedly in their about-us page. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 04:08, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
Requests to revert undiscussed moves
- Northgate Station (shopping mall) → Northgate Mall (Seattle) (currently a redirect back to Northgate Station (shopping mall)) (move · discuss) – Requesting revert of somewhat recent undiscussed move from the very stable original article title. "Northgate Station" has major article title WP:CRITERIA issues vs. "Northgate Mall" that should be discussed in a requested move. PK-WIKI (talk) 07:39, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
Contested technical requests
- Darren Baker (baseball) → Darren Baker (move · discuss) – the baseball player has more significance than the footballer, thus more people will be searching for him on Wikipedia Songwaters (talk) 23:12, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- @Songwaters Current arrangement is fine considering WP:RECENTISM. – robertsky (talk) 00:56, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
Administrator needed
The discussion process is used for potentially controversial moves. A move is potentially controversial if either of the following applies:
- there has been any past debate about the best title for the page;
- someone could reasonably disagree with the move.
Use this process if there is any reason to believe a move would be contested. For technical move requests, such as to correct obvious typographical errors, see Requesting technical moves. The technical moves procedure can also be used for uncontroversial moves when the requested title is occupied by an existing article.
Do not create a new move request when one is already open on the same talk page. Instead, consider contributing to the open discussion if you would like to propose another alternative. Multiple closed move requests may be on the same page, but each should have a unique section heading.
Do not create a move request to rename one or more redirects. Redirects cannot be used as current titles in requested moves.
Requesting a single page move
To request a single page move, click on the "New section" (or "Add topic") tab of the talk page of the article you want moved, without adding a new subject/header, inserting this code:
{{subst:requested move|New name|reason=Place here your rationale for the proposed page name change, ideally referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support where appropriate. If your reasoning includes search engine results, please prioritize searches limited to reliable sources (e.g. books, news, scholarly papers) over other web results. You don't need to add your signature at the end, as this template will do so automatically.}}
Replace New name
with the requested new name of the page (or with a simple question mark, if you want more than one possible new name to be considered). The template will automatically create the heading "Requested move 3 September 2024" and sign the post for you.
There is no need to edit the article in question. Once the above code is added to the Talk page, a bot will automatically add the following notification at the top of the affected page:
A request that this page title be changed is under discussion. Please do not move this page until the discussion is closed. |
Unlike other request processes on Wikipedia, such as Requests for comment, nominations need not be neutral. Make your point as best you can; use evidence (such as Google Ngrams and pageview statistics) and refer to applicable policies and guidelines, especially our article titling policy and the guideline on disambiguation and primary topics.
WikiProjects may subscribe to Article alerts to receive RM notifications. For example, Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Article alerts/Requested moves is transcluded to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Biography. RMCD bot notifies many of the other Wikiprojects listed on the talk page of the article to be moved to invite project members to participate in the RM discussion. Requesters should feel free to notify any other Wikiproject or noticeboard that might be interested in the move request, as long as this notification is neutral.
Single page move on a different talk page
Occasionally, a move request must be made on a talk page other than the talk page of the page to be moved. For example, a request to rename Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Resources to Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Reviewing and templates would need to take place at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Articles for creation because the talk page of the project page to be moved, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Articles for creation/Resources, is a redirect to that centralized discussion page. In this type of case, the requested move should be made using the following code:
{{subst:requested move|reason=(the reason for the page move goes here).|current1=(present title of page to be renamed)|new1=(proposed title of page)}}
The |1=
unnamed parameter is not used. The |current1=
and |new1=
parameters are used similar to multiple page moves described below.
Requesting multiple page moves
A single template may be used to request multiple related moves. On one of the talk pages of the affected pages, create a request and format it as below. A sample request for three page moves is shown here (for two page moves, omit the lines for current3 and new3). For four page moves, add lines for current4 and new4, and so on. There is no technical limit on the number of multiple move requests, but before requesting very large multi-moves, consider whether a naming convention should be changed first. Discuss that change on the talk page for the naming convention, e.g., Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (sportspeople).
To request a multiple page move, edit at the bottom of the talk page of the article you chose for your request, without adding a new header, inserting this code:
{{subst:requested move
| current1 = Current title of page 1
| new1 = New title for page 1 with the talk page hosting this discussion
| current2 = Current title of page 2
| new2 = New title for page 2
| current3 = Current title of page 3
| new3 = New title for page 3
| reason = Place here your rationale for the proposed page name change, ideally referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support where appropriate. If your reasoning includes search engine results, please prioritize searches limited to reliable sources (e.g. books, news, scholarly papers) over other web results. You don't need to add your signature at the end, as this template will do so automatically.
}}
For example, to propose moving the articles Wikipedia
and Wiki
, put this template on Talk:Wikipedia
with current1
set to Wikipedia
and current2
set to Wiki
. The discussion for all affected articles is held on the talk page of the article where the template is placed (Talk:Wikipedia
). Do not sign the request with ~~~~
, since the template does this automatically (so if you sign it yourself there will be two copies of your signature at the end of the request). Do not skip pairs of numbers.
RMCD bot automatically places a notice section on the talk page of all pages that are included in your request except the one hosting the discussion, to call attention to the move discussion that is in progress and to suggest that all discussion for all of the pages included in the request should take place at that one hosting location.
For multi-move discussions hosted on a page which is itself proposed to be moved, it is not necessary to include the |current1=Current title of page 1
for the page hosting the discussion, as its current title can be inferred automatically. Occasionally the discussions for significant multi-move requests may be hosted on WikiProject talk pages or other pages in Project namespace, in which case it is necessary to include |current1=
to indicate the first article to be moved.
Request all associated moves explicitly
Please list every move that you wish to have made in your request. For example, if you wish to move Cricket (disambiguation) to Cricket because you do not believe the sport is the primary topic for the search term "Cricket", then you actually want to move two pages, both Cricket (disambiguation) and Cricket. Thus you must list proposed titles for each page affected by your request. For example, you might propose:
If a new title is not proposed for the sport, it is more difficult to achieve consensus for a new title for that article. A move request that does not show what to do with the material at its proposed target, such as:
is incomplete. Such requests may be completed as a request to decide the best new title by discussion.
- Cricket → ?
If a disambiguation page is in the way of a move, the request may be completed as proposing to add (disambiguation).

Commenting on a requested move
All editors are welcome to contribute to the discussion regarding a requested page move. There are a number of standards that Wikipedians should practice in such discussions:
- When editors recommend a course of action, they write Support or Oppose in bold text, which is done by surrounding the word with three single quotes on each side, e.g.
'''Support'''
. - Comments or recommendations are added on a new bulleted line (that is, starting with *) and signed by adding
~~~~
to the end. Responses to another editor are threaded and indented using multiple bullets. - The article itself should be reviewed before any recommendation is made; do not base recommendations solely on the information supplied by other editors. It may also help to look at the article's edit history. However, please read the earlier comments and recommendations, as well as prior move requests. They may contain relevant arguments and useful information.
- Vested interests in the article should be disclosed per Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI.
When participating, please consider the following:
- Editors should make themselves familiar with the article titling policy at Wikipedia:Article titles.
- Other important guidelines that set forth community norms for article titles include Wikipedia:Disambiguation, specific naming conventions, and the manual of style.
- The debate is not a vote; please do not make recommendations that are not sustained by arguments.
- Explain how the proposed article title meets or contravenes policy and guidelines rather than merely stating that it does so.
- Nomination already implies that the nominator supports the name change, and nominators should refrain from repeating this recommendation on a separate bulleted line.[a]
- Do not make conflicting recommendations. If you change your mind, use strike-through to retract your previous statement by enclosing it between <s> and </s> after the bullets, and de-bold the struck words, as in "•
SupportOppose".
Please remember that reasonable editors will sometimes disagree, but that arguments based in policy, guidelines, and evidence have more weight than unsupported statements. When an editor offers an argument that does not explain how the move request is consistent with policies and guidelines, a reminder to engage in constructive, on-topic discussion may be useful. On the other hand, a pattern of responding to requests with groundless opinion, proof by assertion, and ignoring content guidelines may become disruptive. If a pattern of disruptive behavior persists after efforts are made to correct the situation through dialogue, please consider using a dispute resolution process.
Closing a requested move
Any uninvolved editor in good standing may close a move request. Please read the closing instructions for information on how to close a move request. The Simple guide to closing RM discussions details how to actually close a requested move discussion.
Relisting a requested move
Relisting a discussion moves the request out of the backlog up to the current day in order to encourage further input. The decision to relist a discussion is best left to uninvolved experienced editors upon considering, but declining, to close the discussion. In general, discussions should not be relisted more than once before properly closing.[b] Users relisting a debate which has already been relisted, or relisting a debate with a substantial discussion, should write a short explanation on why they did not consider the debate sufficient to close. While there is no consensus forbidding participation in a requested move discussion after relisting it, many editors consider it an inadvisable form of supervote. If you want to relist a discussion and then participate in it, be prepared to explain why you think it was appropriate.
Relisting should be done using {{subst:RM relist}}
, which automatically includes the relister's signature, and which must be placed at the very end of the initial request after the move requester's signature (and subsequent relisters' signatures).
When a relisted discussion reaches a resolution, it may be closed at any time according to the closing instructions; there is no required length of time to wait before closing a relisted discussion.
If discussion has become stale, or it seems that discussion would benefit from more input of editors versed in the subject area, consider more widely publicizing the discussion, such as by notifying WikiProjects of the discussion using the template {{RM notification}}. Banners placed at the top of the talk page hosting the move request can often be used to identify WikiProjects suitable for notification.
Notes
- ^ A nominator making a procedural nomination with which they may not agree is free to add a bulleted line explaining their actual position. Additional detail, such as sources, may also be provided in an additional bullet point if its inclusion in the nomination statement would make the statement unwieldy. Please remember that the entire nomination statement appears on the list on this page.
- ^ Despite this, discussions are occasionally relisted more than once.
- This section lists all requests filed or identified as potentially controversial which are currently under discussion.
Do not attempt to edit this list manually; a bot will automatically update the page soon after the {{subst:Requested move}} template is added to the discussion on the relevant talk page. The entry is removed automatically soon after the discussion is closed. To make a change to an entry, make the change on the linked talk page. |
This list is also available in a page-link-first format and in table format. 76 discussions have been relisted.

- (Discuss) – H2X → AN/APS-15 – The article's lede immediately identifies that the only system discussed is the AN/APS-15. It is common practice when naming articles for devices which use the American military JETDS naming convention for the article to be like either "AN/APS-15" or including the system name and type like "AN/APS-15 H2X radar". For many examples, see Category:Military electronics of the United States. This move would make the page far easier to locate since most users will search for either AN/APS-15 or AN/APS-15 H2X radar. But I am open to ideas. Please share your thoughts — TadgStirkland401 (TadgTalk) 21:20, 16 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Waqar💬 18:33, 25 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

- (Discuss) – Twitter → X (social network) – Before reading this move request, the comments written on the move requests I opened on this article and Twitter under Elon Musk should be read. I am opening this move request for a second and final time given wbm1058's closure of the latter move request two days ago, which is well-articulated and notes that the AP Stylebook no longer requires "X, formerly known as Twitter", as mentioned by an editor here. The New York Times does not mention Twitter unless in reference to an action or statement made prior to July 2023. The strongest argument that opponents of a move have—that Twitter is the common name—is a difficult claim to substantiate, even with fallible Google Trends data. The page notice and WP:COMMONNAME defer to reliable sources. Efforts to move this article in the past were premature. In terms of the claim that the history and cultural impact of Twitter should bear weight, I note that Guaranteed Rate Field is named such, though many continue to refer to the South Side baseball field as Comiskey Park. The use of parentheses in the proposed move target is unfortunate, but Wikipedia does not always decide what products are named. If X was the original name of Twitter, this article would be named appropriately. Threads (social network) is not named P92 or Project 92 because of an aversion of parentheses. This move request should not cover the status of Twitter under Elon Musk, though discussing a page move if this article is moved would not be improper. As wbm1058 stated, "scope-changing issues are problematic with project guidelines." Consensus would have been solidified if moving Twitter under Elon Musk to X (social network) had not been proposed. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 22:13, 25 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

- (Discuss) – 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel → 7 October Hamas-led attack on Israel – I believe that enough time has passed since the last RM (which proposed the simpler "7 October attacks" name and closed with consensus to retain the current title) to re-propose a title change for this article. I believe that "7 October Hamas-led attack on Israel" is the WP:COMMONNAME for this event, as seen in sources such as: * Al Jazeera: "... counter the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel, which saw ..." * Bloomberg: "... trapped in Gaza since the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel, which prompted ..." * CBC: "... around the world since the Hamas-led attacks on Israel of Oct. 7 but are now ..." * CNN: "... from the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel being held ..." * Euracitiv: "... triggered by the 7 October Hamas-led attack on Israel in which ..." * France24: "Before the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel that triggered ..." * ISW: "... spokesperson claimed that the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel was retaliation ..." * Middle East Eye: "Following the 7 October Hamas-led attack on Israel and subsequent ..." * NPR: "... Palestinian armed groups since the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel that set off the war ..." * NYTimes: "... including some who participated in the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel, and that ..." * Reuters: "... were involved in the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel that precipitated ..." * Times of Israel: "... during and after the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel." * The Conversation: "... participated in the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel, which resulted ... " * WaPo: "Since the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel, restrictions have ..." Many sources simply say "7 October" or "October 7 attacks" instead of spelling out the full name, but I believe that while "7 October attacks" could be a more COMMON name, I think that it fails WP:AT#Precision in favor of "7 October Hamas-led attack on Israel."

- (Discuss) – Touch Football World Cup → Touch World Cup – The Federation of International Touch which organises the event refers to it as the Touch World Cup and not the Touch Football World Cup. Additionally, the England Touch Association the most recent hosts of the TWC refer to it as the Touch World Cup. See: https://www.internationaltouch.org/events/upcoming/2024/jul/15/world-cup/ and https://www.englandtouch.org.uk/touch-world-cup-2024/ . Even nations that refer to it as Touch Football rather than Touch or Touch Rugby such as Australia refer to the event as the Touch World Cup or the FIT World Cup, rarely the Touch Football World Cup e.g. https://touchfootball.com.au/news/2024/07/22/world-champions-emus-retain-world-cup-in-dominant-performance/. Even when they do refer to it as the Touch Football World Cup, it's clear the official name is the Touch World Cup see for example https://touchfootball.com.au/news/2024/04/30/recapped-touch-football-world-cup-2019/ where although they call it the Touch Football World Cup in the title, they refer to it numerous times as the Touch World Cup throughout the article including as "The 2024 FIT Touch World Cup" at the end.

- (Discuss) – Karen Chapman → Karen Chapman (badminton) – With Canadian film director Karen Chapman now having an article, it is no longer clear that the badminton player would be highly meganotable enough to retain WP:PRIMARYTOPIC status. Note that I am proposing a disambiguation page at the base title rather than the film director getting primary status at this time, as she's notable primarily in Canada rather than worldwide, but this may need to be reevaluated in the future as she is likely to accrue more notability going forward. (I did also catch two wikilinks that were leading here while intending the Canadian film director, which I've already corrected.) Note as well Karena Chapman, an Australian academic whose name is similar enough that she should perhaps also be listed on the dab page to minimize any potential confusion.

- (Discuss) – Maclura pomifera → Osage orange – This follows other orange article titles such as Mandarin orange, bitter orange, blood orange, bergamot orange, and ensures consistency with the infobox title of this very page. Sir Kenneth Kho (talk) 20:12, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

By comparison, the Luke Bryan song has several reasonably well-sourced paragraphs for a song that went to #1 on three major charts and is certified seven times platinum by the RIAA. With those stats in mind, I think it's clear that the song is by a long shot the most famous entity on Wikipedia with the name "Play It Again".

- (Discuss) – Ottoman–Habsburg War (1529–1533) → Ottoman–Habsburg War of 1529–1533 – WP:NATURALDIS. Disambiguation is fundamentally necessary to the identification of these wars. They are described as distinct Ottoman–Habsburg wars within a series of wars, not periods of time within a single war (e.g., contrast with History of Canada (1960–1981) as mentioned at WP:NCDURATION). I suspect there are many other generically-named wars (and other subjects) that might benefit from similar treatment. I am also tempted to suggest lowercasing of "War", but that might be a distraction. — BarrelProof (talk) 19:04, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Islamic terrorism in Europe → Jihadist terrorism in Europe – The current page title is at odds and inconsistent with the page contents. The first paragraph begins by outlining the topic as terrorism perpetrated by jihadist groups and individuals, which Europol has defined since 2015 as "jihadist terrorism". The definition section then explains the meaning of "jihadism" and the page features the "Jihadism" series template. If the topic is defined in this way by the principal body monitoring this activity, as well as in the definition section and other parts of the page, "jihadist terrorism" would seem to be the correct terminology for the topic. It is also more specific and precise than "Islamist terrorism", of which "jihadist terrorism" is a subset. "Islamic terrorism" is a generally poor term that is essentially shorthand for "Islamic extremist terrorism", but here the far better and more specific term to use is "jihadist terrorism" - hence the usage by Europol and here for practically every entry throughout this list.

- (Discuss) – Frozen II → Frozen 2 – Let me begin by establishing the fact that Frozen 2 is unequivocally the actual and official title of the film, per the official website, official trailer, social media, press releases, and press materials (do a Ctrl+F search for "Frozen 2", then do the same for "Frozen II"). Of course, the official name is not necessarily the COMMONNAME, so let's examine usage in reliable sources. Although "Frozen II" has gained some ground in recent years, ngrams show that "Frozen 2" still maintains a lead over "Frozen II". On Google Trends, the picture is even clearer: "Frozen 2" has an obvious and insurmountable lead. There are 7,270 scholarly results for "Frozen 2" on Google Scholar, and only 1,220 for "Frozen II". Likewise, Google News yields 48,100 results for "Frozen 2" and only 6,730 for "Frozen II" — that's an almost 90% drop! A survey of specific sources shows the same result. From the past two years: [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19]. A sampling of reviews published when the film was released in 2019: [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42].Now that the COMMONNAME argument has been addressed, there are several other reasons "Frozen 2" is a more appropriate title than "Frozen II" even if "Frozen II" is the COMMONNAME, and especially if both are deemed equally common (in which case, the official name should naturally serve as tiebreaker). Firstly, "Frozen 2" is more recognizable to the general reader than "Frozen II". As seen with the Google Trends analysis, the natural instinct of readers is clearly to type "Frozen 2" into the search bar rather than "Frozen II", which is logical, considering Arabic numerals are more common in titles of works and beyond. The Frozen 2 redirect has received half as many lifetime views as the target page! When readers watch the film on Disney+, it's "Frozen 2". When they listen to the soundtrack on YouTube, Spotify, or Apple Music, it's "Frozen 2". The documentary is called Into the Unknown: Making Frozen 2; the podcast is called Inside Frozen 2. Now, let me play devil's advocate: perhaps the distinction between "2" and "II" is so minor that the impact on recognizability is negligible; if so, wouldn't it make sense to go with the actual title since there is no harm in doing so?Secondly, as established earlier, Frozen II is not the actual title and is merely a stylistic device used in marketing materials. Per MOS:TITLE#Typographic effects and MOS:TMRULES, article titles should not normally emulate logo or marketing stylizations. For example, we use Fantastic Four (2015 film) and not Fant4stic; Mission: Impossible 2 and not M:I-2; and WALL-E and not WALL·E. This extends beyond film titles: see Lego (not LEGO), Eminem (not EMINƎM), Toys "R" Us (not Toys Я Us), Pink (singer) (not P!nk), AOL (not Aol.), etc. I acknowledge that the film's title card also uses "Frozen II", but there are many films whose onscreen title differs from its actual title: Dune (2021 film), Fast & Furious 6, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, Iron Man 3, etc. Thirdly, with a third and fourth film recently being announced, sources are already widely using "Frozen 3" and "Frozen 4": [43] [44] [45] [46] [47] [48] [49] [50] [51]. (There are dozens more, but I don't want to spam this page any further.) Our draft pages are currently (and correctly) located at Draft:Frozen 3 and Draft:Frozen 4; we should be WP:CONSISTENT in our approach to dealing with these logo stylizations.I recognize that this is a long read, but I am anticipating an uphill battle and felt it was important to demonstrate a strong rationale.

The references in this article mostly refer to him as John B.

I came across this as both the book I am currently reading (Welcher's The Union Army: Organization and Operations) and the book before that (Cozzens' The Shipwreck of Their Hopes) use the form John B. Turchin. I do not have strong feelings between John Basil Turchin or John B. Turchin, but I believe the current title is inferior to either of these two options.

- (Discuss) – One-wall handball → Wallball – Wallball is the name now used by most of the major organisations involved in governing the sport in countries across the globe, such as GAA Handball, UK Wallball, the United States Handball Association etc - they have moved away from referring to the game as 'one-wall handball', instead using the name 'Wallball' for the sport. N.B. the United States Handball Association (USHA) uses both names albeit they are used for two different codes of American handball - they use the name 'One-wall handball' to describe the code played with the smaller, harder rubber ball normally used in the four-wall code of American handball and the name 'Wallball' to refer to the game played with the bigger, softer rubber ball, very similar to a racquetball, that this article talks about. The name 'Wallball' was also introduced by the organisations above, to differentiate itself from the game of handball currently played in the Olympics, that is similar to the sport of soccer, but played with one's hands. Indeed a few weeks ago, the World Wallball Championships took place in Limerick, Ireland, with 13 countries taking part, as can be seen in the name of the event itself, being 'World Wallball Championships' rather than 'World One-wall Handball Championships', as it used to be called.

- (Discuss) – Beatrice of Bavaria → Beatrix, Queen of Sweden – The given name is per WP:COMMONNAME: * The spelling "Beatrice" is very seldom used for her in the literature. I can find a pair of 19th century books which call her Beatrice,[52][53] a short entry in Women in World History (1999) and a genealogy chart in some Strindberg's work[54]. The rest of the literature calls her "Beatrix".(e.g. search for Beatrix+Erik+1359+Magnus and its variations) * The most common territorial designation is "of Brandenburg", by an overwhelming margin compared to other options. It is used for example in various Scandinavian encyclopedias[55][56][57]. However, the name Beatrix of Brandenburg is already taken. (There's no primary topic here, and that title should actually be replaced with a dab page.) * Few sources disambiguate her with the house name Wittelsbach,[58], and a couple of German sources disambiguate her as Beatrix von Bayern. In other sources I have not seen Bavaria/Bayern being used for her. Some encyclopedias call her Beatrix without any such designation, and indicate that she is a queen in the subtitle.[59].[60] Since both "Beatrix of Wittelsbach" and "Beatrix of Bavaria" are rare in the literature (and likely to only hinder recognizability), I suggest that we just use a descriptive phrase "Queen of Sweden". — Jähmefyysikko (talk) 14:43, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

Rather then adding horror to the name (as well as other genras, such as steampunk or superhero fiction) renaming this to Russian speculative fiction and making it the main article for Category:Russian speculative fiction would be advisable. Note that separate articles on Russian science fiction and Russian fantasy could be created, but arbitrary merging sf+fantasy and excluding horror is just weird; the interwiki for this article on ru is ru:Советская фантастика which is more than just sf+fantasy (i.e. it also includes horror, etc.).

The "1861-1914" timespan in the title of the first of these articles looks like it is a lifespan range, perhaps to identify which Charles Townshend is being discussed, but that's not what it is. These two articles are about the same Charles Townshend who is covered in the article entitled Charles Townshend (British Army officer). Townshend lived another 10 years after 1914 and had further major events in his career until retiring in 1920.

Since the Wikipedia article on X still calls it Twitter, the title for this article should do the same for consistency. Alex98 (talk) 02:29, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Daniel McClellan → Dan McClellan (biblical scholar) – https://www.tpr.org/news/2024-01-28/biblical-scholar-dan-mcclellan-fights-misinformation-about-the-bible-on-social-media, https://www.tiktok.com/@maklelan, and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPIr68f27VQ refer to the biblical scholar as "Dan McClellan."

- (Discuss) – Will Wood (musician) → Will Wood – WP:PTOPIC. Of every name listed at William Wood, a majority have amassed under one thousand pageviews this year. Below are some statistics about names on the page: * Will Wood (musician) - The most viewed page from the William Wood disambiguation with 120k this year. This is consistent to 164k from last year and 150k the year before. * Merlyn Wood - The second-most viewed page with 15k from this year. Merlyn doesn't refer to himself as Will Wood, so the name is not in common usage (1:8 with the musician). * William P. Wood - The third-most viewed page with 8k from this year. 6k of those views are from an abrupt spike in late-July, which is unnatural for a 19th century politician (1:15 with the musician). * USS William M. Wood (DD-715) - The fourth-most viewed page with 2k from this year. 1:60 with the musician. * Will Wood (footballer) - The only other name on the page that uses Will over William. 1:70 with the musician. Noting all of this, the musician is by far the most common usage of the name Will Wood. Koopastar (talk) 23:56, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Universal Studios, Inc. → Universal Studios – Universal Studios currently redirects here, the article about the parent company. "Universal Studios" can also be used as a shorthand/nickname for Universal Pictures, the film studio, or the various theme parks named "Universal Studios", which we cover under Universal Destinations & Experiences. Given none of the Universal Studios theme parks are simply called "Universal Studios" (unlike Disneyland, the original park is called Universal Studios Hollywood), and neither the theme park company nor the film studio is called "Universal Studios", the parent company is the only subject that is not a partial title match and can be regarded as the primary topic, distinguished by WP:SMALLDETAILS (a hatnote can address any confusion). If editors disagree and believe this article is not the primary topic, then this redirect should point to Universal Pictures, Universal Destinations & Experiences, or Universal Studios Hollywood, or be converted into a disambiguation page (I would support this as my second choice). It should not remain as it is because this is currently an unnecessary disambiguation. https://www.universalstudios.com/ currently points to the parent company as well.

- (Discuss) – Elizabeth Charlotte, Madame Palatine → Elizabeth Charlotte, Duchess of Orleans – There is no historical or modern basis for this figure to bear the title of "Madame Palatine". As the wife of the King's eldest brother, yes, she indeed was known as "Madame"; but (1) this was not an actual title, merely a form of address, and (2) it was never combined with the word "Palatine". Her official title was Duchess of Orleans. As such, I request that this article be renamed to Elizabeth Charlotte, Duchess of Orelans. Her birth title is also possible - but there another Elizabeth Charlotte of the Palatinate, so Duchess of Orleans would be more descriptive. Regardless, either style would be a huge improvement over the ahistorical and crudely made-up "Madame Palatine". FiveBy21 (talk) 23:09, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

For better alignment with WP:NCPDAB. Wikipedia does not ordinarily use lifespan ranges (especially with hyphens in them) for disambiguation of people. See Joanna of Austria for a list of the three people known by this name. It appears there is an error in the opening paragraph, since the list of viceroys of Naples links to John Joseph of Austria, not to John of Austria. It seems that this woman was the daughter of John of Austria, who was not a viceroy of Naples. — BarrelProof (talk) 17:42, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Eric XI of Sweden → Erik Eriksson (king) – The WP:COMMONNAME for this king is "Erik Eriksson". * Ngram shows that Erik Eriksson has been more common in the literature since 1910 or so. However, "Erik Eriksson" is also a common name for other people, so the full curve for "Erik Eriksson" cannot be attributed to the king. The decline in the use of "Eric XI" is more clear. * Reliable sources usually use the name Erik Eriksson. See e.g. GBooks search for Erik+1222+1250. Typical example is the Cambridge History of Scandinavia. Britannica does not have a dedicated page for him, but the "Learn more page" is titled Erik Eriksson. *There are a lot of other Erik Erikssons (dab page), and the king is not the primary topic. For disambiguation, I suggest the parenthetical disambiguation, which would be a concise choice. I don't believe our hands are tied very strongly by WP:NCROY here since its applicability to medieval Sweden is somewhat dubious. These patronymic names are not of the "common stock", and Sweden was not a hereditary monarchy at the time. — Jähmefyysikko (talk) 04:50, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

I couldn't find any documentation of that fact in the Wikipedia Article Titles guidance, and plus -- the name of the school is THE Overlake School. I went to this school and everybody - students, faculty, administrators, Seattle Times articles, the school's website itself - refers to it as such. The Beatles? The Walker School?

- (Discuss) – Sōma Yoshitane (1558-1635) → Sōma Yoshitane (daimyo, born 1548) – For closer alignment with WP:NCPDAB, particularly avoiding hyphenated lifespan ranges. I believe the birth year of this Sōma Yoshitane is incorrect in the current title, as it does not match the article content and does not match what I find in (hopefully non-Wikipedia-derived) search results. Another Honda Yasushige is at Honda Yasushige (Zeze) and is thus disambiguated differently, but this Honda Yasushige overlapped between both the Sengoku and Edo periods and also overlapped between Okazaki han and Shiroi han and also overlapped between the Mikawa province and Kantō region, so I am just resorting to the birth year. The article about him refers to him as a samurai, but not as a daimyo, but the disambiguation page at Honda Yasushige refers to him as a daimyo, so I don't know which term is best to use.

His examples: * his teammates: Invisible Woman, not "Susan Storm"; Human Torch, not "Johnny Storm"; Thing is currently at "Ben Grimm", but that was only moved there together with that aforementioned 2021 move which again, should have been closed as no consensus * with his enemies: Doctor Doom, not "Victor von Doom"; Mole Man, not "Harvey Rupert Elder"; Puppet Master (Marvel Comics), not "Phillip Masters"; Galactus, not "Galan" * with the majority of Marvel superhero articles: Iron Man, not "Tony Stark"; Captain America, not "Steve Rogers"; Spider-Man, not "Peter Parker" * with the majority of superhero articles, even those outside Marvel: Superman, not "Clark Kent"; Batman, not "Bruce Wayne"; Wonder Woman, not "Diana Prince"; Spawn (character), not "Al Simmons" Ziggy Coltrane (talk) 19:06, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Illinois River (Oklahoma) → Illinois River (Arkansas–Oklahoma) – Per WP:PRECISE, WP:PLACEDAB and WP:NCRIVER. About half of this river is in one state and half in the other (per this not so great map) so I think it makes sense to inclue both states in the parentheses. (Note that the 2015 RM above was to trade one state name for the other, where this is meant to be more holistic.) Looking at other examples like Sabine River (Texas–Louisiana), White River (Arkansas–Missouri), and Iroquois River (Indiana-Illinois) the practice seems to be to order the states by the order of the river goes through them which I followed. Being precise seems especially important here to avoid confusion with the state of Illinois. RevelationDirect (talk) 18:40, 30 August 2024 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Stanisław Potocki (1659-1683) → Stanisław Potocki (Polish noble, died 1683) – For alignment with WP:NCPDAB, especially to remove the lifespan ranges (especially the one using a hyphen). These people have more specific titles (szlachcic, voivode, etc.), but I think they are not used in English, so I am just suggesting "Polish noble" for all of them. For one of these, we have the birth year, but for the others we do not, so it may be best to consistently use the death year for all of them. Note that Stanisław Potocki (1734–1802) redirects to Józef Potocki (1734/35–1802). This seems to be an artefact of a previous error; see Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 January 13#Stanisław Potocki (1734–1802).

Despite this, Okinawa is currently just a redirect to the prefecture, with the dab hatnoted. Dictionary definitions are unhelpful, variously describing it as "an island" or "islands", which itself is ambiguous between the island chain and the prefecture. "Okinawa Island" and "Okinawa Prefecture" return similar amounts (18,000 and 19,000) of results on Google Scholar, but "on Okinawa" is much less used than "in Okinawa". Page view analysis shows that Okinawa Prefecture is less viewed than Okinawa Island, but not enough that the island would be a primary topic. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 14:45, 30 August 2024 (UTC)

Besides the current name doesn't even show up in ngrams because of its extremely low usage in published sources. "Mumbai International Airport" is much more natural and recognisable to an average reader, and more readers are likely to search for it. Mumbai Airport is good enough too.

- (Discuss) – Sophia Howe → Sophia Waller, 2nd Baroness Howe –
DrKay and I have found ourselves in disagreement over the title of this article. At creation, this article was named like it currently is: Sophia Howe. Since she was a peeress suo jure (having inherited the barony from her father), I moved the article to Sophia Howe, 2nd Baroness Howe, which is generally the format for articles on peers – unless they disclaim the title, or don't use it (like for instance author Nicholas Mosley). DrKay moved it back to Sophia Howe with the comment Remove unnecessary parentheses/disambiguator: mismatch of her maiden name and a title she inherited after her marriage. I can buy that her surname wasn't Howe when she inherited the barony, but I find it peculiar that DrKay nevertheless kept it, while removing the title, which was correct. It seems to me that it flies in the face of his own edit summary. As I said, I totally buy that her surname wasn't Howe when she inherited the barony, so I then moved the article to Sophia Waller, 2nd Baroness Howe; Waller being her surname when she inherited the title. DrKay has now moved the article back to Sophia Howe again, with the edit summary bizarre use of unknown surname! What's bizarre?, I ask. DrKay complains the Howe wasn't her surname when she inherited the title, I move it to the surname that she had when she inherited the title, and DrKay moves it back again (never mind referring to WP:RMUM after they have done it themselves ... ). I don't know if anyone is move-warring here, but if so, it certainly isn't me. I have acted in good faith. So, what should the article title be? # Sophia Howe (with or without "2nd Baroness Howe"), this lastname is her maiden name. # Sophia Curzon (with or without "2nd Baroness Howe"), this is the lastname from her 1st husband. # Sophia Curzon-Howe (with or without "2nd Baroness Howe"), #1 and #2 combined, which is what her son, who inherited the barony from her, chose. # Sophia Waller (with or without "2nd Baroness Howe"), this is the lastname from her 2nd husband. Vote 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, etc, with a=with "2nd Baroness Howe", and b=without the title. My vote is 4a.

The sources in the article clearly indicated that Pakistan National Congress became Bangladesh National Congress in 1971. It also participated in the 1973 Bangladeshi general election. On the other hand, Pakistan National Congress didn’t join 1977 Pakistani general election. In that sense, Bangladesh National Congress is the only successor of the Pakistan National Congress. Also, there is no proof we find that will lead us to believe that many politicians from West Pakistan were in this party, the names of the PNC politicians from the sources we find are mostly from East Pakistan which is now Bangladesh. It should be renamed to Bangladesh National Congress. However, if anyone can show us proofs stating many West Pakistani politicians were in that party then I would propose to rename it as "National Congress (1947–1975)".

- (Discuss) – Ryan Whitney → Ryan Whitney (ice hockey) – Firstly, there is no clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC between Ryan Whitney and Ryan Whitney (actress) (see similar page view numbers, suggesting equal readership). Ryan Whitney used to be called Ryan Newman, which is where all the problems start. However, after three years, two failed RMs, and a unilateral move by a user, we're passed the WP:TOOSOON stage. Let's say Ryan Whitney (actress)'s WP:COMMONNAME is actually Ryan Whitney (more on that later), and we manage to agree that there is no PRIMARYTOPIC, then, we need to move the pages accordingly and create a proper disambiguation page, instead of what is now at Ryan Whitney (disambiguation).
Next, for the case of Ryan Newman (racing driver), the page needs to be moved to Ryan Newman, since he would be the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for the name "Ryan Newman". We could leave a hatnote at the top so that readers looking for the former Ryan Newman, now Ryan Whitney, could find her. I don't think a Ryan Newman (disambiguation) page is necessary, but let me know. Ryan Dean Newman can stay as is, and we can leave a hatnote if need be.Alternate proposal
: if you disagree with Ryan Whitney's WP:COMMONNAME being Ryan Whitney, I suggest moving Ryan Whitney (actress) to Ryan Whitney Newman, which is used in a fair chunk of sources and on places like her Instagram page. Ryan Newman (racing driver) is still moved to Ryan Newman, hatnotes are still left at the top, but that way we can leave Ryan Whitney (the ice hockey player) where he is, and just leave a hatnote at the top.

However, all the other Wi-Fi articles (Wi-Fi 7, Wi-Fi 8, Wi-Fi 5) use the IEEE technical name, rather than the "Wi-Fi x" marketing name. Thus I suggest moving this article to IEEE 802.11ax (without the "-2021" at the end, as it's not needed - WP:CONCISE; also the later articles don't have "-year" in the title either) to be WP:CONSISTENT with all these other Wi-Fi articles that are titled under the IEEE name. I'd say
No one but advanced experts in this field would be searching for this article by its IEEE number, nor know what this article is about from its IEEE number.
(from the previous RM) is not much of an issue anymore, as these Wi-Fi articles all now have a neat navigational template at the top clearly showing the "Wi-Fi x" marketing designations of each IEEE WLAN standard. Also, that's what redirects are for. — AP 499D25 (talk) 10:06, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Use of human shields by Hamas → Allegations that Hamas use human shields – The current title puts increasingly controversial claims in wiki voice. After 4 months more evidence, it is worth discussing this title again. Since the first two discussions there has been strong expert criticism of the IDF claim that civilian casualties are human shields, particularly by Francesca Albanese, but also by others. Even if some of the past allegations are credible or proven, the current title somewhat implies that human shield use can explain a substantial proportion of recent casualties. Adding "allegations" is the simplest and mildest thing we can do to fix the bias in the current title. "Allegation" might be a more acceptable compromise for some people who rejected "accusation", and this proposal is hopefully less confusingly phrased than previous suggestions.

There is no hatnote to indicate that a reader might have found the wrong article. There is also a New Brunswick Junior C Hockey League article. Also, is it necessary to use "ice hockey" for the Northern League rather than just "hockey"? — BarrelProof (talk) 21:58, 30 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Waqar💬 08:02, 8 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

- (Discuss) – Georg Albrecht, Mayor of Rothenburg ob der Tauber (1603-1666) → Georg Albrecht (mayor) – or Georg Albrecht (politician). The appended (hyphenated) date range is not how articles on Wikipedia are ordinarily titled. Georg Albrecht, Mayor of Rothenburg ob der Tauber is a red link, so the date range could just be omitted, but "Mayor of Rothenburg ob der Tauber" is an elected position, not a title of nobility.

Other attacks like the 2018 attempted murder of 2 Jews outside a Los Angeles synagogue, targeted Jews but perpetrated by someone with mental illness.

- (Discuss) – Magpul Industries → Magpul – The common name for this company is "Magpul" by far. There is no other similarly-named entity, and hence natural disamguation is not needed. In any case, the full name is Magpul Industries *Corporation*, and in places where the full name is used, it appears roughly as frequently as "Magpul Industries" as it does "Magpul Industries Corporation", hence there is no reason why the half-full name should be used. There could be an arguement that "Magpul" could also refer to the original product made by this company, but the company now retrospectively brands this the Original Magpul to avoid confusion, and in most cases when people refer to Magpul they are referring to the company not the product, which is only a very minor product in their current line.

- (Discuss) – LGBT culture → LGBTQ culture – The article LGBTQ, which is about the initialism, was moved recently from LGBT after a recent requested move. LGBTQ has become the clear common name among reliable sources for the initialism, and this is also the case for the terms LGBTQ culture (See the ngram for LGBT vs LGBTQ culture) and LGBTQ community (Ngram for LGBT vs LGBTQ community). While I could have made this RM much broader in scope, I wanted to see if there was consensus to move LGBT community & LGBT culture and its subtopics (subtopics of LGBT culture) first (other articles like LGBT rights or LGBT history would have been more contentious because LGBTQ is not the more commonly used name in those instances [82] [83]).

- (Discuss) – Digital enhanced cordless telecommunications → DECT – DECT is overwhelmingly the WP:COMMONNAME for the subject. Per MOS:ACROTITLE, if the subject is primarily known through its abbreviation and the abbreviation is not primarily used for something else, it should be used as the page title. Webshops use the abbreviation, such as Best Buy: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?st=cordless+phone and Gigaset, the largest manufacturer of DECTs: https://www.gigaset.com/de_de/telefone/dect-telefone/ If you look at Google News, it is the same: https://news.google.com/search?q=intitle%3ADECT&hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US%3Aen The full name even gives zero hits in headlines: https://news.google.com/search?q=%22Digital%20Enhanced%20Cordless%20Telecommunications%22&hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US%3Aen The full name gives way less hits too.

- (Discuss) – Bay Bridge Series → Athletics–Giants rivalry – The rivalry between the two teams will still exist in the short term (at least through 2027), though the scope of the rivalry will be zoomed out from the Bay Area (San Francisco/Oakland) to that of Northern California (San Francisco/Sacramento), being that the A's will play in West Sacramento for at least the next 3 seasons. By changing the name of the page to only include the team names, the scope of the article can better accommodate the new SF/Sacramento reality beginning next year. The Bay Bridge Series is now firmly in the past, but maybe the page move should be delayed until the two teams meet again (whether that be moving the page on the day of the next game of May 16, 2025 or before Spring Training 2025). Alternatively, maybe it's better for it to be effective immediately since the "Bay Bridge Series" is now in the past. Spesh531(talk, contrib., ext.) 21:30, 19 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

- (Discuss) – Bento → Bento box – We discussed this in Talk:Bento (disambiguation)#Requested move 9 August 2024 recently - it appears that in English-language usage, the phrase "bento box" is actually very popular in sources, and unambiguously identifies what seems to be more commonly known as just "bento" in Japanese usage. The term bento box already redirects here since forever, so this change would be more of a technicality, but I'm bringing it up for discussion because that would follow the previous process more properly. So, per WP:AT, this change would appear to improve recognizability, naturalness, precision. It would obviously reduce concision a bit, but it seems bearable. I'm not sure about consistency, what would be a comparable example - perhaps how we use take-out instead of to go? This move would facilitate a measurement related to the previous discussion - it appears that the term "Bento" (uppercase) is a fair bit historically and presently ambiguous, while "bento" (lowercase) is less so, but it's not clear to what extent this is so - if we complete this move, that would become easier to measure.

- (Discuss) – Anarchism and naturism → Anarcho-naturism – A few days ago, @Czar performed a unilateral move of this page from "anarcho-naturism" to "anarchism and naturism", giving the edit summary
"no source visibly uses this hyphenation; is not the common name"
. (diff) This is not correct. It doesn't take long to find the use of the term "anarcho-naturism" in the sources cited in this article; within a minute I found its use in Kirwin Shaffer's book Anarchist Cuba, which is cited throughout this article. Furthermore, it does indeed appear that "anarcho-naturism" is the common name: Google Scholar results find 53 results for "anarcho-naturism";[84] compared with 11 for "anarchist naturism";[85] 6 for "libertarian naturism";[86] 2 for "naturist anarchism";[87] and only 4 for the new page name "anarchism and naturism".[88] This article certainly needs work to trim the less reliable sources and remove unverified information from it, but I don't think moving it to a different title and then leaving it as before is a good place to start. As I can't undo the request and I'm not sure this counts as an uncontroversial technical request, I'm requesting this article be moved back to "anarcho-naturism".

- (Discuss) – Richeza of Denmark → Rikissa of Denmark – Per WP:COMMONNAME and WP:UE. She is not a widely discussed person in English literature, but the literature that does exist either uses the Swedish Rikissa or the Danish Richizza. The current title Richeza is a Polish variant of the name, originating from her grandmother Richeza of Poland. However, I don't see any evidence that this person would be called "Richeza of Denmark" in any reliable sources. According to WP:UE:
If there are too few reliable English-language sources to constitute an established usage, follow the conventions of the language appropriate to the subject.
Here the appropriate language seems to be Swedish, since she is a Swedish Queen and more often discussed in the Swedish literature. See Google Books searches for Rikissa+Knutsson vs Richizza+Knutsson vs Richeza+Knutsson. Jähmefyysikko (talk) 08:02, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Other pages and media refer to him as Nic Bishop. Wikipedia seems to be the outlier here. Second, there is another actor named Nicholas Bishop (who stars in Industry) and while he does not yet have a Wikipedia page, I see this has caused confusion regardless. For example, The Madness of George III mistakenly linked to this actor's page (which I have corrected). Starklinson (talk) 07:06, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

For example here are some sources from the previous cycle, [89][90][91][92][93][94][95][96][97][98]. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 16:41, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – De La Salle Green Spikers volleyball → De La Salle Green Archers volleyball – The above existing pages have titles that do emulate the placement of a disambiguating sports descriptor after the team name, per WP:QUALIFIER. This style of adding descriptors has been prescribed by example by, among other similar college-sports WikiProjects, this page under WP:CBBALL and this page under WP:CFB for titles of pages about United States college teams. Clearly, these descriptors were prescribed in order to naturally disambiguate (by WP:NATURAL) a page about a team playing a certain sport from pages about namesake teams that are playing in other sports. In each of the team pages above being requested for moving, however, 1) the team name used is not that of its institution's team's uniform or collective name but the special nickname or unique moniker given to that specific team playing in its sport, so much so that the need for disambiguation disappears. 2) what is produced by the addition of a disambiguating sport descriptor after the team's special nickname is a redundancy. For example, there are no other De La Salle Green Spikers other than the De La Salle Green Archers team playing men's volleyball. For having a redundant title, the page's title then creates WP:OVERPRECISION and breaches the WP:CONCISE rule. That, however, can be salvaged by replacing the special moniker with the institution's team's uniform or collective name, a replacement which is what would have the need for disambiguation and erase the redundancy.

- (Discuss) – Power Five conferences → Power Four conferences – The Pac-12 has lost all but two members following recent college football realignment, and the vast majority of reliable sources now refer to a group of "Power Four conferences" instead of "Power Five conferences". Although media usage of the term (and its reflection on the media's underlying opinion of the strength of the conferences) should be the decisive factor, it is also relevant that the Pac-12 lost its status in 2024 as an "autonomy conference", which the other four power conferences have. See the second paragraph of this old edit for a slew of sources about how the Power Four has supplanted the Power Five. Orser67 (talk) 17:50, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Southeastern (train operating company, 2006–2021) → Southeastern (2006–2021 train operating company) – I think its more natural way of disambiguating TOCs by years. It matches Banana (1986 video game), but since it contains two years, I am not sure if its acceptable. [updated 22:27 16 August 2024] just also note that the original title was Southeastern (train operating company 2006–2021) (without the comma) which is option C if it needs to be move back to that.

- (Discuss) – Israel–Hamas war → Israel–Gaza war – Despite the move request to Israel-Gaza war being closed as no consensus in February 2024, a lot has changed since then and RS have converged to use this name. This move is long overdue and aligns with the relevant Wikipedia guidelines of WP:COMMONNAME and WP:NAMECHANGE. RS per WP that uses the Israel-Gaza war name as the title of their coverage category: * The Guardian:
Israel-Gaza war
* The Washington Post:Israel-Gaza war
* BBC:Israel-Gaza war
* NPR:Israel-Gaza war
* The Conservation:Israel-Gaza war
* Al Jazeera:Israel's war on Gaza
Other RS that uses the Israel-Gaza war name as the title of their coverage category: * Doctors Without Borders:Israel-Gaza war
* Committee to Protect Journalists:Israel-Gaza conflict
* The National:Israel-Gaza war
* Middle East Eye:Israel's war on Gaza
RS per WP that uses the Israel-Gaza war in their coverage: * Reuters: [99], [100], [101]:Israel-Gaza war
* CBS news: [102]Israel-Gaza war
* Vox: [103], [104]:Israel's war in Gaza
This name change would also align with a third Wikipedia guideline, all five of the WP:CRITERIA one, namely #5 on Consistency, as this would align with Gaza War (2008–2009) and 2014 Gaza war. Makeandtoss (talk) 10:05, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Palestinian territories → Occupied Palestinian Territory – This terminology has become standard across all official sources, the United Nations, itself and in its resolutions, and at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), in 2004 and reaffirmed in 2024, the EU and in many secondary sources. The ICJ concluded that the West Bank and Gaza are a single territorial unit: However, the Court recalls that, from a legal standpoint, the Occupied Palestinian Territory constitutes a single territorial unit, the unity, contiguity and integrity of which is to be preserved and respected. Thus, all references in this Opinion to the Occupied Palestinian Territory are references to this single territorial unit. Although still used in sources, and should remain as an aka, the existing title is currently an anachronism. Note that the OPT is also equivalent geographically to the area claimed by the State of Palestine. Selfstudier (talk) 10:17, 5 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Frost 16:15, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Al-Tabaeen school attack → Al-Tabaeen school massacre – The flowchart on WP:DEATHS makes it clear that as the people are dead -> because of homicide -> not capital punishment -> nobody is convicted, we could go with "Al-Tabaeen school killings", but given the number of people who were killed, I believe massacre is, sadly, appropriate. Foreign ministries across the Arab world have also considered it a massacre, and we refer to other such tragic events - of varying scales - as a massacre (i.e. Bucha massacre, Hoddle Street massacre, Samashki massacre, etc.), so I believe this change is appropriate considering the scale of the incident and the number of dead and wounded as reported by RS within the article.

- (Discuss) – Trois-Rivières Aigles → Trois-Rivières Aigles (1971–1977) – Thinking on it, long-term significance leans towards the current team being the primary topic as it's been around longer and has had much more coverage than the defunct affiliated minor league team that only played for seven years some decades ago. The current team has already lasted nearly twice as long as the old team, and shows no signs of going away anytime soon, so in my mind it's proven itself to be the most likely intended subject for someone looking up the team name. oknazevad (talk) 21:10, 1 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

- (Discuss) – Midland Mainline → Midland Mainline (train operating company) – The last time I requested this, I got the disambiguator tag wrong ('company' rather than 'train operating company'). Since its been a few months, and I am moving this to a different name this time, it should be acceptable (as in, not disruptive) to revisit it again. But anyway, similar to my previous rationale, the Midland Mainline TOC is long gone, and almost everyone searching for this is looking for the mainline, so I propose moving Midland Mainline to Midland Mainline (train operating company) then redirecting Midland Mainline to Midland Main Line. Even Google comes up with Midland Mainline first. I do get WP:SMALLDETAILS but I don't think it applies here since the primary topic is probably the mainline over the TOC.

- (Discuss) – Ascalon → Ashkelon (ancient city) – Recently, the name of this article was changed from Tel Ashkelon to Ascalon. The rationale was that Ashkelon and Tel Ashkelon are too similar, and that readers cannot be expected to differentiate. It was said that Ascalon is the name of the historical site. This rationale is invalid. The name Ashkelon, is the conventionally accepted name for both the modern city, and the ancient site. In many cases, the name Ashkelon is even used when referring to periods in which it was historically known as Ascalon. This place has at least 20,000 years of history, accros many periods of times. It was a prehistoric site, a Canaanite, Philistine, Hellenistic city, a Crusader city, an Islamic city... We don't always know its actual name, and it has never had a single way to pronounce its name. I am suggesting to change the name to Ashkelon (ancient city). I divided my argument into three parts: (1) Ashkelon and Ascalon are virtually the same and therefore confusing; (2) The toponym for the ancient site is known in maps and sites as "Ashkelon"; (3) the conentional scholarly name for the city in all periods is "Ashkelon", including periods in which it was called in different names. 1. Ascalon and Ashkelon are virtually the same. It is very confusing still. Differetiating them with "ancient city" in brackets makes no mistakes. Another option would've been "Tel Ashkelon", but there were times in which the ancient settlements in Ashkelon were not exactly on the Tel, and the city often controlled a much broader territory. Tel Ashkelon would strictly refer to the antiquties, but the article's scope goes beyond it. Another opition I thought about was "History of Ashkelon", simmilar to how we have "History of Athens", but I think that this might confuse the people who are looking for the history of modern Ashkelon, whose place should be in the article about the modern city. Therefore, I think that Ashkelon (ancient city) is the clearest option for the scope of the article. 2. Location identification: Today, the principal site of ancient Ashkelon is known as Tel Ashkelon. This is a declared national park in Israel, and it apears by that name. The official name of the park is "Ashkelon National Park". I think it makes a lot of sense to assume, that many people who visit Israel as tourist, will likely enter this Wikipedia article. They will not be referred to Ascalon, but to Ashkelon, either Tel Ashkelon (mentioned here, here, here and [105], which were the first results I was given by google. Therefore, the site, as a location, is better identified with Ashkelon rather than Ascalon Bolter21 (talk to me) 11:03, 20 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. ToadetteEdit (talk) 18:04, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Lille OSC → LOSC Lille – The current title is wrong in both WP:COMMONNAME and WP:OFFICIALNAME. Firstly, the club's official name is not "Lille Olympique Sporting Club"-- that's what it used to be. Today, the club's entire official name is "LOSC Lille". "Lille OSC", the current title, is used by nobody both in common and official usage. In media, the club is often referred to as "Lille", "LOSC", and often times as "LOSC Lille". We could move the title to just "LOSC", but since the English-language "short" name for usage in articles is just "Lille", this wouldn't really work smoothly. I say we should go by the club's actual name in this specific case, which is also really commonly used in sources, only third to Lille and LOSC (which I don't believe are valid titles.)

- (Discuss) – Tales of the Jedi (TV series) → Star Wars: Tales – Since this move made nearly three months ago has been objected to, here is an RM. I personally don't agree with the need as consensus was reached on the matter. Never the less, this anthology series had its first installment released as (formally) Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi (commonly Tales of the Jedi) in October 2022, with it announced in April 2023 that it would get a second season (wording used by media outlets, though the quote from Filoni was "Tales of the Jedi was so fun the first time, I decided to do some more.") Subsequently, it was announced a year later in April 2024 that this second "season" was a new "installment", Star Wars: Tales of the Empire (commonly Tales of the Empire). This press release shows the use of both formal names as well as the key quote in my view (and the determination of the previous consensus) that Tales of the Empire was
the second installment of the "Tales" series
. Thus, an appropriate name to address this anthology series considering the formal name would be Star Wars: Tales, which provides a WP:NATURAL name. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:25, 2 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.
