Wikipedia:Requested moves
This page has a backlog that requires the attention of one or more administrators. This notice is automatically updated by RMCD bot (talk) and will no longer be displayed 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: 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.
- Unregistered users and new (not yet autoconfirmed) users are unable to move pages.
Requests are generally processed after seven days. If consensus is reached at or after this time, a reviewer will enact the request. If not, the request may be re-listed to allow more time for consensus to develop, or the discussion 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.
- 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 discussion (especially no recent 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 such a move, and the new title has not been in place for a long time, you may revert the move. 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 page if you tried to move a page, and you got an error message saying something like "You do not have permission to move this page, for the following reasons: ..."
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 top of the list, filling in pages and reason:
{{subst:RMassist|current page title|new page title|reason=reason for move}}
This will automatically insert a bullet and include your signature. Please do not edit the article's talk page. 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.

Uncontroversial technical requests
- Application programming interface key → API key (currently a redirect to Application programming interface key) (move · discuss) – API key is the WP:COMMONAME for this subject, comparable to VPN service. PhotographyEdits (talk) 12:17, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
- University of Hanover → Leibniz University Hannover (currently a redirect to University of Hanover) (move · discuss) – In 2018 the university published "Leibniz University Hannover" to be the official translation of the short form of its name. All three ranking bodies mentioned in the 2017 move request have adopted this translation. Betterkeks (talk) 03:34, 20 June 2022 (UTC)

- Concur that this would go to The Imperfects, and the current hatnote suffices as the dab. However, @Revirvlkodlaku, is there any report that filming of the series has begun? A series order is typically not enough to keep an article as it can still be cancelled at any point at higher cost (even a week before production as Draft:Demimonde (TV series) was.) -2pou (talk) 15:16, 20 June 2022 (UTC)

- Schierbecker Why is an admin needed for this and not just a pagemover? Am I missing something? -Kj cheetham (talk) 10:21, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
- Indeed, an admin is not needed because the page is not move-protected. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 13:40, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Schierbecker, can you explain further why DABNAME would favor this form over the other? I don’t oppose, I just don’t fully understand. The last bullet of DABNAME at least favors the form most frequently used in its pages. I think I counted 5 single-word entries and 8 two-word entries (though a lot of those aren’t directly linked entries). As I said, not contesting, just seeking clarification. -2pou (talk) 15:19, 18 June 2022 (UTC)

- Mushrikun–Muslim wars → Early Muslim-Meccan Conflict (currently a redirect to Mushrikun–Muslim wars) (move · discuss) – Title restoration - a recent controversial, but undiscussed move needs reverting Iskandar323 (talk) 18:32, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
- Shouldn't that hyphen be an en dash per MOS:DASH? — BarrelProof (talk) 18:44, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
- List of Yakuza (franchise) media → List of Yakuza media (currently a redirect to List of Yakuza (franchise) media) (move · discuss) – The original article was unilaterally to a title with an unnecessary disambiguation without an attempt to have a prior discussion with any interested editors. The same thing was done to a related article, List of Yakuza characters. It was undone without opposition following another RM here. Same reasoning applies to this case here. Haleth (talk) 17:38, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves
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" tab of the talk page of the article you want moved, without adding a new subject/header, inserting this code:
{{subst:requested move|NewName|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 NewName
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 20 June 2022" 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. |
Note: 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)}}
Note that the |1=
unnamed parameter is not used, and that 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
, and replace current2
with Wiki
. The discussion for all affected articles is held on the talk page of the article at page 1 (Talk:Wikipedia
). Do not sign a request with ~~~~
as the template does this automatically. Do not skip pairs of numbers.
RMCD bot automatically places a notice section on the talk page of the additional pages that are included in your request, advising that the move discussion is in progress, where it is, and that all discussion for all pages included in the request should take place at that one location.
Occasionally the discussions for significant multi-move requests may be hosted on WikiProject talk pages or other pages in Project namespace. For multi-move discussions hosted on a page which is not itself proposed to be moved, specify |current1=Current title of page 1
for the first page to move.
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.

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:relisting}}
, 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 is transcluded into the list on this page.
- ^ Despite this, discussions are occasionally relisted more than once.
Current discussions
- 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. 82 discussions have been relisted.

- (Discuss) – Diary of a Japanese Military Brothel Manager → Diary of a Japanese Military Comfort Station Manager – Professor Amy Stanley has indicated that the title here is inaccurate and does not reflect the scholarly approach, "comfort station" being the terminology, in part because it was not a commercial transaction but a service provided to Japanese soldiers. She expresses concern about the author on whom much of this article now depends. Stanley, Amy [@astanley711] (June 14, 2022). "Adventures in revising Wikipedia!" (Tweet).

- (Discuss) – Don Cherry → Don Cherry (hockey commentator) – A while ago I was asked to help with moving a page on Don Cherry's dog, and was considerably surprised to find that that animal did not belong to Don Cherry at all, but to someone else of the same name (someone I'd never heard of, but who I learned was very well known within a narrow field). I moved this page and was reverted (see above); a second attempt to do the same has also been reverted, so it's probably time for some discussion. The trumpeter appears to be the WP:primary topic: * on Scholar, "don cherry" hockey -jazz gives 722 results, "don cherry" -hockey jazz gives 1950 * on JSTOR, searching 'all content' for "don cherry" AND hockey gets 218 results, for "don cherry" AND jazz gets 631. But no matter, all that counts here is that the hockey person is not. No objection if a title such as Don Cherry (ice hockey) is preferred to that I've proposed.

- (Discuss) – Nasturtium (plant) → Nasturtium (crucifer) – This article is about the genus Nasturtium (common name: watercress), but the problem is that nasturtium is the common name for members of the unrelated genus Tropaeolum. This article isn't the primary topic (see e.g. Wikinav), so a disambiguator is needed. The current choice – "(plant)" – won't do because the other nasturtiums are plants too. For the 16 years until last week, the title used to have "(genus)", which may appear better as the term is the scientific name of only this genus, but the other topic, Tropaeolum, also constitutes a genus, so that's not precise enough. I'm proposing "(crucifer)", using what I hope is the still-not-obsolete common term for members of this family, but there's a second option: to go directly for the name of the family: Nasturtium (Brassicaceae). – Uanfala (talk) 11:11, 20 June 2022 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Mike Varshavski → Doctor Mike (physician) – Per WP:COMMONNAME and above arguments. There's little question that Mike Varshavski is not the appropriate title for this article under commonname. However, rather than boldly move the article I decided to put it under discussion whether Doctor Mike (physician) or something else like Doctor Mike (YouTuber) or Doctor Mike (internet celebrity) would be better. I think Doctor Mike (physician) is the most approrpiate as despite the fact that he's known as a celebrity doctor, his primary occupation is still a physician. There's also the issue of Michaela Quinn also being a physician known as "Dr. Mike" but she's known more commonly as Dr. Quinn and I feel that further disambiguation of the Mike Varshavski article (e.g. Doctor Mike (YouTube physician) would be cumbersome.

- (Discuss) – Thomas Thornton → Thomas Thornton (Church of England clergyman) – There are 11 men listed upon the Thomas Thornton (disambiguation) page, with no indication that the five-sentence stub delineating the 16th-century Church of England clergyman is in any manner primary over the combined renown of the remaining 10 men, including the American clergyman Thomas C. Thornton. Likewise, no evidence that the four-sentence stub for 1910s footballer Tom Thornton displays greater prominence than the stub for Tom Thornton (cricketer).

- (Discuss) – Argument from fallacy → Fallacy fallacy – It seems to my view the page should be renamed to the 'fallacy fallacy' instead of the current title. Ngram [1] shows that the term fallacy fallacy is used twice as often as 'Argument from fallacy' and overtook it as far back as the 1960's. The other suggested titles are either too low to be registered or don't show up at all on Ngram. It would seem that the term 'fallacy fallacy' would be the better title since it is the most recognised term. Dubarr18 (talk) 12:19, 8 June 2022 (UTC) Forgot to place the requested move template.

- (Discuss) – Apple Worldwide Developers Conference → Worldwide Developers Conference – Per WP:COMMONNAME. WWDC is rarely referred to as "Apple Worldwide Developers Conference"; that term yielded 16,500 results on Google News while "Worldwide Developers Conference" yielded 42,700 results. Additionally, this recent press release from Apple calls the event "Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference", not "Apple Worldwide Developers Conference", and notice that the initialism is WWDC and not AWWDC. Thus, "Apple" is a wholly unnecessary disambiguation. InfiniteNexus (talk) 04:38, 5 June 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi!

- (Discuss) – Pennsylvania Station (Baltimore) → Baltimore Penn Station – This is the most commonly used name in multiple official sources, in most secondary sources, and is known as this by the general public. Pennsylvania Station may be a valid expanded form, but Penn Station is sanctioned as the name for this station to a degree where calling it anything else makes it less recognizable. To that end, I am emphasizing that this request only pertains to this station and does not ask for anything related to other stations with a similar name. Many of those have been evaluated independently already, but I do not think the same reasoning is applicable in every case, which is why I am requesting this for Baltimore Penn Station. It may be worth noting that the name "Baltimore Penn Station" also is helpful in that it naturally disambiguates better from Penn-North station, a metro station in Baltimore named after Pennsylvania Avenue. The inclusion of the city name in the station name both matches how it is commonly referred to, and adds context that it is an inter-city passenger rail hub. When I think of things named "Pennsylvania" as it pertains to features with more local relevance, I tend to think of Pennsylvania Avenue first, which is in a different part of the city than Penn Station.

- (Discuss) – Glinciszki massacre → Glitiškės massacre – The place name that should be used in naming a massacre is the name that is used in the country that the location is in right now, not in the past, and regardless of the massacre's targets. For example, Lviv pogroms (1941) use the name of Lviv, the Ukrainian name, instead of the Polish Lwów, regardless of the city's ethnic composition at the time of the event. Another example is Rathlin Island massacre, where the English-language Rathlin is used instead of the Irish Reachlainn, which should be the case if one was naming articles based on the victim's ethnicity instead of the current place name. Another example of where the current place-name instead of ethnic-related names are used is the List of massacres in Romania, where it is written the Romanian-language Geoagiu massacre instead of the Hungarian-language Algyógy massacre or the Romanian-language Bucerdea Vinoasă massacre instead of the Hungarian-language Borosbocsárd massacre, even if the massacres were committed against Hungarians.

In 914/1508, however, Shah Isma'il Safawi [see Isma'il I], after his capture of Baghdad, occupied Hawiza, Dizful and Shushtar, and received the submission of the Musha'sha sultans." / "As a consequence of Musha'sha rule, the western portion of Khuzistan became known, from early Safawid times, as 'Arabistan. In later Safawid times, the title of "wali of 'Arabistan", was conferred on the Musha'sha sultans." / "As a result of this great influx of Arabs, the name of 'Arabistan was, by the 19th-century, usually applied to the province as a whole. In the 19th-century, control of the province virtually passed from the hands of the central government into those of the shaykhs of Muhammara (Khurramshahr), and it was not until 1925 that Rida Shah Pahlawi [q.v.] overthrew the Shaykh of Muhammara and restored the name of Khuzistan." - pp. 80–81 - Savory, R.M (1986).

Brill #The “occupation” that occurred in 1925 was in reality a reassertion of direct control by the Persian state. For some time before that event, the western part of Khuzestan, known at the time as Arabistan, had in effect been ruled as an autonomous emirate centred on the city of Muhammarah, under Shaykh Khazal al-Kabi / Following Reza Khan’s coup in 1921, a drive towards centralisation and eradication of tribal autonomy was launched by Iran’s new ruler (who proclaimed himself Shah in 1925). In response to the infraction on his autonomy, Shaykh Khazal rose in rebellion in 1924, which was subdued by Reza Khan the next year. The Emirate of Muhammarah was crushed and Shaykh Khazal placed under house arrest in Tehran. - p. 256 - Franzen, Johan (2021).

At the end of the nineteenth century, their local influence was overshadowed by the rise of the rulers of Muḥammara from the Arab Banū Kalb, but the Musha‘sha‘ family nevertheless managed to survive up to the time of Riḍā Shāh Pahlawi (see below, no. 152). - p. 279 - Bosworth, C.E.

The Musha'sha' chief was appointed Vali or governor of Huvayza by the Safavids, and he wielded considerable influence in Khuzestan affairs." / "What it meant was that the Qajar authorities established control over the Ka'b, while, in a reversal of roles, the latter became the vassals of the Sheikh of Muhammarah, who until the 1840s had been a vassal of the supreme chief of the Ka'b." - pp. 278–279 - Floor, Willem (2006).

- (Discuss) – Guru Nanak → Nanak – The Sanskrit religious title Guru is primarily used for Nanak by Sikhs, not all people commonly refer to him by using the prefix 'Guru'. Only Sikhs consider Nanak to be a 'guru', similarly Muslims consider Muhammad to be a Prophet, but we don't use 'Prophet Muhammad' here on Wikipedia, we simply have Muhammad. Christians consider Jesus to be a Christ, though we do not have Jesus Christ, we simply have Jesus. In the same manner, Sikhs consider Nanak to be Guru, but we should simply have Nanak, instead of Guru Nanak. A much more convincing argument would be WP:COMMONNAME. The Google Ngram results largely favor 'Nanak' over 'Guru Nanak'. The much-more reliable Google Scholars shows 48,800 results for Guru Nanak whereas a much larger 66,900 results for Nanak.

The name of the entry should therefore accurately reflect this use of the tribe's name.

Magneto (X-Men film series) is more precise and in line with how other franchises disambiguate their live-action adaptations against the comic original (Tony Stark (Marvel Cinematic Universe), Diana Prince (DC Extended Universe)). Magneto in the MCU is inevitable at some point (perhaps a poor argument but worth mentioning), so (film character) will have to go. 2001:8F8:172B:4994:DC02:82C5:47AB:C52C (talk) 13:13, 5 June 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi!

- (Discuss) – Artistic swimming at the 1994 Asian Games → Synchronized swimming at the 1994 Asian Games – In according to the FINA[1][2], the name of synchronized swimming was changed to artistic swimming in July. 2017 and it was effective immediately and used in an upcoming Tokyo Olympiad and other continent games, especially Jakarta-Palembang Asiad. However, some editors moved these articles that I mentioned before from Synchronized swimming to Artistic swimming in the years prior to the FINA rename announcement (1994 to 2014). I didn't agree that someone change the past name with the current name without official references of that games. The official of that games still used the "Synchronized swimming". [Results of 1994 Asiad][Results of 1998 Asiad][Official Reports of 2002 Asiad][Schedule of 2006 Asiad][Results of 2010 Asiad] The name of the article should rely on the official references. And another thing, the Olympic and Pan American Games articles on Synchronized swimming prior to the FINA rename announcement weren't changed from Synchronized swimming to Artistic swimming.

The conflict is now being commonly called as the War against ISIS, for example: [26] and [27], the new name is shorter and reflects better the fact that this was a war between a war and not an unified effort since many countries such as Iran, Turkey, Russia and the US were not on the same side yet partaking in this conflict.

- (Discuss) – Wikipedia:RR (disambiguation) → Wikipedia:RR – Too many other Wikipedia space pages can be referred to as RR for Wikiproject Trains to be the primary topic; page views has 6,580 people viewing this page in the past year, almost as many as viewed Wikipedia:WikiProject Trains, and the similarity in the trendlines suggest that most of the views of the WikiProject are intended for this page.

- (Discuss) – Jelly Roll (rapper) → Jelly Roll (musician) – He records in genres other than rap/hip-hop. The AllMusic bio also lists country, one of his songs is #1 on the Mainstream Rock charts, and this source describes "Son of a Sinner" as a country song.

- (Discuss) – Melakha → 39 Melakhot – Seconded. What the heck is this move? The resulting sentence makes no sense whatsoever. This is a mistake. While we could say "Melakha is prohibited work on the Sabbath, of which there are 39 types (39 Melakhot)" and be grammatically correct, the previous name was better.

- (Discuss) – Fast Break Fury → Rochester RazorSharks – This would reverse a page move from November so that a new article can be written about the Fast Break Fury. No reliable sources have been presented (nor found with a search) that indicate that the Fast Break Fury is a renamed version of the Rochester RazorSharks.

- (Discuss) – What's Going On (Marvin Gaye song) → What's Going On (song) – Page views indicate that the Marvin Gaye song is far and away the primary song, receiving more views in any given day than the other songs with the same name get in a month put together. There are also several cover versions discussed in the article, which may make it confusing for users looking for those without knowing the original artist. Turnagra (talk) 00:44, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa → R Praggnanandhaa – Most sources (including FIDE) prefer to use the initial R as opposed to the full form Rameshbabu [28][29][30] [31], as mentioned in the above move discussion. The discussion was closed with no consensus about this move, but it seemed like several users supported the move so I'd like to reopen it to hear more opinions on this. 9ninety (talk) 14:59, 21 May 2022 (UTC)Italic text

- (Discuss) – Thalía → Thalía (singer) – per balance of WP:CRITERIA, visually non-distinctive from the Thalia dab page, restore parenthetical disambiguation but leave bare name Thalía as primary redirect. The tiny accent on i not visible to many readers and many English non-high MOS quality sources such as pop webpages can't show the accent. Reader unfriendly.

- (Discuss) – Sisodias of Mewar → List of Ranas of Mewar – Currently, this page consists of :
* History **Conflicts with the Mughals **Under British Raj **Post-Independence *List of Maharanas
The Udaipur State page also consists of the same structure but also includes information about the Guhila dynasty. So this page must be made an exclusive page for the list, hence must be Renamed and all the other information in this page will be Merged the Udaipur State. >>> Extorc.talk 06:09, 10 May 2022 (UTC)— Relisting.

- (Discuss) – Greeks in Russia and the Soviet Union → Greeks in Russia – Similar articles generally just say "Russia" while still including the group's Soviet-era history, which makes sense, as Russia is generally accepted as the successor of the Soviet Union. Examples include Ethnic Chinese in Russia, Japanese people in Russia, and Iranians in Russia. An anonymous username, not my real name (talk) 22:03, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Battle of the Siverskyi Donets → 2022 Donets incident near Bilohorivka – The Donets river (its article is titled Donets in Wikipedia, not Siverskyi Donets) has been crossed by Russian forces before, near Izium and near Kharkiv. See the map of the invasion we have on Commons [32]. Thus, this article's name is inappropriate, and readers who haven't heard of this story might not be able to realize whether this is a general article about engagements in the river during the invasion or not. Also, this was not a battle, Russian and Ukrainian forces did not directly fight each other. So I propose this title which I believe is more precise both in location and in time. I've had several other ideas, such as "2022 attempted Russian crossing of the Donets near Bilohorivka", "2022 Donets river incident near Bilohorivka", "8–11 May 2022 Donets incident" and "8–11 May 2022 attempted Russian crossing of the Donets", but I believe "2022 Donets incident near Bilohorivka" is both the shortest and the most precise title we can get.
