Requested move 12 March 2018[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. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: speedily closed per WP:SNOW and Wikipedia's guidelines in the Manual of Style, including MOS:TMRULES and MOS:ALLCAPS. This band name isn't an acronym, and the caps are just pure stylism. However, BOYS AND MEN should redirect here (which it does). Paintspot Infez (talk) 16:18, 13 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Boys and Men → BOYS AND MEN – The official name of the Japan band should be all capital letter BOYS AND MEN instead of Boys and Men. The article name BOYS AND MEN is being blacklisted and I believe it is an error for blacklisting the name. 10969boimen (talk) 13:18, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). -- Alex^TW 13:36, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Per WP:ALLCAPS, nothing more to be said._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 16:58, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as per MOS:ALLCAPS; the fully capitalised name is a style affectation, and has no function as an acronym etc. Jellyman (talk) 19:21, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, early close contrary to guideline. Also the name only appears in Japanese text so the nomination is incorrect anyway. In ictu oculi (talk) 22:15, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
