The result of the move request was: Moved to Beersheba fragment with menorah depiction. There is some consensus that the article should be move, however, no clear consensus on the final article title as there is also proponents for a merge to a generic article of title yet to be determined. While the generic article is being written, per WP:BARTENDER, the article will be moved to Beersheba fragment with menorah depiction. When the generic article has been written, feel free to redirect. – robertsky (talk) 14:17, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]


Oil Lamp FragmentOldest depiction of a menorah – "Oil Lamp Fragment" is a very generic "name" which doesn't seem to be in use as the name of this fragment. Wikipedia shouldn't invent new names for things which lack a name, but instead use a descriptive title. I had moved an older version of this page to Oldest depiction of a menorah without a redirect (as I consider it a very unlikely search term for this specific object), but it was recreated. I would suggest to move this over to the new name, without a redirect from the current name. Fram (talk) 16:27, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,
I don't think "Oldest depiction of a menorah" would be accurate, as older artifacts are commonly found. DutchPatriot (talk) 17:40, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Feel free to suggest a better name! Fram (talk) 08:18, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Beersheba menorah depiction may be a good one. Please don't capitalize all words unless it is an actual title and not a description. Fram (talk) 13:12, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
1. Ok👍
2. I personally like the title "Beersheba Menorah Fragment", how about changing it to that? If you don't like it, use your idea. I don't want any unnecessary problems, especially when it's my page. DutchPatriot (talk) 16:27, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
