Equity Insurance Group → ERS – Equity Insurance Group has rebranded to ERS.http://www.ers.com/Pages/ERS-History-Page.aspx Liz McMahon (talk) 14:32, 19 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Strong oppose you cannot delete a page with a move request. Merging the disambiguation page at ERS to a hatnote for this article is highly inappropriate, as it would be extremely large. Further, I see no WP:PRIMARYTOPIC evidence, which you would need to show when you want to usurp a current usage with another one. -- 65.94.40.137 (talk) 09:06, 20 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
comment hasn't it always been Equity Red Star ? according to the page you used, it seems to be. -- 65.94.40.137 (talk) 09:09, 20 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 26 May 2021[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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

It was proposed in this section that multiple pages be renamed and moved.

result:
Moved. See consensus below to rename to "ERS" with a qualifier, so the first proposal will be moved to ERS (insurance company), with the dab page remaining at the base name. Kudos to all editors for your input, and Happy, Healthy Publishing! (nac by page mover) P.I. Ellsworth ed. ^put'r there 02:47, 3 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Equity Insurance Group → ERS
ERS → ERS (disambiguation)

– Business has been rebranded to ERS since 2015, this title is out of date and misleading. ERS 218 (talk) 10:57, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). — Amakuru (talk) 13:36, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note: ERS is a page with significant content and so is ineligible as a target "new" title unless it is also a part of this proposal. This request has been altered to reflect that fact. P.I. Ellsworth ed. ^put'r there 11:26, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - @ERS 218: ERS is currently a disambiguation page, so this will need a different title if we are to move it, as I doubt it's the primary topic. — Amakuru (talk) 13:36, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Move to ERS (insurance). Certainly not the primary topic. As an aside, OP, your user name leads me to suspect a conflict of interest, please read WP:COI and WP:DISCLOSE. 162 etc. (talk) 19:51, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Support this alternative.--Ortizesp (talk) 03:53, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Strong oppose as requested; The target is a disambiguation page, and many prominent uses of ERS are listed. Further merging a large disambiguation page into a hatnote is also a very bad idea --- 67.70.27.180 (talk) 06:01, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Suggest ERS (insurance company) instead -- 67.70.27.180 (talk) 06:05, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Electoral Reform Society gets more views (454) than Equity Insurance Group (147)[[1]] so no primary topic also oppose above per WP:NCA "One general exception to this rule deals with our strong preference for natural disambiguation" "American Broadcasting Company rather than ABC (American TV network)". Crouch, Swale (talk) 11:50, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support move to a disambiguated title such as ERS (insurance company). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:59, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support ERS (insurance company), a la Connect (insurance company). Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 07:28, 2 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
