Requested move 15 April 2022[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: no consensus to move the page to the requested title at this time, per the discussion below. Dekimasuよ! 15:40, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

– This nomination is related to the concurrent Étienne Perier (governor) → Étienne de Perier at Talk:Étienne Perier (governor)#Requested move 15 April 2022. If that nomination achieves consensus, it would obviate need for the two-man Étienne Périer dab page and the two entries would be sufficiently disambiguated with hatnotes pointing to each other. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 17:42, 15 April 2022 (UTC) — Relisting.

Oppose At best, this request is premature. If the other move happens, then can give consideration. —Carter (Tcr25) (talk) 21:08, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This nomination is intended for consideration on its own merits irrespective of the other nomination's outcome. The director's name — Étienne Périer (as confirmed by his French Wikipedia entry) — is not accented in the same manner as the 18th-century governor's name — Étienne Perier (as confirmed by his French Wikipedia entry, which furthermore depicts his name as "Étienne de Perier", not as "Étienne Perier"). —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 03:44, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The move on fr-wiki was made recently with very limited discussion. One of the few comments in the discussion questioned whether or not the article title should use Périer, based on the French National Archives index of personal names mentioned above. It isn't clear if he used Périer or Perier, but, for what it's worth, the accented form is more common in modern scholarship. All that said, it may well be that WP:ONEOTHER would lean towards a hatnote over a disambiguation page (at least until someone creates an article for Blaise Pascal's nephew ...). —Carter (Tcr25) (talk) 12:11, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
