2023 Beijing hospital fireChangfeng Hospital fire – more specific Bremps! 00:00, 19 April 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. – MaterialWorks 20:14, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Weak oppose - per WP:RECOGNIZABILITY. I'd be happy to change my !vote if there's evidence to the contrary. Estar8806 (talk) 00:26, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Most Chinese Sources describe the incident as Changfeng Hospital fire or Beijing Changfeng Hospital fire. Some sources include:

And so on, I think we should rename. Yxuibs (talk) 02:46, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral on 'Beijing' vs 'Changfeng Hospital', but please keep a year in there, so Oppose as presently stated. Polyphemus Goode (talk) 11:38, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The new title wouldn't need the year. Jim Michael 2 (talk) 13:01, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
We generally prefer keeping the year per WP:NCEVENT, unless the event is overwhelmingly known by a proper name. This one apparently isn't. No such user (talk) 09:55, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - The hospital is not well known enough either outside or inside China to warrant a standalone title. All major headlines even for China-specific media outlets go with some variant of "Beijing hospital" and not the named one. - Fuzheado | Talk 16:01, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
