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.

Contested technical requests
Requests to revert undiscussed moves
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 19 March 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. 79 discussions have been relisted.

- (Discuss) – Pseudomonadota → Proteobacteria – Proteobacteria was renamed Pseudomonadota by the International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes only in October 2021. Whilst ICSP is the relevant authority, the standard naming convention for articles about organisms in Wikipedia uses the common name. A Google Scholar search for Pseudomonadota returns, at the time I write this comment, only 12 results, one of which is the article publishing the new name and one of which is a comment criticising the decision. By contrast, a search for Proteobacteria returns 4,630 results published in 2022. Regardless of the official name for the clade, Preoteobacteria clearly remains the most commonly used name by an enormous margin, and should remain the primary name for the Wikipedia article until that changes (as it seems to on every other language Wikipedia.

- (Discuss) – Independent legal reasoning in Islamic law → Ijtihad – Ijtihad absolutely dwarves the use of the convoluted term "Independent legal reasoning" in English-language scholarly literature about the subject. "Indendent legal reasoning" + "Islam" gets about 700 Google Scholar hits; ijtihad gets 41,000. Almost all the terms in Islam on the periphery of ijtihad are already named in naturalised phonetic English, such as taqlid, jihad, etc. Ijtihad is a big enough concept in Islam to be treated in the same manner, just as it is in scholarly sources. Even independent of this, there would be a case for the change based on pure consistency, as ijitihad also blows away terms like taqlid in terms of usage. See taqlid on Google Scholar (just over a third the ijtihad tally) and Ngram. Iskandar323 (talk) 18:02, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – US Senate career of Huey Long → United States Senate career of Huey Long – @GoodDay:; @SnowFire:; @SMcCandlish:; @FOARP:; @ModernDayTrilobite: There are numerous problems with titling a page "US Senate career of [politician]". First of all, "US" is not American English, so if the title were to be abbreviated, it would need to be "U.S. Senate career of". This would be consistent with the titles of other articles concerning American subjects, such as U.S. Routes or independent agencies of the United States government. However, it also does not make much sense to abbreviate the title in the first place. The page "United States Senate" is not abbreviated as "U.S. Senate", nor "United States" as "U.S.", and neither should these articles. State senate articles, such as Illinois Senate career of Barack Obama, are not titled "I.L. Senate career of Barack Obama", so I don't see why U.S. Senate articles should be. Also, I noticed that the article United States Senate career of Barack Obama was not moved, although that could be due to the editors not being aware that the article existed. In any case, I would strongly support a move back to the original titles. -- Politicsfan4 (talk) 22:42, 17 March 2022 (UTC) Politicsfan4 (talk) 17:16, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Eastern Ukraine offensive → Southeastern Ukraine offensive – While this article covers only the military operations in the Donetsk and Luhansk Oblasts in southeastern Ukraine, this article is titled "Eastern Ukraine offensive." This can confuse our readers into thinking that the article covers offensive operations in both the northeastern and southeastern Ukraine regions, when this is clearly not the case. This article used to cover military operations in both northeastern and southeastern Ukraine. However, ever since content in this article pertaining to northeastern Ukraine was split off into Northeastern Ukraine offensive, the title for this article has not been updated accordingly to reflect the changes.

- (Discuss) – Bollywood → Hindi cinema – Already started on WT:ICTF#Bollywood vs Hindi cinema to make sure there's agreement in the first place before a name change is proposed with support. Hindi cinema is the formal name of the film industry based in Mumbai. Bollywood is a journalistic term and definitely not encyclopedic (interestingly, even Hollywood is not given an article of its own). For reference, the most important book on the film industry, by no less than Encyclopedia Britannica, is called just that: Encyclopaedia of Hindi Cinema. Generally speaking, the informal term of Bollywood refers to a sort of style which covers only a portion of popular Hindi cinema (see this book by Tejaswini Ganti or Govind Nihalani's article on the use of the term). As many viewers know, the Hindi film industry comprises much more than just the popular movie format. Moreover, Indian cinema has changed so drastically over the last couple of years where many of the ingredients which are associated with what is commonly known as Bollywood (a term which came up in the 1980s) have now disappeared. Over the years, and off late in particular, there have been film-industry professionals expressing dissatisfaction with the use of this term, which they find demeaning (Sources: Hindustan Times). That being the case, it is only logical to give Hindi cinema its formal name on Wikipedia.

- (Discuss) – 2022 Chernihiv bombing → 2022 Chernihiv bombing on civilians – I think this article needs a new title. There is a whole battle going on in Chernihiv. It's clear that the city has been bombed a lot. But this article seems to exclusively refer to the 3 March bombing that killed 47 people. However, the title does not exactly reflect that. It is titled as if it covered every single bombing that happened on the city in 2022, when such is not the case. We can take example of other articles with unorthodox titles such as NATO bombing of Albanian refugees near Gjakova and propose a new one. "2022 Chernihiv bombing on civilians" is not perfect as probably more civilians have died in the city as a result of bombings but I think it'd get us closer to a satisfactory option. Adding "3 March" into the title is probably not preferred so other options could be "2022 Chernihiv residential area bombing" or "2022 bombing of a residential area in Chernihiv", and "2022 Vacheslava Chornovola and Kruhova streets bombing" (probably a bad option). We could also follow French Wikipedia's steps and title it as a massacre. Although there was another murder of civilians in Chernihiv yesterday so maybe we shouldn't chose this option.

I searched for additional sources on JSTOR and found that "Under the Pyramids" returns more results than "Imprisoned with the Pharaohs" does. Several of the results for "Imprisoned with the Pharaohs" mention it as an alternative title.

- (Discuss) – Chernobyl → Chornobyl – The city is commonly known as Chernobyl in English, yet this name is derived from the Russian-language name Чернобыль. According to article 3.1 of the Ukrainian Toponimic Guidelines approved by the United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names, "Geographical names of the Ukrainian territory are formed and represented in writing according to the Ukrainian Spelling Rules in all spheres of their official use" (you can find the guidelines here https://unstats.un.org/unsd/ungegn/nna/toponymic/). According to the UN-approved rules of Ukrainian to English transliteration, Ukrainian name Чорнобиль is transliterated as Chornobyl (see the rules here https://unstats.un.org/unsd/geoinfo/ungegn/docs/26th-gegn-docs/WP/WP21_Roma_system_Ukraine%20_engl._.pdf). Besides, using transliterations of Ukrainian geographical names from Russian instead of Ukrainian is a relic of colonial past, not unlike using the name Bombay for the city of Mumbai in India. The usage of such names is especially offensive considering the ongoing fight for independence of Ukraine against Russia, the former colonizer, which wages the war trying to wipe the Ukrainian nation from the face of the Earth in the most brutal way.

I'm pretty sure the guy whose decisions affected the lives of the millions of people living in the United States of America is going to have more long term significance than a guy who owned art and opened a small gallery.

The "ATP Masters Series" article doesn't covers the post-2009 tournament, so it is incongruent to have this article include the results from since then. Wolbo attempted this move in 2018 but was reverted without reason, so I thought a full discussion would be in order. Letcord (talk) 00:15, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

The sub-company's website says it is Paramount Global Distribution Group, and the article was moved accordingly. However, on February 19th, the article was moved again to Paramount Global Content Licensing and an unsourced sentence was added to the article claiming that this was a second rebranding by the parent company. I cannot find any secondary sources confirming that. The only source I can find is the primary source - the sub-company's website - and while the website title as the Content Licensing name, the website itself still says it is the Distribution Group name. Therefore, unless there are other, contrary, more reliable sources, the article should be moved back over redirect. Singularity42 (talk) 21:08, 15 March 2022 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Wahhabism → Muwahhidun (Wahhabi) – using the exonym "Wahhabism" alone is quite misleading in this article since the term may mislead many people in conflating the movement with a wide swathe of religious groups of seperate origins that shares common doctrines. Sometimes, conservative movements with opposing doctrines are also used to denote "Wahhabism". Hence I suggest that this article title should be more precise to denote the Arabian regional movement descended from Ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab and his students. And this is why I suggested the title Muwahhidun (Wahhabi), since: * There are multiple Muwahhidun movements historically * There are multiple movements getting referred to as "Wahhabi" * A seperate article is needed to for the term Wahhabi, which is different from the movement of Muwahhdin-Wahhabi Hence the title Muwahhidin(Wahhabi) shall be more precise, accurate and less confusing. Moroever, the existing links of "Wahhabism" shall always lead to here; since it automatically redirects here. Meanwhile "Wahhabi" when used as a pejoritave epithet or to denote other movements not descended from Ibn Abd al-Wahhab, someone needs to create a seperate article for the label and its etymology.

I'd argue that Darth Maul is no longer his WP:COMMONNAME anymore due to primary sources just using Maul, and to whoever wishes to say that Darth Maul is still his COMMONNAME, I'd like to hear why instead of just giving the policy as a reason when currently primary sources have changed the COMMONNAME.

- (Discuss) – Challenger di Roseto degli Abruzzi → Internazionali di Tennis - Regione Abruzzo – Even if i am not entirely sure of this title change i don't feel comfortable with the actual one, using the preposition "di". Usually these types of titles don't match the official titles, and are shortchanges for longer titles. My rationale for the change of title is that the regional Tennis Federation, and in this article, this one, and this too, is used the proposed title. We already have a tradition of "Internazionali di tennis - Città di XXXXX" with the name of the italian city (Todi, Perugia, Forlì, etc..) where the ATP Challenger is played, and we have a prominent precedent for the title abovementioned in Internazionali di Tennis del Friuli Venezia Giulia with the name of the region instead of that of the city (Cordenons). I am aware the name on the official draw pdf is "Regione Abruzzo Aterno Gas & Power Cup" which is composed of the region name plus the sponsor name, but i recall there is already consensus on not using sponsor names on the main page of tournaments. Still I am not, i repeat, entirely sure we should make this move. I am ok with changing the title into "Roseto degli Abruzzi Challenger" or "Challenger Roseto degli Abruzzi" if you don't agree on the proposed one. 87.20.107.44 (talk) 12:26, 7 March 2022 (UTC) — Relisting.

- (Discuss) – Mark Bernstein → Mark Bernstein (University of Michigan) – Sahaib3005 moved Mark Bernstein to Mark Bernstein (regent) and then Mark Bernstein (Regent) (but left the resulting redirect pointing to that page). 162 etc. requested a revert of that at WP:RM/TR, which I actioned, but I think Sahaib was right that there is no primary topic for this name. A Google search for "Mark Bernstein" reveals a mix of the three people mentioned at the DAB as well as a few non-notable Marks Bernstein, suggesting that no one has a real claim to being the primary topic of this name. This is further borne out by Special:WhatLinksHere/Mark Bernstein, which shows that people routinely link this page looking for someone else: [10] [11] for Mark H. Bernstein, [12] for Mark Bernstein (Wikimedian) (added before he had an article), and [13] [14] for Mark Bernstein (author) (this guy... I'd add him to the DAB but can't find a suitable redirect target). To me that makes it pretty clear that there's no primary topic. Furthermore, attention on Wikimedian Mark Bernstein can only be expected to grow in coming days and weeks. I could live with moving this to (regent) or (Regent) as Sahaib did, but, since that seems to be a disambiguator almost never used for university regents, I would suggest "University of Michigan" instead, describing his affiliation rather than role. Still, I don't want some bikeshedding to get in the way of a PTOPIC-based move, and support any reasonable disambiguator. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 18:17, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Saint Peter's Peacocks and Peahens → Saint Peter's Peacocks – The women's athletic teams at Saint Peter's University have used the Peacocks moniker as well since 2013. That August, a move was made by The Ink Daddy! but was reverted four months later by Jrcla2. It is standard for these article titles to be updated in this instance. A perusal of the SPU athletics website shows no mention of Peahens in any recent year; indeed, the women's basketball players wear "Peacocks" jerseys. The name is not mentioned in the athletics style guide which was revised after a major rebrand effort in 2020 ([15]). I believe this undiscussed reversion from years ago is actually causing reliable sources to print Peahens as a name years after its discontinuation by the university. A March 4, 2022, Times Herald-Record article used the name Peahens (republished by Yahoo at [16]), and I see a few other scattered stories that are using this name incorrectly in recent years. In 2014, The Statesman, the student newspaper at SUNY Stony Brook, had to print a correction about the name:
A previous version referred to the Saint Peter’s women’s basketball team as the “Saint Peter’s Peahens.” The team is known as the “Saint Peter’s Peacocks.”
The university's athletics style guide does not even mention the name, and publications from their own sports information department do not use it ([17]). We need to do likewise. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 23:42, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

However, I have no objection to Gran turismo redirecting to Grand tourer if people think that it's the primary topic by longterm significance - but only for the uncapitalized, non-proper-noun version. The video game series should still be primary for the capitalized version. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 21:05, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Gex (series) → Gex – Seems the game series is the clear primary topic by pageviews. While Duchy of Savoy also gets high views, that refers to "Pays de Gex", a region in the duchy that is already only a partial title match. Similarly "Colomby de Gex" refers to a peak of the Jura mountains, and that is also naturally disambiguated. There is nothing that is a direct match for "Gex" that could also be seen as primary. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 20:09, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Conjuration (disambiguation) → Conjuration – There is no primary topic for "conjuration". Apart from a few rarer uses, the word has two more or less equally common meanings: 1) the summoning of spirits (treated at Evokation), and 2) the performance of magic tricks (covered at Magic (illusion)). Also, the pageviews seem to suggest that a majority of readers who follow the redirect Conjuration then proceed to click the hatnote link to the disambiguation page [19]. – Uanfala (talk) 19:05, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Vikings (2013 TV series) → Vikings (TV series) – WP:INCDAB states that
In individual cases consensus may determine that a parenthetically disambiguated title that is still ambiguous has a primary topic, but the threshold for identifying a primary topic for such titles is higher than for a title without parenthetical disambiguation.
I believe that this threshold is in this case easily met. The 2013 series is a critically acclaimed hit series and franchise (with Vikings: Valhalla), whereas Vikings (2012 TV series) is an obscure BBC documentary that aired 3 episodes over 14 days and had no lasting cultural impact; the pageviews also show that even at its lowest offseason pageviews dip it dominates with roughly a 100,000:1 ratio (and I am willing to bet that most of those page views are from people at Vikings (2013 TV series) seeing the "not to be confused" with Vikings (2012 TV series) at the top and clicking to see what it is). There is no chance that the 2012 series could ever come close to the 2013 series' popularity or significance, even long after it has ended, and after its spin-off will eventually end.

From the English sources given, it seems to me that "caretaker government" is the term the junta (SAC) used to describe its current cabinet, not a proper noun or title for it (that being "Provisional Government of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar"). Provisional Government of Myanmar might also be a good suggestion as well, although it might be ambiguous (for example, Ne Win had a provisional government, although the country was known as Burma at the time).

- (Discuss) – Use of force by states → Aggression in international law – The current title is really misleading. Yes, the UN charter refers to the use of force, but "use of force by states" could also refer to many domestic state actions, such as for example arrests, deportation, police brutality, etc. A synonym for use of force in international law is act of aggression or armed attack (see Sayapin, Sergey (2014).

- (Discuss) – Ukrainian refugee crisis → 2022 Ukrainian refugee crisis – My attention was drawn to this page following a discussion at WP:RS/N. The present title is rooted in WP:RECENTISM. During the war in Donbas, over two million people were forced to flee their homes, with a large number becoming IDPs in Ukraine, and another large number crossing the border into Russia. Was that not a refugee crisis? We documented this at Humanitarian situation during the war in Donbas back as it was happening, but it seems everyone around here has forgot the plight of the 2014 refugees, who were not granted nearly the level of media coverage as those leaving now. It is clear that this article is about the current refugee crisis, sparked by the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. Therefore, the title of the article should align with its scope, to avoid confusion. I therefore propose a move to 2022 Ukrainian refugee crisis. RGloucester — ☎ 16:22, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

In particular, even amongst English speakers, the Ukrainian form seems to be much more used than the translated form, indicating that — for the purposes of WP:UE — this is the common name for the salute.

- (Discuss) – The Exorcist (film) → The Exorcist – It is time, in fact it is long past time, to reopen this discussion, for two reasons. First, rather than rely on Google hits, we have our own pageview data, which shows that the article about the film gets, on average, 13 times as many visits a day as the the article about the franchise (You only need to look at the y axis). This establishes rather beyond doubt that even if the book came first, the PRIMARYTOPIC here is the original movie. The public overwhelmingly associates the two words with Linda Blair bleeding all over her hospital gown, barfing pea soup all over Jason Miller, masturbating with a crucifix and telling him to sodomize her, in so many words. Why we feel that "(film)" is necessary for that is beyond me. Second is the (ahem) unholy mess behind the second move, which is rather more of a merger since the two articles, again for reasons that are unclear, are largely duplicative of each other (itself a secondary argument for this whole move IMO). I think the idea was originally to have one for just the film series, but in July that was moved, apparently without awareness that the standalone title article exists as well, to cover the same subject of the franchise as a whole.

- (Discuss) – Hollywood → Hollywood, Los Angeles – I believe the current names for these two articles has a few issues: it leaves Cinema of the United States at not its WP:COMMONNAME, leaves Hollywood not WP:CONSISTENT with all the other Neighborhoods of Los Angeles, and does not give the clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of the term "Hollywood" to the movie industry. "Hollywood actor/actress", History of Hollywood, Hollywood blacklist etc., references to "Hollywood" in reliable sources and on Wikipedia are rarely referring to the actual physical location versus the industry named after it. The current situation leaves lots of room for erroneous links in articles to a specific (though still notable and important) Los Angeles neighborhood, many of which can be seen when looking at the list. Examples of reliable sources using "Hollywood" without clarifying they mean the industry not the place: [24][25][26][27][28]. I had difficulty finding articles that use "Hollywood" to refer to the place without clarifying they mean the neighborhood outside of local reports regarding construction and crime, since so much of a google search is about the movie industry.

- (Discuss) – Gorō Miyazaki → Goro Miyazaki – Considering the guidelines at WP:SPNC, which state that "For minor spelling variations (capitalization, diacritics, punctuation and spacing after initials, etc.): when a consistent and unambiguous self-published version exists, it is usually followed", and those for modern Japanese names, which state that, if no "most commonly used name" can be established, "Use the form personally or professionally used by the person, if available in the English/Latin alphabet", I believe the title of this article should be "Goro Miyazaki", without a macron. Professional press articles are split between romanizing the name as Gorō, Gorô, or Goro. As there is a lack of consensus between them, then, following the guidelines I linked to above, we should refer to what the person themselves appears to prefer. Although Studio Ghibli's own site does not give Roman names for its staff (at least, I haven't seen any on it), official media closely related to the studio predominantly uses "Goro" without any macron or circumflex, including the Japanese site for Earwig and the Witch (see "GORO" near the top of the page) and Wild Bunch's web pages, posters and press kits for Earthsea, Poppy Hill, and Earwig (the French poster for the last of those uses Gorō, but the English-language web page and press kit use Goro). The official Northern American site for Studio Ghibli, run for Ghibli by their NA distributor, GKIDS, uses Goro.

As a definitive source of record to backup the requested change, please see on Discogs where as an artist/band they are correctly listed as “Nymphs” and where cover artwork for all of their releases can be found with NONE incorporating the word “The” as part of the band’s name.[12] For the album article “The Nymphs”, the title is incorrect. The name of the album (which is self-titled) is simply “Nymphs”. I have been able to make all the appropriate edits to the page article content, but not for the article title that remains as “The Nymphs (album)”. (Link below). Also the links back to the Band Wiki page in the Album Infobox (x2) need to be updated to the corrected artist page article title move that I have requested (assuming that it gets approved). The article title should be: “Nymphs (Album)” (for the purpose of disambiguation with the term “Nymph”), including the word “Album” in title case, rather than all lower-case. Apparently the page will need to be moved to accomplish this and thus the request here in the page move talk section. Is it possible to make this change? As a definitive source of record to backup the requested change, please see on Discogs where both the artist and the album are simply “Nymphs”, not “The Nymphs” and where cover artwork for this release can be viewed. It does not incorporate the word “The” anywhere on it. It also does not appear on the back, either spine of the CD or on the barcode spine sticker from the manufacturer (UMG Distribution for Rock Candy Records/Geffen)[13]

- (Discuss) – Leonese dialect → Leonese language – Leonese, along Asturian (titled as a language on Wikipedia), Mirandese (also titled as a language) and Extremaduran (same here), are all part of the same language: Asturleonese. However, they are not dialects, at least not Asturian and Leonese, see maps on the actual dialects of Asturleonese we have on Commons here: [30] [31] [32]. The situation of the Asturleonese variants could be compared to that of the Serbo-Croatian ones: Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian and Montenegrin are not dialects of a same language, but different standardized versions of the same language, which do not correspond to the dialectal split of Serbo-Croatian [33]. Similarily, Asturian is only the Asturleonese spoken in Asturias, Leonese is the Asturleonese spoken in the region of León, and so on (although I am not sure if the Asturleonese variants have been standardized, probably not). I'd say it is better to have consistency among articles, since there's no reason that we label Asturian, Mirandese and Extremaduran as languages but Leonese as a dialect. Another option could be something like "Leonese variants of Asturleonese" or "Leonese Asturleonese", but that's probably not very widely used on Wikipedia.

- (Discuss) – KiKi KaiKai → ? – Should this page be moved? English sources seem to disagree on what this game is titled. While they mostly agree to write it as two distinct words, they are split on capitalizing the middle Ks (KiKi KaiKai) or not (Kiki Kaikai). Normally in Japanese transcriptions, you don't capitalize letters mid-word unless it was an official stylization. I decided to do some research. Since this game was originally published only in Japanese (奇々怪界), I searched to find times it was officially published in English to see what it was titled. Here are the results: *Ki-Ki-Kai-Kai (Mobile, 2003) [34] *Ki Ki Kai Kai (Taito Legends 2, 2006) [35] *Ki Ki Kai Kai (Taito Legends Power-Up, 2006) [36] *KIKI KAIKAI (Arcade Archives, 2020) [37] though Hamster writes every game title in all capitals. Surprisingly, the game was almost always published as four distinct words! The problem is almost no sources currently write it like that (WP:COMMONNAME). But since it's a creative work, shouldn't we go with the title given by its creator? Interestingly, Heavenly Guardian, which was originally a planned 2008 sequel until it was rebranded, was originally titled Kiki KaiKai 2 (only one midword capital K) [38]. Great, as if we needed more confusion. Well anyways, I'm not sure what to go with: *A: KiKi KaiKai (current name) *B: Ki Ki Kai Kai (most common officially published English title) *C: Kiki Kaikai (commonname preferred two word split, but stylization removed) *D: Kiki KaiKai (used for planned 2008 sequel) Thoughts?

- (Discuss) – Terebinth → Pistacia terebinthus – Terebinth does not only refer to Pistacia terebinthus. # In the sense of ancient usage of the term "terebinth", ancient Greeks refer to both P. terebinthus and P. atlantica as terebinth.[1] The anonymous user below thinks the ancient usage of the term is not important, but nearly half of the content of this page is about terebinth in Ancient texts. # In the sense of the terebinth tree that produces the terebinth resin, P. atlantica is the main source of the terebinth resin in the Mediterranean region, instead of P. terebinthus.[2][3] Again, half of the section "Uses" is about the terebinth resin. # In the sense of modern usage of the term "terebinth", the definition of "terebinth" by the American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language is "any of several usually small trees of the genus Pistacia of the Middle East and the Mediterranean region", and P. atlantica is called Atlantic terebinth or simply terebinth in various sources.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] #The content of this page itself contains descriptions of other species. For example, it mentions the terebinth resin was used at the foot of the Zagros Mountains, but P. terebinthus does not grow in Iran;[16][17][18] thus, it must refer to some other species such as P. atlantica. The imprecision of the title "terebinth" is self-evident. It is best to move this page to Pistacia terebinthus, and turn terebinth into either a disambiguation page including Pistacia terebinthus and Pistacia atlantica in the list, or a separate page introducing the terebinth trees in ancient Greek and Roman texts and the current uses of the terebinth resin.

- (Discuss) – Polish hussars → Winged hussars – Per WP:COMMONNAME, the name Winged hussars should be prioritized over Polish hussars, because the name Winged hussars is more commonly used, e.g. on Google, Google Scholar and Google Books. On Google, Winged Hussars has about 197.000 results [41], while Polish hussars has about 48.000 results [42]. On Google Scholar, there are about 141 results for Polish hussars [43] and about 156 results for Winged hussars [44]. In Google Books, there are about 1,830 results for Winged hussars [45] and 1,770 for Polish hussars [46]. Moreover, Polish hussars as a term also include Polish hussar regiments in the Napoleonic Wars, in addition to the 10th Hussar Regiment in the II Corps (Poland) during World War II. This article definitely does not cover them, as something totally different is in mind, which is the Winged hussars. Cukrakalnis (talk) 17:04, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Megami Tensei → Shin Megami Tensei – I think there is an argument for moving the series article to "Shin Megami Tensei" which appears to be the commonly used current name across all regions, similar to how "Super Mario" became the name of that series going forward.

Furthermore, 99% of the the times this article is wikilinked in another page on WP, it is always as either [[Lega per Salvini Premier|Lega]] or [[Lega per Salvini Premier|League]], because nobody wants to read its full official name.

- (Discuss) – Talking animals in fiction → Anthropomorphic animal – The scope of the article is already outside of what its title implies, as the concept of a "talking animal" would only encompass a single section of it. The article is also already the main article of Category:Anthropomorphic animal characters. Moving it to a more descriptive title would allow its scope to be expanded to characters that act and talk like humans. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 17:16, 10 February 2022 (UTC) — Relisting.

- (Discuss) – Miliția (Romania) → Militia (Romania) – Per WP:ENG, there’s a perfectly good English translation of the original term, Militia, as in Militia (Yugoslavia). Alternatively, if the diacritic is kept, there’s no need to disambiguate, hence another title could be Miliția. Biruitorul Talk 21:58, 11 February 2022 (UTC) — Relisting.

- (Discuss) – William Robert Moore → William R. Moore – He was mostly known during his time as "William R. Moore" or "Wm. R. Moore" rather than referred to by his full name. –

- (Discuss) – Los Angeles FC → Los Angeles Football Club – Three reasons: # It is the club name according the MLS Clubs official page. # Ten other clubs (1/3 of the league) has FC in their name in MLS Clubs - not Los Angeles Football Club. # WP:CRITERIA: It is the recognized name (as described in #1); More natural (as described in #2); Precise given there is a better known rival named LA Galaxy.

- (Discuss) – Wyant Group Raceway → Sutherland Automotive Speedway – Race track renamed under new naming rights agreement effective February 1, 2022 Toontownrick (talk) 04:22, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Macdonald (disambiguation) → Macdonald – I don't think there's a clear primary topic. All Google, Images and some Books results are for McDonald's, the restaurant. While the name gets around 2 thirds of views of things called Macdonald/McDonald, 2,047 for the name 793 for Pennsylvania, 264 for Ohio, 255 for Kansas, 66 for Manitoba, 62 for North Carolina, 22 for West Virginia, 14 for the electoral district, 6 for Missouri and 5 for the crater, the restaurant gets 139,042 and Macdonald triad gets 13,927. The surname may be the original meaning but it doesn't seem primary especially when the "D" is capitalized. There is 1 given name namely Macdonald Carey so I have used "name" per WP:APOAT but Macdonald Carey could be moved to the DAB and we instead use Macdonald (surname) for the article.

- (Discuss) – Universal resurrection → General resurrection – User:Editor2020 pointed out that Judaisism and some Christian denominations believe that the resurrection will not apply to everyone, and suggested "General resurrection" as a more appropriate term. I supported that, but User:Johnbod opposed this move and requested a formal process. -- Beland (talk) 21:02, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Chronological list of men's major golf champions → List of men's major golf champions – Request move to match other "list of champions" articles such as List of Super Bowl champions or List of Grand Slam men's singles champions. I originally made this move BOLDly but was reverted as there could be a confusion between the new name of this article and List of men's major championships winning golfers. I'm not sure where to move the other page, but I can see a potential confusion (one article is a list of champions by year and the other is a list of the # of major winners). On 2nd thought, I actually think the 2nd page could be merged into the first, as some of the other pages do something similar. Natg 19 (talk) 08:49, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
