Requested move 30 June 2021[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: Page moved. Reverting bold move by Jayaseelan2k. Most sources, at least until recently, spell "Napoleon" the usual way, as does the trailer for his first Hollywood film (see youtu.be/DpCjf_BJs3U?t=110). However the trailer for his next Hollywood film says "Nepoleon" (see youtu.be/2Lt-lz6-3EU?t=104) as does the official website. If this is a recent change in spelling, we generally look for reliable sources to confirm. In any event, Nepoleon is sufficiently unique as to not require disambiguation. – wbm1058 (talk) 12:48, 8 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nepoleon Duraisamy (actor) → Napoleon (actor) – some person mixed his stage name with his real name. 2409:4072:91E:44A2:CEC0:3291:FB98:F1F6 (talk) 17:00, 30 June 2021 (UTC) —Relisting. BD2412 T 06:35, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 23:25, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Lennart97, 162 etc., and 2409:4072:91E:44A2:CEC0:3291:FB98:F1F6: queried move request Anthony Appleyard (talk) 23:25, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Is it Napoleon or Nepoleon? The article uses a mixture of both, and the cited sources as well. 162 etc. (talk) 17:59, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I was wondering the same thing. In fact, there are even sources (such as this one) which use the current title, "Nepoleon Duraisamy". Lennart97 (talk) 18:17, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
We really can't establish a correct destination title until we know whether his name is Nepoleon or Napoleon. JIP | Talk 00:11, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support or back to Kumaresan Duraisamy but current title is wrong. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:27, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support: Move back to Napoleon (actor), and revert the undiscussed move. --Kailash29792 (talk) 10:10, 15 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support: The subject is mononymously referred by the reliable sources (either Nepoleon or Napoleon). Their full legal name per parliamentary profile is D. Napoleon, so "Napoleon" seems to be the correct spelling. Since Kumaresan Duraisamy is neither thier common nor official, its not appropriate for the title. -- Ab207 (talk) 05:14, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion[edit]

I'm tempted to relist.. noting

 12:48, 25 June 2021‎ Jayaseelan2k talk contribs block‎ m  17,893 bytes 0‎  Jayaseelan2k moved page Napoleon (actor) to Nepoleon Duraisamy (actor): Full name update

and the doubt over the spelling of Napoleon/Nepoleon, and that the article has never been at Kumaresan Duraisamy (undisambiguated) so far as I can see. Andrewa (talk) 17:15, 10 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think you should go ahead and relist. Nothing conclusive has come out of the discussion so far. JIP | Talk 02:28, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
