Requested moves is a process for requesting the retitling (moving) of an article, template, or project page on Wikipedia. For retitling files, categories and other items, see When not to use this page.
Please read the article titling policy and the guideline regarding primary topics before moving a page or requesting a page move.
Any autoconfirmed user can use the Move function to perform most moves (see Help:How to move a page). If you have no reason to expect a dispute concerning a move, be bold and move the page. However, it may not always be possible or desirable to do this:
- Technical reasons may prevent a move; for example, a page may already exist at the target title and require deletion, or the page may be protected from moves. See: § Requesting technical moves.
- Requests to revert recent, undiscussed, controversial moves may be made at WP:RM/TR. If the new name has not become the stable title, the undiscussed move will be reverted. If the new name has become the stable title, a requested move will be needed to determine the article's proper location.
- A title may be disputed, and discussion may be necessary to reach consensus: see § Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves. The requested moves process is not mandatory, and sometimes an informal discussion at the article's talk page can help reach consensus.
- Unregistered and new (not yet autoconfirmed) users are unable to move pages.
Requests are generally processed after seven days. If consensus to move the page is reached at or after this time, a reviewer will carry out the request. If there is a consensus not to move the page, the request will be closed as "not moved". When consensus remains unclear, the request may be relisted to allow more time for consensus to develop, or the discussion may be closed as "no consensus". See Wikipedia:Requested moves/Closing instructions for more details on the process.
Wikipedia:Move review can be used to contest the outcome of a move request as long as all steps are followed. If a discussion on the closer's talk page does not resolve an issue, then a move review will evaluate the close of the move discussion to determine whether or not the contested close was reasonable and consistent with the spirit and intent of common practice, policies, and guidelines.
When not to use this page
Separate processes exist for moving certain types of pages, and for changes other than page moves:
- Making an uncontroversial move – if you can, be bold and do it yourself! If you can't, see § Requesting technical moves.
- Renaming a category – propose the move at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion.
- Renaming a stub template – propose the move at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion.
- Renaming an image or other file – see Wikipedia:Moving a page § Moving a file page.
- Moves from draft namespace or user space to article space – Unconfirmed users: add
{{subst:submit}}
to the top of the article. See Wikipedia:Articles for creation. Confirmed users: Move the page yourself. - Merging two articles – make a request at Wikipedia:Proposed mergers, or be bold and do it yourself.
- Splitting an article – make a request at Wikipedia:Proposed article splits, or be bold and do it yourself.
- Requesting that page histories be merged – list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge.
- Contesting a move request close – use the Wikipedia:Move review process.
Undiscussed moves
Autoconfirmed editors may move a page without discussion if all of the following apply:
- No article exists at the new target title;
- There has been no previous discussion about the title of the page that expressed any objection to a new title; and
- It seems unlikely that anyone would reasonably disagree with the move.
If you disagree with a prior bold move, and the new title has not been in place for a long time, you may revert the move yourself. If you cannot revert the move for technical reasons, then you may request a technical move.
Move wars are disruptive, so if you make a bold move and it is reverted, do not make the move again. Instead, follow the procedures laid out in § Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves.
Uncontroversial requests
Only list proposals here that are clearly uncontroversial but require administrator help to complete (for example, spelling and capitalization fixes). Do not list a proposed page move in this section if there is any reasonable possibility that it could be opposed by anyone. Please list new requests at the bottom of the list in this section and use {{subst:RMassist|Old page name|Requested name|Reason for move}} rather than copying previous entries. The template will automatically include your signature. No edits to the article's talk page are required. If you object to a proposal listed here, please relist it in the #Incomplete and contested proposals section below.
Incomplete and contested proposals
With the exception of a brief description of the problem or objection to the move proposal, please do not discuss move proposals here. If you support an incomplete or contested move proposal, please consider following the instructions above to complete the proposal, and move it to the "Other proposals" section below under the current date. Proposals that remain incomplete after seven days will be removed.
Other proposals
![]() | Please use the correct template; see the instructions above. Do not attempt to copy and paste formatting from another listing. |
- Pinghua Chinese → Pinghua: Official name is Pinghua or Guangxi Pinghua, not Pinghua Chinese. --Anativecantonesespeaker (talk) 10:13, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
- The jury's still out on whether that is the official name. JulieSpaulding (talk) 13:09, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
- TD Garden → TD Banknorth Garden: (Discuss) — It is going to be changed to TD Garden in July, but it's still Banknorth Garden so it should be named that until July. RandySavageFTW (talk) 14:00, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
- National Aeronautic Laboratory → National Aerospace Laboratory of Japan —(Discuss)— Current page name is incorrect and the page is orphaned. It need to be moved to the official name. --Fukumoto (talk) 14:55, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
- 1900–1909 → 1900s (decade) —(Discuss)— As per the immediately below entry and discussion at Wikipedia_talk:Naming_conventions_(numbers_and_dates)#First_decade_of_each_century_revival --— `CRAZY`(lN)`SANE` 07:13, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
- Linked to discussion below (which seems to be treating both together anyway). Any more of these should have a separate discussion set up, probably on Talk:1800-1809.
- 2000–2009 → 2000s (decade) —(Discuss)— As per discussion here and here, a consensus has been reached to move this page, with no real opposition to the request. Due to the fact that 2000s (decade) was recently vandalized by a sockpuppet, the move requires administrative privileges. Thanks.— `CRAZY`(lN)`SANE` 06:22, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
- David M. Walker (former U.S. Comptroller General) → David M. Walker (U.S. Comptroller General) —(Discuss)— An absurd and unnecessary naming convention. For example, the other David M. Walker, David M. Walker (astronaut), isn't found at David M. Walker (former astronaut). — Twas Now ( talk • contribs • e-mail ) 05:22, 23 May 2009 (UTC) --— Twas Now ( talk • contribs • e-mail ) 05:22, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
- Amisha Patel → Ameesha Patel —(Discuss)— She has changed the spelling of her name for more than 2 years now. Her name was spelt as Ameesha starting from some movies in 2006 and now it is no longer spelt Amisha, and in many magazine interviews done in the past few years she confirmed the change. --Aryan1992 (talk) 21:37, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
- The Beaches → The Beach (Toronto) —(Discuss)— The City of Toronto government is now installing signs as an indication of official designation. See here --Alaney2k (talk) 18:15, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
- Crazy Rhythm (song) → Crazy Rhythm —(Discuss)— The only page with this title. The only other article listed on the current disambiguation page is Crazy Rhythms. --Jafeluv (talk) 11:34, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
- Ace Hotels → Ace Hotel —(Discuss)— Ace Hotel is the proper name of this company. There are NOT multiple "Ace Hotels". There are multiple Ace Hotel locations, but these are never referred to as different "Ace Hotels". There are many Mariott hotel locations but their page is not titled "Mariotts". It is confusing because the common noun "Hotel" is in our name, but "Ace" is not its adjective. I work for this company and can confirm that "Ace Hotels" is improper usage. --Notbot (talk) 01:05, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
- Hirschel Levin → Hart Lyon —(Discuss)— The name "Hart Lyon" was much more commonly used than "Hirschel Levin" --Kyuko (talk) 00:57, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
- Duke Georg Borwin of Mecklenburg → Borwin, Duke of Mecklenburg —(Discuss)— Only uses the name "Borwin" and title is put after name to represent head of family for every other head of a German princely house and is how they are listed in reference works. - dwc lr (talk) 23:04, 21 May 2009 (UTC) --dwc lr (talk) 23:04, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- Astana Team → Astana (cycling team) —(Discuss)— I'm not a big fan of parenthetical qualifiers when they can reasonably be avoided, but I can find no indication that the word "Team" is in fact part of this team's name (same thing happened a while back with the article that used to be called Team Garmin-Slipstream). The UCI-registered name for the team going back through 2007 is simply "Astana" (even the old ONCE team that was briefly called Astana was just called "Astana" and not "Astana Team" by the UCI). The team's logo and official website say "Astana cycling team" but I believe this actually backs me up - the Toronto Blue Jays baseball club, for example, is known formally as exactly that. With the use of {{ct}} becoming more common, and with it gradually replacing regular links in old pages (many of which, by the way, were Astana), not a whole lot of effort needs to go into bypassing the new redirect. Astana Team would still be a perfectly valid redirect, actually, as a likely search term. --Nosleep break my slumber 21:19, 21 May 2009 (UTC) Nosleep break my slumber 21:19, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- Meals on wheels association of america → Meals on Wheels Association of America —(Discuss)— Page title spelling, but do see talk page of page in question first --Passportguy (talk) 21:09, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- Baby Point → Lambton Baby Point —(Discuss)— The article is about the official neighbourhood as defined by the City of Toronto, not just the enclave/street known as Baby Point --Alaney2k (talk) 20:19, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- Interphalangeal articulations of hand → Interphalangeal articulations of the hand, Interphalangeal articulations of foot → Interphalangeal articulations of the foot —(Discuss)— Unless the old names are idiomatic. --Quuxplusone (talk) 17:14, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- Matthew Sean Mason → Matt Mason (cricketer) — (Discuss) — Move over a redirect to a disamb page. Not known as "Matthew Sean", the reference and Cricinfo pages use Matt, not Matthew and as he's Australian, but mainly notable in England, using a country qualifier could be confusing. The Welsh cricketer only just qualifies on notability ground (3 games vs over 160), so a hatnote to him is appropriate. — The-Pope (talk) 13:08, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- St. Patrick's Hospital - Change to St Patrick's University Hospital 18:47, 20 May 2009 User:62.77.180.162 — (Discuss) —
- The official website says its "St. Patrick's Hospital", why should the article name be different? TJ Spyke 22:05, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
- Excavations of Al-Aqsa Mosque → Excavations at the Temple Mount —(Discuss)— This includes all excavations at the site, not just under the Al Aqsa Mosque --Chesdovi (talk) 22:52, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
- Saint-Émile, Quebec City → Saint-Émile — (Discuss) — Only Saint-Émile page. RandySavageFTW (talk) 17:48, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
- Raymond Ashby → Ray Ashby —(Discuss)— Sources naming him as 'Ray' = 4/4; as 'Raymond' = 0/4. The editor who created this article does this same thing with almost all that he creates. I've brought the naming convention guideline to his attention but he ignores it, thinking he knows best. While it is good that he's busily creating all these articles, I've been following him around cleaning up after him for a while now and it's becoming tiresome. Perhaps if an admin could have a word? --Jeff79 (talk) 11:35, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
- Rhondda Cynon Taff → Rhondda Cynon Taf —(Discuss) — Sources with 'Taf' = thousands, sources with 'Taff' = few, and dwindling. Background — Rhondda Cynon Taff was, at one time, the English name of a County in Wales, while the Welsh name was Rhondda Cynon Tâf. Six years ago, a minor council rebrand saw the two named 'merged'. Since that time, all Council literature, media, street furniture, documentation and peripheral items have used the Rhondda Cynon Taf name exclusively.
All Government documentation reflects this, although only Wikipedia still seems to be promoting the extinct name.
There is no linguistic problem associated with the change in name, as both Taff and Taf are pronounced in exactly the same way.
A definitive decision is urgently needed.--Monkeynuts2008 (talk) 13:06, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
- Intermodal freight shipping container → Intermodal container —(Discuss)— Correct name per talk page --Rlsheehan (talk) 22:05, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
- Storm kettle → Kelly Kettle —(Discuss)— The common or 'generic' name for these items per conclusive Google Test is 'Kelly Kettle'. Suggest renaming article. The term 'storm kettle' only dates back about 10yrs whereas 'Kelly Kettle' has been commonly used for decades.----Knockmoregaa (talk) 21:30, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
- Mini (BMW) → MINI (BMW) —(Discuss)— Bayerische Motoren Werke Aktiengesellschaft sell a Motorcar called the MINI the company has the brand in all Cap's Lock to show the difference between the Mini --Thomas Gilling 17:50, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
- Township Number 1, Harper County, Kansas → Township 1, Harper County, Kansas —(Discuss)— To be consistent with Geographic Standards and Criteria Branch naming standards (eliminating redundant "No." text). See Geographic Change Notes for Kansas. ----Polaron | Talk 04:04, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
- Township Number 2, Harper County, Kansas → Township 2, Harper County, Kansas
- Township Number 3, Harper County, Kansas → Township 3, Harper County, Kansas
- Township Number 4, Harper County, Kansas → Township 4, Harper County, Kansas
- Township Number 5, Harper County, Kansas → Township 5, Harper County, Kansas
- Township Number 6, Harper County, Kansas → Township 6, Harper County, Kansas
- Consent (criminal) → Consent (law) —(Discuss)— Per discussion here. "Xxxx (criminal)" is confusing because there are pages like Larry Davis (criminal). --Jafeluv (talk) 21:46, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- Element (criminal) → Element (law) —(Discuss)— Per discussion here. "Xxxx (criminal)" is confusing because there are pages like Larry Davis (criminal). --Jafeluv (talk) 21:46, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- Fence (criminal) → Fence (law) —(Discuss)— Per discussion here. "Xxxx (criminal)" is confusing because there are pages like Larry Davis (criminal). --Jafeluv (talk) 21:46, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- Intention (criminal) → Intention (law) —(Discuss)— Per discussion here. "Xxxx (criminal)" is confusing because there are pages like Larry Davis (criminal). --Jafeluv (talk) 21:46, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- Omission (criminal) → Omission (law) —(Discuss)— Per discussion here. "Xxxx (criminal)" is confusing because there are pages like Larry Davis (criminal). --Jafeluv (talk) 21:46, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- Electromagnetic therapy (alternative medicine) → Electromagnetic therapy —(Discuss)— Clearly a lack of concensus to make the move. --CyclePat (talk) 03:48, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- Maple Ridge, British Columbia → Maple Ridge —(Discuss)— This article title will be move to the name Maple Ridge to match to match the Canadian city related titles. --Steam5 (talk) 01:44, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- Maple Ridge (disambiguation) → Maple Ridge —(Discuss)— There are many different locations that use this name and none are more notable than any other, so Maple Ridge should be the disambiguation --TJ Spyke 23:20, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- Secretary of State for the Home Department → Home Secretary —(Discuss)— Home Secretary is much more commonly used, this was suggested before in 2005 --YeshuaDavid (talk) 17:29, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- Dudd Dudley → Dud Dudley —(Discuss)— Appears to be the normal usage of our sources and others --Septentrionalis PMAnderson 16:23, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
- Timeline of United States inventions → Timeline of inventions made by citizens of the United States —(Discuss)— Because the US didn't invent any of these things; it was citizens of the US that made them. --Ross Rhodes (T C) Sign! 16:21, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
- The War Prayer (story) → The War Prayer —(Discuss)— Primary topic. See talk page for more detailed reasoning. --Jafeluv (talk) 13:48, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
- Pavle, Patriarch of Serbia → Patriarch Pavle of Serbia —(Discuss)— All other patriarch are named in this style --Vanjagenije (talk) 11:31, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
- 2000–2009 → 2000s (decade) —(Discuss)— Current article name is inconsistent with all if not most templates that use "2000s" (i.e. Category:2000s music groups) and the general popular consensus that the decade be called "2000s". The actual term "2000–2009" is not notable and is used nowhere outside Wikipedia. A similar move to this has been requested before, but this was for a move back to "2000s", not "2000s (decade)", which is my request. I feel the latter gives enough disambiguation to address the concerns of some users of moving the article simply to "2000s". — `CRAZY`(lN)`SANE` 06:34, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
- George Town, Penang → Georgetown, Penang — (Discuss) — Is it Georgetown or George Town? (Penang is in Malaya.) Anthony Appleyard (talk) 04:50, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
- Loomis, Washington → Loomis, Washington (Pacific County) —(Discuss)— Conflicts with another place in Okanogan County. The place in Pacific County is a ghost town, so should get the adorned title. --Brianhe (talk) 00:18, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
- Breast fetishism → Sexual interest in breasts (Discuss) It's not a sexual fetish.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Voortle (talk • contribs) 21:38, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- There seems to be a clear consensus on the talk page (full disclosure: including my own comment) that the article should stay at its existing title. -- The Anome (talk) 11:03, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- Damon Allen → Damon Allen (American football) — (Discuss) — There are two hatlinks at the top of this page, so I think it would be much better to have Damon Allen be a disambiguation page. — 70.20.92.74 (talk) 18:42, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- Not uncontroversial. This Damon Allen is primary usage as a far more likely search term (the contender being Damon Allen (figure skater)). Jafeluv (talk) 20:11, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- Suggestion: move to Damon Allen (footballer) (suffix is "footballer" instead) AND make Damon Allen a protected redirect to the footballer: this keeps the direct link going to primary usage, but it will also allow easy maintenance of Special:WhatLinksHere/Damon Allen by being able to disambiguate and empty its incoming links. (If you keep an article at Damon Allen then you can never automatically sort out links in error from the sea of correct links because you can't empty it.) That's how I've seen it done at many articles, isn't that already documented somewhere? 62.147.39.212 (talk) 11:43, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- SGI Indigo² and Challenge M → SGI Indigo2 — (Discuss) — The present name is too long and contains a character not found on keyboards. — Rilak (talk) 10:49, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- Plenty of article titles have characters not on a standard keyboard; also, why is the Challenge M portion being dropped? This is not uncontroversial and should be discussed first. Parsecboy (talk) 15:46, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- The Best of the Monkees → The Best of The Monkees — (Discuss) — caps — —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 06:09, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- Disagree. According to the Monkees article, it's the Monkees, not The Monkees. Jafeluv (talk) 09:40, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- Valley East, Ontario → Valley East — (Discuss) — Only Valley East article. RandySavageFTW (talk) 19:11, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- Rayside-Balfour, Ontario → Rayside-Balfour — (Discuss) — Only Rayside-Balfour article. RandySavageFTW (talk) 19:11, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- Nickel Centre, Ontario → Nickel Centre — (Discuss) — Only Nickel Centre article. RandySavageFTW (talk) 19:11, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- Onaping Falls, Ontario → Onaping Falls — (Discuss) — Only Onaping Falls article. RandySavageFTW (talk) 19:11, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- Not uncontroversial: current naming appears to meet WP:MOS standards.--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 20:53, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- Where's the controversy? WP:NC for Canadian places, as expanded upon at WP:CANSTYLE, is that they go undisambiguated unless evidence of actual ambiguity — not theoretical "but this sounds like it could be a non-unique name, but actual "here is a specific other topic that actually has the same name" — can be provided. The NC for Canada is not the same as the NC for the United States; it's the same as the NC in place for every single country in the world that isn't the United States. Kindly provide actual evidence of an actual controversy if you're going to claim that there is one. Bearcat (talk) 17:20, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

- Arabic numerals → Hindu-Arabic numerals — (Discuss) — The article "Arabic numerals" needs to be moved to "Hindu-Arabic numerals". But "Hindu-Arabic numerals" is redirecting to "Arabic numerals" presently. Rapparee71 (talk) 12:11, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- This topic has been discussed many times before in Talk:Arabic numerals. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:05, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
- This article still needs to be moved. According to Wikipedia policies and the consensus of the academic community, the article should in fact be called "Hindu-Arabic numerals". Rapparee71 (talk) 07:04, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- List of ceramics museums → Ceramics museum — (Discuss) — Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:18, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- Transferred from my user talk page "Hi! Any chance of reverting this move, which was done "perhaps somewhat boldly" when opposition to it had already been registered on the talk page. I can't now revert it. Thanks, Johnbod (talk) 23:25, 15 May 2009 (UTC)". Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:18, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

- Swap Array data structure and Array data type —(Discuss)— Data types are primitive (e.g. Machine data types), whereas data structures are higher-level and more abstract; therefore, the present "data type" article, which describes the more abstract concept, is misnamed. The opposite is true for the sister article. This is all a result of the very recent split of Array. I raised the same issue on the talkpage prior to the split's execution, but there was insufficient input and thus no clear consensus as to the right nomenclature. --Cybercobra (talk) 05:43, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- KM3Net → KM3NeT —(Discuss)— See Talk:KM3NeT#Requested Move 3 for details (in a nutshell, KM3NeT is used by primary sources, Wikipedia use is also predominantly KM3NeT in all templates, links, etc...) --Headbomb {ταλκκοντριβς – WP Physics} 05:00, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
- Comment: per WP:MOSTM, Wikipedia doesn't give special treatment to trademarks, no matter what "primary sources" (i.e. trademark owners) demand (e.g. Time not TIME), and will stay close to regular English (i.e. "Net" not "NeT"). 62.147.39.212 (talk) 11:43, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
- So Ibm and not IBM? (My point is this is an acronym, and the dominant use is KM3NeT. Other variants include Km3net, KM3NET, KM3Net..., but the all-across wikipedia use is KM3NeT, as well as in most scientific publications). Headbomb {ταλκκοντριβς – WP Physics} 03:26, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
- Also, "NeT" does not stand for network, it stands for Neutrino Telescope. Headbomb {ταλκκοντριβς – WP Physics} 04:05, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
- Tea Party protests → Tax Day Tea Party —(Discuss)— The current article seems to cover only the Tax Day Tea Party protests, but with brief statements on the history of Tea Party protests and how they started. This is OK for the article, however, it is encyclopedic to have an article about one event (April 15 Tax Day protests) that suggests it covers all Tea Party protests. The current article also does not cover the different organizations that started the February 27 Chicago Tea Party protests, but instead, the article assumes the same organizations that started a previous event also started the April 15 Tax Day event. This is not the case. Different organizations started these two different Tea Party events. So it not correct to claim the generic article name "Tea Party protests," when in truth the article is only covering the Tax Day Tea Party protests. The allegations between both events are different, and the organizations that guided the events are different, and the outcomes of each event are different; thus, this calls for the generic name "Tea Party protests" to be moved to a clearer name of "Tax Day Tea Party." --Tycoon24 (talk) 01:49, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

- Please see discussion/survey at Talk:Bitch#Requested move
- Military history of the peoples of the British Isles → Military history of the peoples of Britain —(Discuss)— The article was originally renamed without consensus late last year, and in its current form is incorrect as the article is clearly written as a military history of Britain or the United Kingdom. The term British Isles is contentious and in this context it is incorrect to imply that any military actions were carried out on behalf of the British Isles --HighKing (talk) 12:48, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
- Vicki Lynne Cole → Bring Us Together —(Discuss)— She is only notable for her role in introducing this slogan in the 1968 Nixon campaign. Personal info is included in the article, which although not negative is a distraction from the story. --Steve Dufour (talk) 16:17, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
- Cornhole → Cornhole (disambiguation) —(Discuss)— the disambiguation page should be labelled as such, letting the game take the foreground. --Gyro Copter (talk) 15:03, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
- Cornhole (game) → Cornhole —(Discuss)— Cornhole the game should be the default sense of cornhole --Gyro Copter (talk) 15:03, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
- İzmir → Izmir —(Discuss)— The new name is the common English spelling for the city. SeeTalk:İzmir#Why Turkish name? --Mhockey (talk) 11:48, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
- Helldorado Days → Helldorado Days (Las Vegas) —(Discuss)— Helldorado is a nickname for Tombstone, AZ where this festival is better known (Google it!). If anything, the Tombstone festival should be the primary direct for Helldorado Days, but I'm willing to live with two pages, one with each place --SBHarris 00:09, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
