Move request

[edit]
The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: pages moved. Rough consensus that this is an improvement. The issue of the dash is a wider one and can be pursued independently if desired. Andrewa (talk) 06:42, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]



– These page names are a bit over the top in my view. The only qualification there is, is to the tournaments. HandsomeFella (talk) 20:24, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WP:DASH allows en dashes as sentence punctuation within a sentence; in that role, an em dash (unspaced) could equally have been used. Do you argue that this is such a context? It is not, I say. A title is not normally a sentence, and the present title is surely not. This is more like a subtitle, for which a colon is standardly used. I ask again: What are the relevant naming conventions?

I'm saying I don't think there are any codified naming conventions for articles such as this. But there are literally thousands (maybe tens of thousands) of articles that use an en dash in this manner. Seriously, look for any sub-articles to do with multi-national sports events and this is how it's done. Personally, I don't think there is any real difference between using a colon or en dash in this situation, but if you do think that's a better idea, one lonely article talk page is not the place to discuss it.
