Requested move 26 September 2023[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Moved. There is some disagreement over the exact best title, but a clear consensus that the old title is too ambiguous (see also WP:NOTCURRENTTITLE). This is not to preclude future requests to move to the singular form or use a different type of disambiguation.

Associative containers → Associative containers (C++) – Plural form is insufficient disambiguation from general concept, "Associative container". Notice there was a previous requested move declined seemingly unilaterally, without consensus. [1] The page also seems to have been created with the proposed suffix, then moved, also without discussion. fgnievinski (talk) 05:41, 26 September 2023 (UTC) — Relisting.

Support insufficient. In ictu oculi (talk) 07:28, 26 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see a strong reason for this to be WP:PLURAL in the first place, so I'd like to propose the alternative of C++ associative container (also per WP:NATURALDAB and consistency with the C articles). Your thoughts Fgnievinski and In ictu oculi? Alpha3031 (t • c) 10:00, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It could be a redirect but I maintain the original proposal, with a suffix, for consistency with other pages in the same C++ category. fgnievinski (talk) 20:51, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
