The result of the move request was: consensus to move once signed into law. The consensus is to move this article once it is signed into law.

Recognition of same-sex unions in Malta → Same-sex marriage in Malta – Place here your rationale for the proposed page name change. Andrew1444 (talk) 03:33, 18 July 2017 (UTC) }} As per recent request for an article name-change for Germany, I believe that the article on Maltese Same-sex Marriage deserves thte same. The Maltese Parliament approved marriage by a vote of 66-1, and the President of Malta is a member of the ruling Labour Party. This is bound to be approved.[reply]

I would like to ask you about the fate of civil unions in Malta? From 1st October 2017 same-sex couples will not allowed enter into new registered life partnerships because same-sex marriage law take effect. Is this situation going to be in Malta too? If it is not I will offer the article about same-sex unions in Malta divide into two sections. First section about civil unions and second about same-sex marriage as same as in example of France and United Kingdom.Jan Fial (talk) 12:20, 18 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Civil unions will remain intact. Ron 1987 (talk) 00:01, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Should be done once the bill is signed by the President. Ron 1987 (talk) 00:00, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support. As is standard practice for countries who have followed this path. Jono52795 (talk) 10:39, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support. As soon as it is signed into law, as was recently done in Germany. Isseubnida (talk) 18:23, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose because this article documents various types of same-sex unions (and is nowhere near long enough to warrant splitting). But I know this move will pass anyway. Jdcooper (talk) 20:15, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
