Golden Eggs[edit]

I do know that there are Easter eggs (Golden Eggs) in the game. Should I add it in? Rng0286 (talk) 05:25, 25 August 2019 (UTC) P.S. This is NOT a joke. (I promise.)[reply]

No, a list of the golden eggs or other hidden things are not encyclopedic content. --Frmorrison (talk) 18:36, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I get it. Rng0286 (talk) 04:09, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Angry Birds (video game) → Angry Birds Classic – that is the new name on the App Store 184.181.98.125 (talk) 07:06, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Natural disambiguation is preferred when possible, but in this case the game is not (yet) widely known by the proposed title (or if it is, that hasn't been shown). Dekimasuよ! 16:29, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. I'm not very fond of titling articles after retroactive renames. In this case, the game shot to fame as Angry Birds, and is predominantly referred to as such by sources. If I were to see an article titled "Angry Birds Classic", my first thought would be, "oh, so they remade Angry Birds?" Nohomersryan (talk) 20:55, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. While the game is today known as Angry Birds Classic, it is famous for just being known as Angry Birds, not Classic. --Frmorrison (talk) 21:07, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per above. The name the subject is most widely known by is "Angry Birds". Paintspot Infez (talk) 01:53, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Similarly to how we don't append "Remastered" to a game's title whenever it gets re-released on a new console, because it wouldn't make any sense._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 14:04, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
