• Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport → Mumbai Airport – (Discuss) – The current title is an extremely long and and uncommon title violating WP:COMMONNAME, WP:CONCISION and WP:NATURALNESS. Wikipedia requires that the official name should not be used unless it fulfills the criterion at WP:Article titles. If we were to see the usage in news media, "Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport" gives only 300 hits, "Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport" also gives only 300 hits, while "Mumbai International Airport" gives 10,100 hits and "Mumbai Airport" gives 21,100 hits which is way more than the current name and easily makes it the common name of the subject. Besides the current name doesn't even show up in ngrams because of its extremely low usage in published sources. "Mumbai Airport" is much more natural and recognisable, and readers are much more likely to search for it. PadFoot (talk) 10:26, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• Israel–Hamas war → Israel-Gaza war – (Discuss) – Despite the move request to Israel-Gaza war being closed as no consensus in February 2024, a lot has changed since then and RS have converged to use this name. This move is long overdue and aligns with the relevant Wikipedia guidelines of WP:COMMONNAME and WP:NAMECHANGE. RS per WP that uses the Israel-Gaza war name as the title of their coverage category: * The Guardian: Israel-Gaza war * The Washington Post: Israel-Gaza war * BBC: Israel-Gaza war * NPR: Israel-Gaza war * The Conservation: Israel-Gaza war * Al Jazeera: Israel's war on Gaza Other RS that uses the Israel-Gaza war name as the title of their coverage category: * Doctors Without Borders: Israel-Gaza war * Committee to Protect Journalists: Israel-Gaza conflict * The National: Israel-Gaza war * Middle East Eye: Israel's war on Gaza RS per WP that uses the Israel-Gaza war in their coverage: * Reuters: [1], [2], [3]: Israel-Gaza war * CBS news: [4] Israel-Gaza war * Vox: [5], [6]: Israel's war in Gaza This name change would also align with a third Wikipedia guideline, all five of the WP:CRITERIA one, namely #5 on Consistency, as this would align with Gaza War (2008–2009) and 2014 Gaza war. Makeandtoss (talk) 10:05, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• Julián Álvarez → Julián Alvarez – (Discuss) – His name is Julián Alvarez.[7]https://as.com/futbol/primera/por-que-julian-alvarez-no-lleva-tilde-en-su-apellido-n Akasakamoto (talk) 09:51, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• 2MASS J10475385+2124234 → 2MASS J1047+21 – (Discuss) – Make shorter (WP:PRECISE, WP:CONCISE). A number of digits far higher than necessary. New title is more natural, more recognizable, less precise, but much more concise. Almost perfectly meeting WP:CRITERIA. 21 Andromedae (talk) 19:26, 5 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Waqar💬 08:47, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• Vladimir Putin's December 2021 ultimatum → 2021 Russian ultimatum – (Discuss) – The title shouldn't have Putin's name in it, no more than Soviet ultimatum to Lithuania should be "Joseph Stalin's ultimatum" or 1939 German ultimatum to Poland should be "Adolf Hitler's ultimatum". These proposals were advanced on behalf of Russia, not Putin as an individual. "December" is not necessary since no other major ultimata were issued by Russia in 2021. As for possible suffixes, "to the West" is too informal, "to the United States and NATO" is too wordy, and "on Ukraine" is perhaps too presumptuous, despite the troop situation and the singling out of Ukraine in the draft treaties. — Goszei (talk) 08:26, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• William A. Sickner → William Sickner – (Discuss) – In a handful of film credits, subject was indeed billed as "William A.", but in the great majority of those, his billing was simply "William", as confirmed by his entry in The American Film Institute Catalog.  Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 08:07, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• Ruth Lange → Ruth Lange (canoeist) – (Discuss) – not WP:PRIMARYTOPIC Joeykai (talk) 05:47, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• Yi (Chinese surname) → Yì (surname) – (Discuss) – Yī (surname) is also a Chinese surname. Yinweiaiqing (talk) 05:22, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• Ji (surname 蓟) → Ji (surname 薊) – (Discuss) – We should use traditional Chinese since the only notable guy with this surname was from 1800+ years ago Yinweiaiqing (talk) 05:07, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• Xu (surname 徐) → Xú (surname) – (Discuss) – We don't need so many articles with Chinese disambiguators. Yinweiaiqing (talk) 03:58, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
  • Xu (surname 許) → Xǔ (surname)
• Kelvin Tan (musician) → ? – (Discuss) – Kelvin Tan is also a musician, so this disambiguation doesn't work. jlwoodwa (talk) 03:45, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• Long (surname 龍) → Long (Chinese surname) – (Discuss) – We don't need to use Chinese disambiguators unless necessary. The text says "Another name transcribed as Long is 隆, which is very rare in contemporary China." Yinweiaiqing (talk) 02:51, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
  • Long (surname) → Long (Western surname)
• Improved Military Rifle → Improved military rifle powder – (Discuss) – Per previous discussions on this talk page, recognize the topic of the development of improved propellants as initiated by du Pont but not limited to their product names. Dicklyon (talk) 02:23, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• Black Tortoise → Black Turtle-Snake – (Discuss) – The Chinese name literally translates to "dark/mysterious military" (no tortoise). It is usually depicted as a turtle (not necessarily a tortoise) intertwined with a snake. The proposed title has been used by many academic publications: "black turtle snake" - Google Scholar "black turtle snake" - Google Books ("Black Snake-Turtle" returns fewer hits.) Yinweiaiqing (talk) 01:27, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• Reed Richards → Mister Fantastic – (Discuss) – "Mister Fantastic" was the original name of the article and where the article was located for about 18 years until the above requested move in 2021 which had minimal participation (2 users supporting, 1 user opposing) and should have been either extended or closed as "no consensus" instead of being closed as "consensus to move". Having this article at "Reed Richards" is inconsistent: * inconsistent with his teammates: Invisible Woman, not "Susan Storm"; Human Torch, not "Johnny Storm"; Thing is currently at "Ben Grimm", but that was only moved there together with that aforementioned 2021 move which again, should have been closed as no consensus * inconsistent with his enemies: Doctor Doom, not "Victor von Doom"; Mole Man, not "Harvey Rupert Elder"; Puppet Master (Marvel Comics), not "Phillip Masters"; Galactus, not "Galan" * inconsistent with his colleagues, most Marvel superheroes: Iron Man, not "Tony Stark"; Captain America, not "Steve Rogers"; Spider-Man, not "Peter Parker"; Doctor Strange, not "Stephen Strange" * inconsistent with most superhero articles, even those outside Marvel: Superman, not "Clark Kent"; Batman, not "Bruce Wayne"; Wonder Woman, not "Diana Prince"; Spawn (character), not "Al Simmons" Wikipedia:Naming conventions (comics) says to use the common name: * Google currently returns 2,800,000 hits for "Mister Fantastic" OR "Mr. Fantastic" and 2,280,000 hits for "Reed Richards" (which would also include some hits from real-life people named Reed Richards, not just the comic book character), so Mister Fantastic is the common name. * Collectibles and merchandise almost invariably use "Mister Fantastic" rather than "Reed Richards"; just do a search for Mister Fantastic or Reed Richards toys on Amazon or Google, and you will see they are virtually always labeled "Mister Fantastic" on the box, not "Reed Richards". Naming conventions (comics) allows an exception if a character has multiple well-known codenames like Dick Grayson (who has been Robin, Nightwing, and even Batman at different points in his history), but Reed Richards is not known by any other common codename than Mister Fantastic. In summary, consistency, common name, and Wikipedia naming conventions all support "Mister Fantastic", not "Reed Richards". —Lowellian (reply) 01:24, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
• Charles Carroll (1865-1921) → Charles Carroll (philanthropist, born 1865) – (Discuss) – We don't ordinarily use lifespan ranges as disambiguators for people, but I'm unsure what phrase is best. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 00:09, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

August 12, 2024

• Generalissimus of the Soviet Union → Generalissimo of the Soviet Union – (Discuss) – Per WP:ENGLISH and WP:COMMONNAME. Google Search returns 11,500 results for "Generalissimo of the Soviet Union" vs. 91 for "Generalissimus of the Soviet Union". Google Books returns 1,320 vs. 311 for the same searches, and Google Scholar returns 47 vs. 10. — Goszei (talk) 23:06, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Ermou Street (Athens) → Ermou Street – (Discuss) – Unnecessary disambiguation. Killuminator (talk) 17:32, 13 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. BilledMammal (talk) 05:15, 21 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Safari Scribe^{Edits! Talk!} 23:03, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Jewish ethnic divisions → Jewish subcultures – (Discuss) – The current title implies that the listed divisions of Jews, such as the Ashkenazim and Sephardim, are distinct ethnic divisions or ethnicities unto themselves. This contradicts the way a majority of Jews self-identify, which is as one ethnoreligious group containing several diverse but largely aligned subcultures. Gaymarsrovers (talk) 22:28, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Wiener Derby → Vienna derby – (Discuss) – per MOS:AT, WP:TRANSLITERATE, and WP:COMMONNAME. Vienna is the most commonly-used name for the city and the word "derby" is a common noun. The vast majority of articles about football rivalries (from outside English-speaking countries) also use English titles. KingSkyLord (talk | contribs) 21:50, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Jasper wildfire → 2024 Jasper wildfire – (Discuss) – * Jasper Fire → 2000 Jasper wildfire Perhaps moving the article to that name or 2024 Jasper wildfires (note the s at the end), many people would probably search Jasper Fire and be brought to the other unrelated article.

• Children's Hospital & Medical Center → Children's Nebraska – (Discuss) – the name of the company has officially changed per their website swinquest (talk) 21:07, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Wrecking Ball (Miley Cyrus song) → ? – (Discuss) – This article is a likely WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for the basename Wrecking Ball (distinguished from Wrecking ball per WP:DIFFCAPS) per pageviews. If the Miley Cyrus song for some reason does not qualify as primary, it should instead be moved to the WP:PDAB title Wrecking Ball (song), as it has a ~17:1 combined pageview ratio with the Bruce Springsteen song and the Neil Young song (the only other "Wrecking Ball" songs with an article). JohnCWiesenthal (talk) 13:21, 12 August 2024 (UTC) (edited 18:03, 12 August 2024 (UTC))
• Mohammed Waheed Hassan → Mohamed Waheed Hassan – (Discuss) – His original name is Mohamed Waheed Hassan. Per https://presidency.gov.mv/PO/FormerPresident/3, double M is not there in Mohamed. In his Identity card and passport, per parliament old website, the Name is Mohamed Waheed Hassan and Full Name as Mohamed Waheed Hassan Manik. MAL MALDIVE (talk) 17:47, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• EveryoneOn → Everyone On – (Discuss) – requesting to move this page as the EveryoneOn organization has changed/updated its name to "Everyone On" as of June 2024. Everyoneonwiki (talk) 17:27, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Palestinian territories → Occupied Palestinian Territory – (Discuss) – This terminology has become standard across all official sources, the United Nations, itself and in its resolutions, and at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), in 2004 and reaffirmed in 2024, the EU and in many secondary sources. The ICJ concluded that the West Bank and Gaza are a single territorial unit: However, the Court recalls that, from a legal standpoint, the Occupied Palestinian Territory constitutes a single territorial unit, the unity, contiguity and integrity of which is to be preserved and respected. Thus, all references in this Opinion to the Occupied Palestinian Territory are references to this single territorial unit. Although still used in sources, and should remain as an aka, the existing title is currently an anachronism. Note that the OPT is also equivalent geographically to the area claimed by the State of Palestine. Selfstudier (talk) 10:17, 5 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Frost 16:15, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Coordination Office for the Preservation of the Written Cultural Heritage → Coordination Office for the Preservation of Written Cultural Heritage – (Discuss) – the correct English translation of the German name has no additional "the" Originalerhalt (talk) 15:52, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Wyatt (disambiguation) → Wyatt – (Discuss) – This is a misplaced disambiguation page. In 2016 the page "Wyatt" was split into a surname and a given name page, and moved to Wyatt (surname) with comment "Split given name and surname, and seems more appropriate to call this page 'surname' now", leaving "Wyatt" as a redirect to it, and leaving this long-established dab page at its disambiguated title. There are enough placenames and other uses that there seems no obvious primary topic, so this dab page should be at the base title. PamD 09:28, 5 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Waqar💬 14:51, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Luddite → Luddism – (Discuss) – For consistency with other Wikipedia articles, naming the movement rather than a term for adherents. Jruderman (talk) 13:50, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Template:Wikipedia Unreferenced articles improved → Template:WikiProject Unreferenced articles – (Discuss) – Per consensus @ Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Unreferenced articles#Template:Wikipedia Unreferenced articles improved. @Gonnym and Randy Kryn: pinging previous RM participants.   ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf)  13:34, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Special interest (autism) → Special interest – (Discuss) – The autistic topic is the primary one over the special interest group. It does not make sense to make special interest redirect there. PhotographyEdits (talk) 13:02, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Dark Phoenix (film) → X-Men: Dark Phoenix – (Discuss) – The article itself states that the film was better known as X-Men: Dark Phoenix through international marketing, its on-screen title, and international home media releases; it was only known as just Dark Phoenix for U.S. (and Canadian?) marketing. Propose move based on WP:COMMONNAME. – Nick Mitchell 98 ^talk 10:51, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Mischievous Twins: The Tales of St. Clare's → The Twins at St. Clare's (anime) – (Discuss) – English title, per TMS' global website. VenezuelanSpongeBobFan2004 (talk) 00:00, 5 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Waqar💬 09:08, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Voepass Linhas Aéreas → Voepass – (Discuss) – Per WP:COMMONNAME PhotographyEdits (talk) 09:07, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Makar → Makar (poet) – (Discuss) – I'm not able to find any indication that the Scottish term for a poet is the primary topic over everything else on the dab page. Google Scholar, books etc. only give results for people with the name. There is also a sizable Nepalese town by this name.

  • Makar (disambiguation) → Makar
• Suspicious deaths of notable Russians (2022–2024) → Suspicious deaths of notable Russians in 2022–2024 – (Discuss) – It is a weird style choice to use parenthesis here, which are usually used for disambiguation.

• Ernie Johnson Jr. → Ernie Johnson (sportscaster) – (Discuss) – Revert undiscussed move. No evidence that he is commonly known as "Ernie Johnson Jr." 162 etc. (talk) 00:02, 5 August 2024 (UTC) This is a contested technical request (permalink). 162 etc. (talk) 07:50, 5 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Waqar💬 08:49, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Gangwon Province (Korea) → Gangwon Province, Korea – (Discuss) – The parentheses imply a disambiguation, but there's no other country in the world with a Gangwon Province. This new title matches the formatting of the descendent split provinces of Gangwon Province, South Korea and Kangwon Province, North Korea. Note that Gangwon Province existed during the Joseon and Korean Empire periods, so Gangwon Province, Joseon wouldn't/shouldn't work. seefooddiet (talk) 05:29, 5 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Waqar💬 08:46, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

• Kalinago genocide → Kalinago genocide of 1626 – (Discuss) – The current title fails WP:PRECISION. Multiple RS assert that the Kalinago were subjected to a much wider campaign of genocide throughout the 1600s and all across the Caribbean. See inter alia Honychurch's article The Kalinago Fight for Oüaladli and Oüahómoni, as well as Buser's "Colonial Injustices and the Law of State Responsibility" (in article).

• All-Russia State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company → VGTRK – (Discuss) – Concise title and WP:COMMONNAME. 5.32.37.218 (talk) 08:06, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Caritas Institute of Higher Education → Saint Francis University (Hong Kong) – (Discuss) – The institute had acquired university title and renamed "Saint Francis University" under approval from the Hong Kong government on 9 January 2024 (more than 7 months ago). The institute uses the new name across its website and communication materials. Media, including South China Morning Post (1, 2) and The Standard, adopted the new name in their articles. The Hong Kong government Security Bureau also uses the new name. Cfls (talk) 07:08, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Marcus Berg (1714-1761) → Marcus Berg (writer) – (Discuss) – Better disambiguator, per WP:NCPDAB. Note that disambiguation is only required from a single Marcus Berg; see Special:PrefixIndex/Marcus Berg. jlwoodwa (talk) 07:00, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• List of air rage incidents → List of aggressive incidents on airplanes – (Discuss) – While some sources use the "air rage" phrasing, I think a more neutral title makes sense here. This article seems to be more broadly about incidents (usually aggressive incidents but not always described as "air rage") on airplanes. An example of a list named like this would be List of incidents at Walt Disney World. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 04:50, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Akan people → Akan peoples – (Discuss) – When a group of peoples and the languages they speak have the same name, it is convention to use "name peoples" and "name languages". Here are a few of many examples: # "Germanic peoples" and "Germanic languages" # "Austronesian peoples" and "Austronesian languages" # "Mongolic peoples" and "Mongolic languages" # "Sámi peoples" and "Sámi languages" Move per WP:CONSISTENT. PK2 (talk; contributions) 04:45, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
• Etisalat by e& → e& – (Discuss) – It seems like most sources refer to the company as e&, and that's what they seem to call themselves as well. Sources: Hollywood Reporter, Reuters, Fast Company, Bloomberg, etc. Alternatively, I would also support a move to Etisalat, if that's preferable formatting, because I think there is evidence that many sources use that as well (the companies former name): Light Reading, Developing Telecomes (maybe not independent), Tech in Africa, WSJ (2015 reference), NYT (2012), Computer Weekly, etc. Regardless of the option, the current title does not seem widely used or like the primary search keyword that would be used. It should be noted that we already use the "e&" formatting in other articles, see E& Egypt. Bestagon ⬡ 02:30, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

• Viva Las Vegas (dancer) → Liv Osthus – (Discuss) – For a while now, she's been referenced more often by her real name than by her stage name. Most people know her through her writing and activism (and now her run for public office) than for her stripping. Of course, everybody knows that she's a stripper, but that's not why they know about her. Isaac Rabinovitch (talk) 00:25, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

• Battle of Shuja'iyya (2024) → Second Battle of Shuja'iyya – (Discuss) – This is the 2nd Battle in Shuja'iyya during this war and thus ought to be called as such. The previous post called it 2nd Battle of Shuja'iyya (2024) which @Elli objected to as it implies there were multiple second battles of shuja'iyya, so it would be good if we avoid adding a year to the name. Genabab (talk) 23:01, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
• Politicization of Middle Eastern food → Israeli appropriation of Arab cuisine – (Discuss) – The entire topic of the article and all the sources are specifically about the Israeli appropriation of Arab cuisine. It is not about the general appropriation or politicization of food about other countries in the Middle East. It is not about Iran appropriating Jordanian food, or Oman appropriating Iraqi food, or Lebanon appropriating Algerian food. This article and its sources are solely and exclusively about the Israeli appropriation of Arab cuisine, so that's what the title should be Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 20:22, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
• Russian invasion of Ukraine → Timeline of the Russo-Ukrainian War (2022–present) – (Discuss) – Comparing the way Wikipedia currently covers the war compared to reliable sources such as Encyclopedia Britannica, War on the Rocks, and Harvard, the reporting on the war by Wikipedia is quite different. Sources generally agree that the Russo-Ukrainian War started in 2014 but its main phase/escalation has been ongoing since 2022. Reliable sources generally do not use "Russian invasion of Ukraine" as the primary term for the war in its post-2022 phase: "Russo-Ukrainian War", or variants of that like "Ukraine-Russia war" (Sky News), "Ukraine war" (BBC News), are overwhelmingly the main term used. Encyclopedia Britannia has "Russian invasion of Ukraine" as a subsection of the article referring to the period from initial invasion up to around the Battle of Kyiv but uses different sections for events since then; importantly, very few reliable sources use the phrase "Russian invasion of Ukraine" for any recent events so it is simply misleading to use that title to for the catch-all sub-article about all of the events of the Russo-Ukrainian War since 2022. For this reason, I think it's necessary to move this article (Russian invasion of Ukraine) to be clear that its scope is to serve as a sub-article of Russo-Ukrainian War to describe the events since 2022 in greater detail- and following a move, there would also be a good argument for restructuring this article, moving some content to the main Russo-Ukrainian War article and other articles. The necessity of a move has become especially clear with the recent Ukrainian invasion of Russia which is clearly a part of the war but not part of the "Russian invasion of Ukraine", but there are also other events in the war which don't fall under the "Russian invasion of Ukraine" umbrella (e.g. the counteroffensive in Kherson, the Kerch Bridge bombing, etc), so overall as this article has grown over time and events have occurred, the present title has become steadily less accurate even aside from its lack of use by reliable sources.

• Ultimate (sport) → Ultimate Frisbee – (Discuss) – On the basis of WP:NATDAB + WP:COMMONNAME. "Ultimate Frisbee" may be less official, but it's much more recognizable, making for a better article title. The sport can be called just "Ultimate" beyond the first paragraph, following common Wikipedia practice. Jruderman (talk) 18:44, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
• Hudson Park and Boulevard → Hudson Boulevard – (Discuss) – "Hudson Park and Boulevard" is too long of a name for an article. The entire street is called Hudson Boulevard, regardless if it is west or east, and the park has a different official name, Bella Abzug Park.

• Armand Duplantis → Mondo Duplantis – (Discuss) – He uses his nickname instead of his full name on all the major social media sites and Mondo Duplantis seems very common in news coverage as well. The combination of these two factors prompted me to start a discussion on how to name the article. Killuminator (talk) 12:49, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

• National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine → National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine – (Discuss) – Even though the official website states otherwise, I would recommend moving this page to a title aligning with British spelling conventions, since we are discussing an institution in a European country where British English is most common and other institutions, like the Ministry of Defence (Ukraine), follow the same pattern. I believe the people responsible for the translation of Ukrainian to English may not be fully aware of the differences between the two varieties, as they frequently confuse them. Several governmental websites use British spelling, while others use American spelling, and some display a strange mixture of both. –Tobias (talk) 12:08, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

• John Warren (surgeon) → John Warren (surgeon, born 1753) – (Discuss) – Attracted here by the improper hyphenated date range disambiguator in John Warren (1874-1928), I have learned that John Warren (surgeon) was the father of John Collins Warren, grandfather of Jonathan Mason Warren, great-grandfather of John Collins Warren Jr., and great-great-grandfather of John Warren (1874-1928). Several of them were surgeons (maybe all of them), so "(surgeon)" is not sufficient. I'm not sure whether the professor of anatomy was a surgeon, but I suspect he was, and I suspect some of the surgeons could be considered professors of anatomy. The "Collins" middle name was shared as well. In fact, I have found no evidence that John Collins Warren Jr. is actually called "Jr." in sources (see this article about him, for example, which doesn't use "Jr."; neither does this). He could hypothetically be referred to as John Warren IV, as he was the fourth in the line. He was not the son of John Collins Warren; he was his grandson via Jonathan Mason Warren. Note that the Harvard source also refers to John Collins Warren Jr. as "J. Collins Warren", and his father as "J. Mason Warren". —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 19:28, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

• Al-Tabaeen school attack → Al-Tabaeen school massacre – (Discuss) – The flowchart on WP:DEATHS makes it clear that as the people are dead -> because of homicide -> not capital punishment -> nobody is convicted, we could go with "Al-Tabaeen school killings", but given the number of people who were killed, I believe massacre is, sadly, appropriate. Foreign ministries across the Arab world have also considered it a massacre, and we refer to other such tragic events - of varying scales - as a massacre (i.e. Bucha massacre, Hoddle Street massacre, Samashki massacre, etc.), so I believe this change is appropriate considering the scale of the incident and the number of dead and wounded as reported by RS within the article.

• Qixi Festival → Double Seventh Festival – (Discuss) –  : 1. "Double Seventh Festival" would be consistent with the titles of pages on other Chinese festivals, such as Double Ninth Festival and Double Third Festival.  : 2. "Double Seventh Festival" is culturally neutral. This festival is not specifically "Chinese", it is a general East Asian festival (see Tanabata and Chilseok). Additionally, the cultures do not coincide with modern nation-states, "Chinese culture" is not a single culture, and it should not be equated with the Northern Chinese (Mandarin-speaking) culture.  : Of course, there are local traditions and regional differences, but the way it is celebrated among the Hokkien or Cantonese people is arguably as different from the traditions of Northern China as are Japanese and Korean ways of its celebration. Yet we don't have to split the topic even more into a Northern Chinese Qi Xi festival, Cantonese Tsat Tse Festival, Hokkien Chit Niu Ma Festival, etc. The "Double Seventh Festival" would be appropriate to cover all of the regional versions of this festival. While we are at it, Zhinü should also be moved to Weaver Girl, and Niulang to Cowherd (Chinese mythology). These characters (especially the weaver girl) also have different names even in Chinese characters, compare 織女 (Mandarin Zhīnǚ and Korean Jiknyeo), 七娘媽 (Hokkien Chhit-niû-má), 織姫 (Japanese Orihime), 七姐 (Cantonese Cat1 ze2). Currently, Orihime and Hikoboshi refer to those articles, and there are no articles on Jiknyeo and Gyeonwu. That would also be consistent with the article The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, which uses translated English names. QuestionableAnswers (talk) 11:17, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
• Dyfed–Powys Police → Dyfed-Powys Police – (Discuss) – MOS:ENBETWEEN as above, the MOS:DASH reason given for the previous move doesn't apply here. MOS:ENBETWEEN states:

  Dyfed-Powys Police is a single police entity named after the two areas it covers, not an article with a descriptive title on the policing relationship of Powys and of Dyfed. Additionally the force themselves use a hyphen. DankJae 11:07, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
• Casnewydd Bach → Little Newcastle – (Discuss) – Revert non-commonname, non-policy move from a few years back. It argued "original name", its use when referring to pirate Black Bart, using the name used/preferred by the Welsh-speaking community itself (this is English Wikipedia), and its use at the top of bilingual road signs (but all (new/local) road signs in Wales have Welsh first, [17][18] nothing about common English use). Noting evidence above. English-language sources use Little Newcastle, so indicating that is its actual WP:COMMONNAME. The prev. move also argued it was the sole name used by Ordnance Survey, but this OS map via Bing, uses "Little Newcastle". The local church is signposted "Little Newcastle Parish Church". LN – All sources (using a name) in the article itself use "Little Newcastle". As do the: *local history society (site is bilingual), Western Telegraph[19][20][21], Wales Farmer, Church in Wales, BBC[22], Dyfed Archaeological Trust, Pembrokeshire Council, RCAHMW, Puncheston Council, Pembrokeshire Herald, and government commissioner. While WalesOnline uses both, having LN first when referring to the pirate. CB – These sources do use "Casnewydd Bach", but only in the historical context of Black Bart (its notable resident), whose article has had the Welsh name since 2004 shortly after it was created (raising WP:CIRCULAR): *nearby council, Insider Media, Royal Museums Greenwich. So possibly when Bart was alive the name was CB, or sources took the name from the article, nonetheless sources use Little Newcastle for specifically the village today. Ngrams shows the common name is Little Newcastle. Additionally using "Casnewydd Bach" because it is older, and used historically for the pirate, isn't a policy argument, we use the common name as it is today. Also the standardised Welsh form has become "Casnewydd-bach", as on road signs, so the name here doesn't even match. DankJae 10:58, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

After the page has been moved the newly created redirect – "Orders of magnitude (magnetic field)" – can be edited to point to Orders of magnitude (magnetic moment) – which is closer to the measure of a magnetic field.

The current team has already lasted nearly twice as long as the old team, and shows no signs of going away anytime soon, so in my mind it's proven itself to be the most likely intended subject for someone looking up the team name. oknazevad (talk) 21:10, 1 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.  ASUKITE 21:29, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

Since its been a few months, and I am moving this to a different name this time, it should be acceptable (as in, not disruptive) to revisit it again. But anyway, similar to my previous rationale, the Midland Mainline TOC is long gone, and almost everyone searching for this is looking for the mainline, so I propose moving Midland Mainline to Midland Mainline (train operating company) then redirecting Midland Mainline to Midland Main Line. Even Google comes up with Midland Mainline first. I do get WP:SMALLDETAILS but I don't think it applies here since the primary topic is probably the mainline over the TOC.

• Ascalon → Ashkelon (ancient city) – (Discuss) – Recently, the name of this article was changed from Tel Ashkelon to Ascalon. The rationale was that Ashkelon and Tel Ashkelon are too similar, and that readers cannot be expected to differentiate. It was said that Ascalon is the name of the historical site. This rationale is invalid. The name Ashkelon, is the conventionally accepted name for both the modern city, and the ancient site. In many cases, the name Ashkelon is even used when referring to periods in which it was historically known as Ascalon. This place has at least 20,000 years of history, accros many periods of times. It was a prehistoric site, a Canaanite, Philistine, Hellenistic city, a Crusader city, an Islamic city... We don't always know its actual name, and it has never had a single way to pronounce its name. I am suggesting to change the name to Ashkelon (ancient city). I divided my argument into three parts: (1) Ashkelon and Ascalon are virtually the same and therefore confusing; (2) The toponym for the ancient site is known in maps and sites as "Ashkelon"; (3) the conentional scholarly name for the city in all periods is "Ashkelon", including periods in which it was called in different names. 1. Ascalon and Ashkelon are virtually the same. It is very confusing still. Differetiating them with "ancient city" in brackets makes no mistakes. Another option would've been "Tel Ashkelon", but there were times in which the ancient settlements in Ashkelon were not exactly on the Tel, and the city often controlled a much broader territory. Tel Ashkelon would strictly refer to the antiquties, but the article's scope goes beyond it. Another opition I thought about was "History of Ashkelon", simmilar to how we have "History of Athens", but I think that this might confuse the people who are looking for the history of modern Ashkelon, whose place should be in the article about the modern city. Therefore, I think that Ashkelon (ancient city) is the clearest option for the scope of the article. 2. Location identification: Today, the principal site of ancient Ashkelon is known as Tel Ashkelon. This is a declared national park in Israel, and it apears by that name. The official name of the park is "Ashkelon National Park". I think it makes a lot of sense to assume, that many people who visit Israel as tourist, will likely enter this Wikipedia article. They will not be referred to Ascalon, but to Ashkelon, either Tel Ashkelon (mentioned here, here, here and [27], which were the first results I was given by google. Therefore, the site, as a location, is better identified with Ashkelon rather than Ascalon Bolter21 (talk to me) 11:03, 20 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. ToadetteEdit (talk) 18:04, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

• De La Salle Green Spikers volleyball → De La Salle Green Archers volleyball – (Discuss) – The above existing pages have titles that do emulate the placement of a disambiguating sports descriptor after the team name, per WP:QUALIFIER. This style of adding descriptors has been prescribed by example by, among other similar college-sports WikiProjects, this page under WP:CBBALL and this page under WP:CFB for titles of pages about United States college teams. Clearly, these descriptors were prescribed in order to naturally disambiguate (by WP:NATURAL) a page about a team playing a certain sport from pages about namesake teams that are playing in other sports. In each of the team pages above being requested for moving, however, 1) the team name used is not that of its institution's team's uniform or collective name but the special nickname or unique moniker given to that specific team playing in its sport, so much so that the need for disambiguation disappears. 2) what is produced by the addition of a disambiguating sport descriptor after the team's special nickname is a redundancy. For example, there are no other De La Salle Green Spikers other than the De La Salle Green Archers team playing men's volleyball. For having a redundant title, the page's title then creates WP:OVERPRECISION and breaches the WP:CONCISE rule. That, however, can be salvaged by replacing the special moniker with the institution's team's uniform or collective name, a replacement which is what would have the need for disambiguation and erase the redundancy.

• Litening → AN/AAQ-28 Litening – (Discuss) – The article's lede immediately identifies that the only system discussed is the AN/AAQ-28. It is common practice when naming articles for devices which use the American military JETDS naming convention for the article to be like either AN/AAQ-28 or including the system name like AN/AAQ-28 Litening. For many examples, see Category:Military electronics of the United States. This would make the page far easier to locate since most users will search for either AN/AAQ-28 or AN/AAQ-28 Litening. It is not typical across Wikipedia to place the Manufacturer into the article name, such as Rafael AN/AAQ-28 Litening. I am not able to find any examples like that. But I am open to ideas.

Change loaded word 'destruction'—which suggests physical damage or violence, as if it were about a physical object and not a political formation—to the more NEUTRAL and PRECISE 'dissolution' as in Dissolution of the Ottoman Empire. Because this article is about calls for the dissolution of the state, change the ambiguous 'Israel' to 'State of Israel' to avoid conflation with בני ישראל (Bənēy Yīsrāʾēl 'children of Israel/Jacob'), a biblical metonym for Jewish people. Calls for the dissolution of a state are not calls for the eradication of a people; that would be a separate topic. إيان (talk) 20:58, 31 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.  ASUKITE 15:09, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

Common name proof: exact google news search for "Paik Jong-won" yields 381 results, and "Baek Jong-won" yields 300 results with more spurious results due to overlapping people names.

• Aegukka → National Anthem of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea – (Discuss) – After the DPRK's abandonment of unification, the title Aegukka seems to have fallen out of use at least on KCTV (first on the Hwasŏng Area completion event, and now the July 27 "victory" celebration), and Korean: 조선민주주의인민공화국 국가, lit. 'National Anthem of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea' has taken its place. On the other hand, the site of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the DPRK, as well as the current constitution, still mentions that the national anthem is titled "애국가". Another reason of my proposal is due to the current title's possible confusion with the ROK's Aegukga, where currently neither title has a modifier, which may cause confusion to readers not familiar to the two romanization systems.

If we need to pick one of the two as primary, I suggest picking the new one. Some people looking for the new one are almost certainly landing on the article about the older one by accident. There is no hatnote to indicate that a reader might have found the wrong article. There is also a New Brunswick Junior C Hockey League article.

This graph clearly shows the prevalence of simply "Pratihara(s)" over "Gurjara-Pratihara(s)" by a very large margin, i.e, more than 4 times. In my course of editing for Wikipedia, I've seen that scholars usually use simply "Pratihara" more than "Gurajara-Pratihara". It also seems like this would be a more WP:neutral point of view name.

It was a massive mistake to have it moved years ago, I don't recal if I supported it then, but if I did (which is possible) it was probably under the delusion that we would eventually have separate articles for the classic releases, the overall grouping of the characters by Universal and the Dark Universe, hence three articles to cover everything in depth. As the Dark Universe never became a thing there is no reason to not just cover everything in the same article by the common name (unless someone wants to put in extra effort into having Universal Monsters and Universal Monsters (1931–1956) to cover only the classic period. But that seems unlikely as of now.) ★Trekker (talk) 14:46, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
• Lille OSC → LOSC Lille – (Discuss) – The current title is wrong in both WP:COMMONNAME and WP:OFFICIALNAME. Firstly, the club's official name is not "Lille Olympique Sporting Club"-- that's what it used to be. Today, the club's entire official name is "LOSC Lille". "Lille OSC", the current title, is used by nobody both in common and official usage. In media, the club is often referred to as "Lille", "LOSC", and often times as "LOSC Lille". We could move the title to just "LOSC", but since the English-language "short" name for usage in articles is just "Lille", this wouldn't really work smoothly. I say we should go by the club's actual name in this specific case, which is also really commonly used in sources, only third to Lille and LOSC (which I don't believe are valid titles.)

• Gandhi (disambiguation) → Gandhi – (Discuss) – While Mahatma Gandhi is no doubt a legendary figure in world politics, it is hard to say he's the overwhelming topic of the name “Gandhi” to qualify for WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. Two former Indian Prime Ministers also bared this surname, along with some very notable and contemporary politicians, meaning such there are also differing usages in contemporary times.
  According to wmcloud for the past 30 days, Mahatma Gandhi has gotten around 305,000 views. Rahul Gandhi around 187,000, Indira 178,000, Rajiv 91,000, Feroze 88,000 and Sonia 65,000 among others. This shows that even though Mahatma Gandhi is a likely subject when looking up Gandhi, it is not the primary topic which views and notability are significantly and definitively ahead of all other topics combined. A quick look on the “news’’ section on Google with the term Gandhi appears to be also primarily about other Gandhis such as Rahul instead of Mahatma.
  For the reasons above, it is in my belief that the term "Gandhi" should be the disambiguation page instead of redirecting to Mahatma. Zinderboff(talk) 21:14, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

• Langley, British Columbia (city) → Langley, British Columbia – (Discuss) – WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. These two cities can be considered to be primary ahead of the eponymous Langley, British Columbia (district municipality) and North Vancouver, British Columbia (district municipality). The cities' articles also get roughly double the pageviews of their respective district municipality article. MOS:CANPLACE does not recommend disambiguation using "(city)", and, as far as I can tell, these are the only two Canadian articles that use it. Note that these moves would also affect Category:Langley, British Columbia (city) and Category:North Vancouver (city). 162 etc. (talk) 19:59, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

• 1976 British Isles heatwave → 1976 United Kingdom heatwave – (Discuss) – This article, like other articles on so-called "British Isles heatwaves" focus almost entirely on the United Kingdom. There's nothing wrong with that, but it pushes the logical thought should this page not be titled "1976 United Kingdom heatwave"? Ireland is mentioned in only one sentence. The page is entirely about effects on the United Kingdom. Even the section on "Government response" is entirely UK by default, as if Ireland had no government response. It makes sense to rename this page, and move the one sentence on County Offaly to the European page for 1976. Copying my comment from above on this talk page. Thank you.

• Korean table d'hôte → Hanjeongsik – (Discuss) – See #Don't love the title... above; "table d'hôte" is somewhat opaque to even many English speakers. If you're familiar with Korean cuisine, there's a good chance you know about hanjeongsik using that terminology; it's seen as pretty quintessential in Korean dining, and even available abroad outside Korea to an extent that many other Korean dining concepts aren't. However, I'm on the fence about this move, think it could go either way. As for whether to use a hyphen in "han(-)jeongsik", I think no hyphen is more standard, per [38]. seefooddiet (talk) 13:50, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

• Xavi (footballer, born 1980) → Xavi Hernández – (Discuss) – Neither Xavi nor Xavi Hernández is demonstrably the most frequently used by sources, but the latter is the better title because it's more WP:PRECISE and avoids the unnecessary disambiguation. Furthermore, on social media, Xavi Hernández is used as his name. Frost 10:28, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
• 'S Up → 's Up – (Discuss) – There are no references in the article but both two external links (IMDb and BBC Two) use the lowercase "s", as well as Apple and Amazon. The lack of sources is probably worth sending to AfD, but that is a different issue. Gonnym (talk) 08:57, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
• No net loss wetlands policy → No net loss policy in the United States – (Discuss) – The page focuses only on the policy in the United States, even though these policies are now found worldwide and not necessarily just for wetlands. I think the page should be renamed 'No net loss policy in the United States' and then a separate page for 'No net loss policy' worldwide could be created because this article lacks a worldwide view.

• SpaceX Starship integrated flight test 1 → Starship flight test 1 – (Discuss) – SpaceX has not referred to these missions as "Starship integrated flight test #". They call the campaign "integrated flight testing" but the missions, Starship flight test, Starship's second flight test, Starship's third flight test and Starship’s fourth flight test. This presents us with an opportunity to rename and move these pages to a much simpler, shorter, more natural name. Other sources do call the missions "Starship Flight #, however, my concern is that this may interfere with any future mission naming and including flight test provides an easy, preemptive disambiguation. -- RickyCourtney (talk) 00:32, 30 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Safari Scribe^{Edits!

• Hybrid instrument → Hybrid bill – (Discuss) – The article is mostly about hybrid bills, and only explains hybrid instruments at the end, in terms of hybrid bills. In 2015 Scott renamed the page from Hybrid bill to Hybrid instrument on the basis that the latter was the "formal name", and search-replaced "bill" to "instrument" in the text. That is incorrect; a bill is a proposed act of parliament (primary legislation), whereas a statutory instrument is secondary legislation. In 2019 Adam37 effectively undid the search-replace but the article should be moved back to the name of the main topic. jnestorius^(talk) 01:25, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

• Home improvement (disambiguation) → Home Improvement – (Discuss) – The header Home Improvement already redirects to Home improvement (disambiguation) and all the entries (except one) listed upon the disambiguation page use uppercase "I". As for the putative WP:PRIMARYTOPIC with the lowercased "i" — "Home improvement" — it is not even the sole term for this type of activity — "Home renovation", which redirects to it, could serve equally well as the article's main header. The lowercase primary topic / uppercase dab page are exemplified by the frequently-referenced header Red meat / Red Meat or the still-active Saddle tramp / Saddle Tramp nomination at Talk:Saddle tramp (person)#Requested move 8 July 2024. If consensus were to prefer a separate Home improvement / Home renovation header and an uppercase Home Improvement (disambiguation) page with Home Improvement (TV series) as the primary topic, as exemplified by Iron maiden paired with Iron Maiden serving as the primary topic of the Iron Maiden (disambiguation) page on which all entries (except the one for the torture device) use an uppercase "M", I would support such an alternative option, which was not approved 20 months ago at Talk:Home Improvement (TV series)#Requested move 18 November 2022. — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 14:42, 26 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Waqar💬 15:55, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Elapsed listings fall into the backlog after 24 hours. Consider relisting 8-day-old discussions with minimal participation.

• Landing Ship, Tank → Tank landing ship – (Discuss) – The military likes to list things by major category first, followed by modifier. The normal English way of referring to these things is actually more common in independent sources (some in all sources), and is more recognizable to most non-military readers than the backwards way that the military likes for list alphabetizing. None of these are proper names, as evidenced by frequent lowercase usage in sources. Example, from a Life magazine photo caption in 1943: "Boat is an infantry landing craft, carrying about 200 men. Offshore is tank landing ship." Another, from British War Production, H.M. Stationery Office, 1952: "It was, however, the tank landing craft, not the tank landing ship, that was to form the backbone of the British programmes of 1942 and 1943." I will add book n-gram stats for each, to compare both word order and case. Dicklyon (talk) 22:36, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Open to more suggested titles. Alternates: # Sinosphere age reckoning #* I think a little confusing; may suggest trying to determine the age of the Sinosphere itself. # Traditional age reckoning in the Sinosphere #* This is more precise I feel; currently, as far as I'm aware, the entire Sinosphere no longer uses the age reckoning for major applications, mostly just ceremonial.

• Register (sociolinguistics) → Socio-linguistic register – (Discuss) – Parenthetical disambiguation, as used today, is kind of a last resort. Sociolinguistic is a bit squished for new readers, so I prefer a hyphen for first use, including in the title and lead sentence. I want the title to be easily parsed by readers who have not heard the term "Sociolinguistic" before, or even the prefix "Socio-". Simply Linguistic does not disambiguate enough: see Register (disambiguation)#Linguistics. Register as a base name does not meet my understanding of WP:COMMONNAME; I understand it as requiring the low-context variant (i.e. not the term used in the middle sections of papers in the field). As long as the full term is used in the titles of some papers in the field, I believe the full term should be considered to meet WP:COMMONNAME. And, well... this full name is used in the bodies of some papers, at least. And "linguistic register" is used in plenty of paper titles, but we've ruled that out for other reasons. My understanding of WP:COMMONNAME seems to be borne out by success in move discussions I started: from "Inflation (cosmology)" to "Cosmic inflation"; from "Transformation (genetics)" to "Genetic transformation". But I think it's time for me to start a discussion on the MOS talk page itself about this "low context vs high context" thing, since it may exist only in my mind at the moment, or as a non-obvious implication of other core CRITERIA for article titles. All that said, I believe Socio-linguistic register is the best title for this article. The hyphen or entire prefix can and should be dropped for most subsequent uses within the article.

• The Doctor (Doctor Who) → The Doctor – (Discuss) – The definite article 'the' in the title designates this topic as the primary one for 'The Doctor' (but only with the definite article). This is consistent with titles such as The Guardian, The Signpost, The Postal Service, The Edge, The 1975, and The Undertaker. A Google search for "The Doctor" returns results related to Doctor Who, as does a Google image search. Similarly, a Google News search returns Doctor Who-related coverage. While a search for "The Doctor" on JSTOR for produces variable results, a search for "The Guardian" on JSTOR wouldn't establish the newspaper as the primary topic alone. A Google Ngram analysis reveals that the term 'The Doctor' saw an increase in usage in 2005, coinciding with the show's revival. Worldwide Google Trends indicate that "The Doctor" is predominantly used in reference to searches about Doctor Who, per the 'related topics' and 'related searches'; with a notable peak in November 2013, coinciding with the show's 50th anniversary special. This 'The Doctor' (with the definite article) has more coverage from reliable sources than others (with the definite article) listed on the disambiguation page. Amendment: Pageview Analysis (with a date range of 'All time') comparing all of the pages titled 'The Doctor' show that this topic has more views by a clear margin. It is limited to 10 pages, so I've split it into two: first second. On Wikipedia this topic is the most sought after 'The Doctor' (with the definite article) on the entire site. Note: When researching, "The Doctor" should be enclosed in quotation marks as some databases often exclude definite articles.

• Palestinian genocide accusation → Palestinian genocide – (Discuss) – Given the movement of Gaza genocide to that title, the current title here has become incongruously inconsistent. How can the parent of a child topic that is not couched in the language of "accusation" be couched in that language? It should be obvious than it should not. More generally, it has become apparent that the language of "accusation" is generally inappropriate. This is not only per MOS:ACCUSED (which outlines how the language of accusation is problematic in its presumptive deployment of doubt (presumably ultimately as a corollary of WP:NPOV)), but also per consistency with similar titles on similar subjects. There are many pages on the topics of presumed or suspected (but not legally ruled on) genocides -- this is in fact the majority of them -- but no other genocide topic on Wikipedia, regardless of how speculative it is, is couched as a "genocide accusation". See the search results. Likewise, the phrase "Palestinian genocide accusation" is all but unknown to scholarship, in stark contrast to "Palestinian genocide", which is a common and widely used phrase, including in titular form, such as in the 2013 The Palestinian Genocide by Israel by the eminent Francis Boyle. In the previous move discussion, I somewhat rallied support around the current title, but that was in October last year, before much of the subsequent discussion around developments in Gaza. It seemed sensible at the time, but that was then, and this is now. Events have moved on significantly since then, not least with the ICJ case and provisional measures -- and hence the Gaza genocide move. As this page covers the overarching legal and scholarly topic of Palestinian genocide, the weight of both everything that went into the Gaza genocide RM discussion, and everything that precedes it in Palestinian history, including the Nakba and all subsequent Israeli policies and actions that have been discussed as conceivably genocidal by legal and academic experts, is under consideration. Given that this page has a significantly grander scope than its child, its title cannot reasonably contain greater doubt than that of its child.

• Tales of the Jedi (TV series) → Star Wars: Tales – (Discuss) – Since this move made nearly three months ago has been objected to, here is an RM. I personally don't agree with the need as consensus was reached on the matter. Never the less, this anthology series had its first installment released as (formally) Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi (commonly Tales of the Jedi) in October 2022, with it announced in April 2023 that it would get a second season (wording used by media outlets, though the quote from Filoni was "Tales of the Jedi was so fun the first time, I decided to do some more.") Subsequently, it was announced a year later in April 2024 that this second "season" was a new "installment", Star Wars: Tales of the Empire (commonly Tales of the Empire). This press release shows the use of both formal names as well as the key quote in my view (and the determination of the previous consensus) that Tales of the Empire was the second installment of the "Tales" series. Thus, an appropriate name to address this anthology series considering the formal name would be Star Wars: Tales, which provides a WP:NATURAL name. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:25, 2 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. BilledMammal (talk) 17:46, 9 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. BilledMammal (talk) 05:42, 21 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. BilledMammal (talk) 10:39, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
• Bolognese School → Bolognese school – (Discuss) – Schools of art, schools of thought, etc., are usually rendered in sources with lowercase school.

• Artms → ARTMS – (Discuss) – Per MOS:TMRULES, When a name is almost never written except in a particular stylized form, use that form on Wikipedia. As well, under MOS:BIOEXCEPT and MOS:IDENTITY, living subjects of articles are entitled to exceptional stylization if groups clearly and consistently use an exceptional style, and an overwhelming majority of sources use the same exceptional style. When read in the context of WP:BLP, Wikipedia is probably necessarily compelled to use the exceptional style in such situations. A Google News search [45] does not yield any results which do not stylize the group as ARTMS. Included in the articles which populate in the search results for me are NME, allkpop, Billboard, Hindustan Times, Korea JoongAng Daily, ABS-CBN News, Pop Matters. Outside of Google News, sites like Sputnik Music which reviewed their debut album earlier this year all took care to stylize the group's name as ARTMS. The Korean language edition of Wikipedia titles the respective article as ARTMS, as does the Japanese language edition. While I invite editors to debate the reliability of these sources or discuss points of difference in policy (so as to set a robust precedent), I also invite them to find any reliable sources which do not use the exceptional stylization. Officially, their primary website could be argued as ambiguous since we only have the all caps logo to go off of, but their official fansite consistently stylizes the name of the group as ARTMS. Their social media is consistent with the ARTMS stylization on Youtube, TikTok, Instagram, X, and their official Discord server. Marketplaces including Barnes & Noble, Amazon, Apple Music, and streaming services such as Spotify all observe the ARTMS stylization. The only exception I was successful in finding was Tidal, but it's not clear to me if this is because there is another musical act by the same name but opposite stylization (it doesn't appear to be WP:NOTABLE or in possible contention as the WP:PTOPIC in the future, but this could help disambiguate down the line). Wikipedia is not beholden to fans on SNS or fan wikis, but they can help give some indication of the WP:COMMONNAME; users on reddit and X appear to overwhelmingly observe the ARTMS stylization, as do users on any number of fan wikis I found; [46], [47], [48]. 122141510 (talk) 23:42, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
• All-purpose Lightweight Individual Carrying Equipment → All-purpose lightweight individual carrying equipment – (Discuss) – These military equipment designators are often capped in official lists, but also often lowercase in sentences in both official and "independent" publications, so per MOS:CAPS and WP:NCCAPS we should default to lowercase, in titles and in article text (except Interceptor should be capped even mid-sentence, as that's the proper name of the armor system, not a descriptive term). I had moved them already, thinking they'd be uncontroversial in light of a bunch of previous military equipment designation RMs, but these were objected to and reverted, so let's discuss.

• Transgender hormone therapy → Hormone replacement therapy (transgender) – (Discuss) – It has become clear that the current article at Hormone replacement therapy for menopausal application does not qualify as a clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC after reviewing of page navigation flows for Hormone replacement therapy, Hormone therapy and Transgender hormone therapy. An outsizedly large amount of traffic that currently navigates straight from Hormone replacement therapy to Transgender hormone therapy, since HRT is also referred to for it (as outlined in the lead of the article), or to the current disambiguating article Hormone therapy, which combined account for 30% of the navigation from the current HRT article. So I propose that Hormone replacement therapy doesn't have a clear primary topic and as such we should rename the two articles to both use "Hormone replacement therapy" (or HRT in short) as their WP:COMMONNAME with the specific application in parenthesis. And then turn the current "Hormone replacement therapy" into a simple disambiguation page, or redirect it to Hormone therapy (which kind of already acts as a disambiguation page, as also shown from the traffic of the hat note).

• Lady Henry Somerset → Lady Isabella Somerset – (Discuss) – As mentioned in the article, this person "won the court case in 1878 and resumed the style of Lady Isabella Somerset", and after 1878 she used "Lady Isabella Somerset" as her official style. Because of this name change, the article title of this person in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography is "Somerset [née Somers-Cocks], Lady Isabella Caroline [Lady Henry Somerset]", and the ODNB calls her "Lady Isabella" in the article. The British Museum also registers her as "Lady Isabella Somerset". There is also an academic article which calls her "Lady Isabella Somerset". According to Wikipedia:Article_titles#Name_changes, "When this [a change of name] occurs, we give extra weight to independent, reliable, English-language sources ("reliable sources" for short) written after the name change". Since this person is called "Lady Isabella Somerset" in recent reliable sources, the name of the article should be "Lady Isabella Somerset". The move was already proposed in 2017, but it was not performed. saebou (talk) 08:04, 14 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. BilledMammal (talk) 21:44, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
• Robbie Moore (MP) → Robbie Moore (politician) – (Discuss) – This seems to be the standard disambiguator. GnocchiFan (talk) 12:59, 7 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. NightWolf1223 <Howl at me•My hunts> 14:35, 14 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Frost (talk) 11:33, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
• House demolition → House demolition (military) – (Discuss) – The primary topic for demolishing houses would be demolition. The military use of house demolition is not the obvious primary topic and should be disambiguated. I would also not be opposed to (militiary tactic), but it doesn't seem like other articles use it. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 11:16, 13 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. BilledMammal (talk) 05:28, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
• Voluntary assisted dying in Western Australia → ? – (Discuss) – This page is functionally a page about the specific law: Voluntary Assisted Dying Act 2019. The other pages in this area which are about specific laws, they are named after the specific law: *Rights of the Terminally Ill Act 1995 - there is no Voluntary assisted dying in the Northern Territory *Voluntary Assisted Dying Act 2017 - there is no Voluntary assisted dying in Victoria For the purposes of uniformity, this page should be renamed Voluntary Assisted Dying Act 2019 A history/background section is perfectly reasonable to have in a page about a specific law - that is the case for Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Act 2006, Aliens Deportation Act 1948, Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2021.

• Arab citizens of Israel → Palestinian and Arab citizens of Israel – (Discuss) – Per the smart suggestion from Keizers in the discussion above, this middle ground should address the concerns of both sides. Many editors have put a lot of time into this debate over many years, so we would ask you not to vote until you have reviewed the following discussions: * Talk:Arab citizens of Israel/Archive 8#Requested move 27 October 2021 * Talk:Palestinian citizens of Israel#Requested move 26 November 2021 * Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Palestinian citizens of Israel (6 March 2024, proposed by Keizers) * Talk:Arab citizens of Israel#Requested move 21 March 2024 Onceinawhile (talk) 14:28, 16 April 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. NightWolf1223 <Howl at me•My hunts> 20:25, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
• Saddle tramp → Saddle tramp (disambiguation) – (Discuss) – Created main space page for Saddle tramp. Name previously redirected to Saddle tramp (disambiguation) page. The title Saddle tramp should direct to this page, not the disambiguation page. There is a header link at the top of this page.

  • Saddle tramp (person) → Saddle tramp
• Tonlé Sap → Tonlé Sap Lake – (Discuss) – The original name before renamed after the discussion Talk:Tonlé_Sap#Rename above, due to possible confusion with the river that connect the lake and Mekong. The name "Tonlé Sap Lake" is NOT redundant at all. In that discussion user Markalexander100 stated that "Khmer and English terms aren't quite equivalent. In Khmer, as far as I can tell, there is one name- Tonle Sap- which refers to the lake and river together, while in English we differentiate them." This is not quite right because the official name of the lake in Khmer is "បឹង​ទន្លេសាប" (Boeng Tonle Sap), where បឹង/boeng means lake. So clearly they still have the word "lake" in the name, to differentiate it from the river. ទន្លេ/Tonle means river and that's its only meaning, not "Tonlé already means lake (or a very large, wide river)" as stated by user Dara above. For example, Mekong is "Tonlé Mekong", Bassac River is "Tonlé Bassac", Kong River is "Tonlé Kong". There's no known translation as Tonlé to "lake". Another similarly named geographic feature is the Boeng Tonle Chhmar (a smaller lake next to the Tonle Sap Lake). So to sum up, if we say "Tonle Sap" (without adding "Boeng") to the Khmer-speaking people, theoretically we are referring to the river (according to the meaning of the words). But then since the lake is too well-known, the term "Tonle Sap" will become ambiguous. However, as a matter of fact, they should be able to tell which one you are referring to, based on the context of the conversation. My suggestion is to rename this article to Tonlé Sap Lake, and have a separate article about the river. Two options for this separate article's name is: #Tonlé Sap (as per its literal meaning in Khmer) or, #Tonlé Sap (river) and Tonlé Sap becomes the disambiguation page. The reason for having a separate article for the river is simply because not everything about the river can be merged into the lake's article. For example, Phnom Penh, the state's capital, is located at the mouth of the river and there's probably something about the river related to Phnom Penh's urban planning that's worth writing about. And merging these into the lake's article would be inappropriate. ទន្លេតូច (talk) 23:27, 10 July 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. BilledMammal (talk) 22:29, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

• 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel → 7 October Hamas-led attack on Israel – (Discuss) – I believe that enough time has passed since the last RM (which proposed the simpler "7 October attacks" name and closed with consensus to retain the current title) to re-propose a title change for this article. I believe that "7 October Hamas-led attack on Israel" is the WP:COMMONNAME for this event, as seen in sources such as: * Al Jazeera: "... counter the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel, which saw ..." * Bloomberg: "... trapped in Gaza since the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel, which prompted ..." * CBC: "... around the world since the Hamas-led attacks on Israel of Oct. 7 but are now ..." * CNN: "... from the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel being held ..." * Euracitiv: "... triggered by the 7 October Hamas-led attack on Israel in which ..." * France24: "Before the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel that triggered ..." * ISW: "... spokesperson claimed that the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel was retaliation ..." * Middle East Eye: "Following the 7 October Hamas-led attack on Israel and subsequent ..." * NPR: "... Palestinian armed groups since the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel that set off the war ..." * NYTimes: "... including some who participated in the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel, and that ..." * Reuters: "... were involved in the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel that precipitated ..." * Times of Israel: "... during and after the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel." * The Conversation: "... participated in the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel, which resulted ... " * WaPo: "Since the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel, restrictions have ..." Many sources simply say "7 October" or "October 7 attacks" instead of spelling out the full name, but I believe that while "7 October attacks" could be a more COMMON name, I think that it fails WP:AT#Precision in favor of "7 October Hamas-led attack on Israel."

• Template:TSGN and SE Stations → Template:Railway stations served by Govia Thameslink Railway – (Discuss) – While a move is required to remove the unnecessary caps in "Stations", the move will also make the naming convention of this template consistent with other TOC station templates, as indicated by the consensus reached at the RM at Template talk:Railway stations served by c2c. The suggested title stems from the fact that Thameslink, Southern, and Great Northern are all a part of Govia Thameslink. At the same time, I'd like to request the Southeastern content be split into a new template called Template:Railway stations served by Southeastern for the same reasons.

Possibly incomplete requests

See "Request all associated moves explicitly"

• Talk:Johnny Olszewski (politician) – Johnny Olszewski (politician) is requested for move to Johnny Olszewski, which has non-redirecting content and is not requested for move

• Talk:Bengawan Solo – Bengawan Solo is requested for move to Bengawan Solo (disambiguation), which could make the disambiguation malplaced. Has a primary redirect been specified?
