[edit]

UEFA site seems to be more relevant than other sites. Russian squard - [1].

Are you acquainted with WP:RUS? Conscious 09:41, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
But what's the problem? «When something has a conventional name in English, use that name instead of transliterating» from WP:RUS;
«Two central ideas in Wikipedia article naming:
the name that is most generally recognisable,
the name that is unambiguous with the name of other articles» from WP:NAMEPEOPLEAsh063 18:42, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oops. I have to acknowledge my mistake. I somehow missed the most recognisable name for brothers, "Berezutskiy". But no-one replies, so I think I can simply add a letter to my request :). So correct names stats for brothers are:

It seems to me now that the fact that Malafeev, Akinfeev, Andrei Arshavin, Berezutskiy are most common and recognisable names for these players is clearly shown above. These names are also used on kits: Akinfeev [2], Malafeev [3], Berezutskiy [4]. Also "Andrei Arshavin" is the name used not only on the site of UEFA, the governing body of European football, but also FIFA, the governing body of World football: [5]Ash063 08:13, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My further investigations lead me to the fact that I should correct this request again. Taking into account that "Berezutskiy" is the conventional name for brothers, I realised that the most common combination of name and surname for elder brother is "Vasili Berezutskiy":
5 UEFA and 85 Google hits for "Vassili Berezutskiy",
0 UEFA and 1 Google hits for "Vassiliy Berezutskiy",
0 UEFA and 25 Google hits for "Vassily Berezutskiy",
65 UEFA and 1.280 Google hits for "Vasili Berezutskiy",
10 UEFA and 1.310 Google hits for "Vasiliy Berezutskiy",
0 UEFA and 434 Google hits for "Vasily Berezutskiy".

So the requested move now is: Vassili BerezoutskiVasili Berezutskiy. — Ash063 22:13, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I can also cite WP:NAME: "Names of Wikipedia articles should be optimized for a general audience".
It seems to me that requested moves are moves of that kind of optimization. — Ash063 06:09, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
