- (Discuss) – ESpeakNG → ESpeak – Several independent sources seem to establish the notability of eSpeak, but the only links referencing eSpeakNG seem to be from its developers. Languorrises (talk) 22:39, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Lord Mayor of Stoke-on-Trent → List of lord mayors of Stoke-on-Trent – Consistency with List of lord mayors of London. These are primarily lists, and they are the only "Lord Mayor of X" articles in Category:Lists of mayors of places in England. —BarrelProof (talk) 22:32, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Naqsh-e Rustam → Naqsh-e Rostam – This is the more correct transliteration, and it's used in the German Wikipedia [1], the French Wikipedia [2], the Spanish Wikipedia [3] etc. It's also used by academic scholars such as Daryaee [4] Curtis and Stewart [5] Iranica [6] etc. --HistoryofIran (talk) 21:08, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Wish You Were Here (Pink Floyd album) → Wish You Were Here – Per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, a high pageviews difference. The views are honest as every article is disambiguated, unlike the subjects of the current discussion at Talk:Let It Be which enticed me to open a discussion here and come to a consensus, as moving this to primary has never been requested before. Per WP:NOTADICTIONARY the simple expression "wish you were here" is not factored into this (see also Meddle, which is primary despite being a common word). The title song is the second highest in pageviews, so I would additionally propose it being included in the hatnote, should this page be moved. Lazz_R 19:59, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Fulford (disambiguation) → Fulford – Given that we now have an article at Fulford, Staffordshire I think we should re visit this discussion. Although the NY location may be the most likely (especially given the battle) it doesn't seem overwhelming [[7]][[8]]. The village of Fulford in Staffordshire has a population of 650 and the wider parish has 5931 (over double the NY one!) while the NY parish only has 2785 (no data is available for the village). The Staffordshire one is also clearly a distinct settlement while the NY one appears to be an outer suburb of York. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:07, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Naked Model by the Wicker Chair → Model by the Wicker Chair – Removing the word ‘Naked’ from the title of the article would result in the new title matching the name for the painting as it appears both on page 197 of the listed Reference ‘Munch and Expressionism’, as well as next to the photo of the painting on the website of its home museum (see External links) Observer1632 (talk) 18:31, 14 May 2019 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – 2020 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series → 2020 NASCAR Cup Series – NASCAR has already said that Monster won’t be re-upping for 2020 and that it will likely move to a non-sponsored tier of series names Willsome429 (say hey or see my edits!) 16:01, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Palestinian Christians → Christianity in Palestine – Per WP:CONSISTENCY with formula in most equivalent articles: Islam in Palestine, Ahmadiyya in Palestine, Catholic Church in Palestine, etc. One might argue that there is a need for "Palestinian Christians", but until someone create these two different articles, if there is but one, the scope should be prioritised as Christianity in Palestine, isn't it? PPEMES (talk) 15:06, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Regina Coeli → Regina Caeli – This is the spelling that (apart from being correct Latin) is used in all recent official liturgical texts of the Catholic Church, as seen, for instance, in the image reproduced in the article. Past objections to this correction, based on out-of-date publications, are given above. The article by Hugh Henry in the 1911 Catholic Encyclopedia was cited for "Coeli", but the far more recent New Catholic Encyclopedia has "Caeli", and even the old Catholic Encyclopedia also had an article by the better known scholar Herbert Thurston using the "ae" spelling. The Raccolta (first published in 1807) was also cited above in support of "Coeli", but the edition cited was of an unspecified pre-1923 date. Wikisource only gives nineteenth-century editions of the Raccolta, the last edition of which (and we don't know which spelling it used) was in 1950. The Raccolta has since been replaced by the Enchiridion Indulgentiarum, which has "Regina caeli". The entire text of the fourth edition of this Enchiridion is on the Internet. The spelling "caeli" is not a recent fad: it is found in 15th-century Trent manuscripts. There is no doubt that "caelum" is the correct Latin word: see PHI Latin texts, where searching for "coelum" produces no results. The objection raised above that in medieval times (when the anthem was composed) "coelum" was the (only) spelling is quite unsubstantiated. Is it instead possible that the "coelum" spelling arose instead in post-medieval times, when Greek became better known in the West and the Latin word for "sky"/"heaven" was associated with the Greek word κοῖλος ("hollow")? "Regina caeli" is also the spelling used in today's scholarly works such as the Harvard Dictionary of Music and the American Institute of Musicology Bealtainemí (talk) 14:51, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Fred Brown (rugby league) → Fred Brown (rugby league, Wales) – We also have a Fred Brown (rugby league, Sydney), and a Fred Brown (rugby league, born 1920s). bd2412 T 13:33, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Qara Khitai → Western Liao – Considering the official name of this regime was "Great Liao", I believe it is more accurate to refer to it as "Western Liao". The term "Qara Khitai" was not used by the rulers to refer to their regime, but is instead a term of foreign origins. Furthermore, since the rulers and the regime itself were Sinicized, accepted Chinese traditions, adopted Chinese titles and claimed continuity from the previous Liao dynasty, among other things, using the term "Western Liao" to refer to this regime (as is the case for Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese and Japanese historians) is more accurate. This is not Sinocentrism, considering the official name of the regime was "Great Liao" and was located to the west of the original Liao dynasty which also used the official name "Great Liao". The name "Western Liao" can therefore better reflect the historical connection between the two regimes as well as their geographical location in relation to each other, as opposed to "Qara Khitai" which neither reflect the official name of the regime nor was it used by the rulers themselves.

- (Discuss) – New Conservative Party → New Conservative Party (Japan) – There have been multiple parties with the same or equivalent names, with none of them being WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. The current name should be a disamb page. Don Cuan (talk) 09:15, 14 May 2019 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Walter Jones (American football) → Walter Jones – The football player is the clear primary topic, he dominates the page views for the name Walter Jones. After doing some page views analysis, I discovered that he has about 90% of the page views for the name.

- (Discuss) – David Robinson (basketball) → David Robinson – The basketball player is the primary topic for “David Robinson”. He averages about 1,800 views per day. The drummer averages about 120 views per day. All of the other “David Robinsons” are on the order of 10 or less. Should the proposed move be successful, I think it would be a good idea to add a hatnote for the drummer, and then a disambiguation link for the rest of the people with the same name.

- (Discuss) – Fetal heartbeat bill → Heartbeat bill – Rename because the shorter two-word term is common, its sufficient for unambiguous naming, its easier to say, and its prominent in the literature.ApexUnderground (talk) 04:58, 14 May 2019 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Prince Lorenz of Belgium, Archduke of Austria-Este → Lorenz, Archduke of Austria-Este – Per WP:CONCISE and WP:CONSISTENCY (Robert, Archduke of Austria-Este, Margherita, Archduchess of Austria-Este). I also want to point out that these two are among the titled royals, and in such cases where the individual is an heir or head of a house we follow the format "Name, Title" (Charles, Prince of Wales, Jean-Christophe, Prince Napoléon, Catharina-Amalia, Princess of Orange, etc).

- (Discuss) – Mary Poppins (film) → Mary Poppins – I'd like to think the film is more notable than the book series. It has triple the number of views.[9] Unreal7 (talk) 22:23, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Strain energy release rate → Energy release rate – the energy release rate is defined as a rate of change of the potential energy, not the strain energy, so "strain energy release rate" is both generally incorrect and misleading. If anything, it should be "potential energy release rate", but it is best and more widely accepted to use "energy release rate." Mbuche1 (talk) 15:07, 6 May 2019 (UTC) --Relisting.

- (Discuss) – Linga, Vementry → Linga (near Vementry) – This should have been bundled with Talk:Linga, Bluemull Sound#Requested move 21 March 2019 but I only noticed I'd missed it when I was updating the links at List of islands called Linga. The same problem exists here in that Linga is only near Vementry, not part of it. I can't confirm that its in St Magnus Bay and it doesn't appear to be completely in Whaal Voe. Also there is a possibility of moving Uyea, Northmavine to a better title however I am happy with leaving that as is since as noted it appears to be tidally connected to Northmavine similar to Uyea, Northmavine, Oronsay, Colonsay and Bernera, Lismore. @Safrolic: who made the suggestions in the previous RM and @Paine Ellsworth: who closed it.

- (Discuss) – Carlos Sánchez Moreno → Carlos Sánchez (Columbian footballer) – Not WP:COMMONNAME. From the sources used in these articles, none of them are referred to by their full names (Moreno, García etc.). Anyone who searches for any one of these famous people (e.g. a West Ham fan) is unlikely to know what their full names are in the Spanish custom rule. Iggy (Swan) 20:22, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – The Automobile Association → ? – Per WP:COMMONNAME, "The Automobile Association" is both inaccurate and not commonly used to refer to the company. The company is officially named AA plc and trades as The AA. Keeping it named this is akin to RAC Limited being "Royal Automobile Club" or Sainsbury's being "J Sainsbury" (though the latter is not completely inaccurate, and outdated names are sometimes still used as titles such as Macintosh, a brand named "Mac" since 1998). However, there isn't one easy name that this article could be moved to. *AA plc is an option, as it is a natural disambiguator and official name akin to Apple Inc. *The AA would be making a case of WP:PRIMARYTOPIC as it currently redirects to AA, and I'm not sure what WP:THE has to say about the use of this grammatical article. *AA (company) or The AA (company), simple parenthetical disambiguation is an option. Or there is, of course, the current name that is inaccurate, but natural disambiguation. Lazz_R 18:52, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Let It Be → ? – Following consensus at, and *Option B - The song is the primary topic, primary swap. Move, and *Oppose - The album is the primary topic and things should be left as is.

- (Discuss) – 2001 Jaguars-Browns officiating controversy → Bottlegate – Similar to the move discussion for Fail Mary, the current title of this article is a descriptive name, not the WP:COMMONNAME of the subject. Bottlegate is the most common name for the subject of this article and thus should be it's name. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:46, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Amphiprioninae → Clownfish – Move per WP:COMMONNAME. According to this google trends page Clownfish gets almost 100 times more searches than the current title. The case is similar for google search results with clownfish yielding 14 100 000 results (admittedly a not insignificant amount being from the skype application) while amphiprioninae only giving 105 000 results.

- (Discuss) – Differential geometry of curves → Differentiable curve – The proposed title, which redirects already here, is a much simpler description of the expected content.

- (Discuss) – Gronkowski → Gronkowski (disambiguation) – Rob Gronkowski is far and away the primary topic of all of these pages.

- (Discuss) – John P. Wilson → John Wilson (Tánaiste) – ElectionsIreland.org refer to him as 'John Wilson'. The website of the school he worked in refers to him as 'John Wilson'. The Irish Times refers to him as 'John Wilson'. The GAA knew him him as 'Mr John Wilson'. The 'P' seems to have been included in the Wikipedia title to distinguish him from other John Wilsons. The usual style would be 'John Wilson (description)'. As there have been so many politicians, referring to him as one doesn't help. But, according to Tánaiste, only 25 people have risen to this rank and this man is the only 'John Wilson' to have done so. 2001:BB6:A36:8458:6DEA:79A0:C524:A25 (talk) 23:39, 5 May 2019 (UTC)--Relisting.

- (Discuss) – Fathers' rights movement → Fathers' rights – This page move will allow a broader overall scope, and create parity with the topic Mothers' rights and the other "rights by beneficiary" listed on {{Rights}}. The main focus of the article (#Main issues) describes several concepts related to father's rights, but discussion of the "movement" is quite vague and in most cases should be attributed to specific, named organizations - not to a broad "movement". To demonstrate the potential broader scope, note that Google Scholar shows 6000+ results for "father's rights", but only 980 for "father's rights movement". That's a lot of reliable sources to be leaving out, just because this title is limiting. A general cleanup is necessary, and this move will provide a better foundation for it. -- Netoholic @ 06:31, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – John Younger → John Younger (outlaw) – As previously questioned in 2012, above, there is no indication that John Younger had sufficient historical significance to force dab page adoption of the qualifier "(disambiguation)". Although he was a member of a famous outlaw family, his personal participation, such as it was, in the family's exploits does not warrant elevation to WP:PRIMARYTOPIC as long as there is at least one other same-named Wikipedia entry {John Younger (writer)}. The qualifier "(outlaw)" is based upon entries under Category:Outlaws of the American Old West. — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 05:11, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – John Carswell (disambiguation) → John Carswell – No indication that the 16th-century Scottish prelate holds such exalted place in history that his Anglicised name should be a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT to his Scottish name Séon Carsuel. Anyone who researches him and types "John Carswell", a very or relatively common name, should be linked directly to the base name disambiguation page. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 01:18, 6 May 2019 (UTC)--Relisted. – Ammarpad (talk) 04:42, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Jason Williams (basketball, born 1975) → Jason Williams – Yes I know that the name “Jason Williams” has many entries, but it seems that the basketball player born in 1975 is the primary topic. His article averages 1,349 views per day. The next most is the ice hockey player with only 55 views per day. Another person with the name averages 23, another with 17, and the rest are 5 or less. If you are opposed to renaming “Jason Williams (basketball, born 1975)” to “Jason Williams”, please voice your opinion on the possibility of alternatively renaming “Jason Williams (basketball, born 1975)” to “Jason Williams (basketball)”. The basketball player born in 1975 seems to have even more of a stronghold as the primary topic among basketball players with the same name. Mrbeastmodeallday (talk) 04:22, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Masculism → Masculinism – These two terms have somewhat different origins but have largely converged on meaning and there was a 2005 consensus to redirect.

Both of the target titles have non-trivial edit histories, so suggestions on how to handle that would be appreciated. -- Netoholic @ 03:47, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Portal:Popes → Portal:Holy See – Slightly expanding scope, so that for instance the scope of Template:Holy See, and Template:Papacy may be more logically included. As informally proposed above, perhaps Portal:Papacy could be a second alternative. But since there are no Holy See portal, and the scope of the Papacy is including in the scope of the Holy See, then perhaps Holy See would be a more suitable name at least until both exist?

- (Discuss) – Freaks → Freaks (1932 film) – WP:ASTONISH DAB from Freak and the various outher uses at Freak (disambiguation). Even though readers are used to seeing things at the plural and the 1932 film does get more views [[10]] note that the views for the 2018/19 film are split because it was moved at the beginning of this month. The person is probably primary by PT#2 and per WP:NOPRIMARY a DAB page makes sense. The film appears to get its name from the person and the type of person does frequently come in the plural. I suggest that for the same reason as at Talk:Hearts that we have a separate "Freaks" DAB page since only the person would be searched/referred to interchangeably as "Freak"/"Freaks" however like at Talk:Spades (card game)#Requested move 28 April 2019 it might still be preferred to have a single DAB, thus "Freaks" redirecting to Freak (disambiguation). On Commons, Commons:Category:Freaks is about the person and the film is at Commons:Category:Freaks (1932 film). Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:00, 12 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Pixies → Pixies (band) – WP:ASTONISH DAB from Pixie, Pixies (Artemis Fowl), Pixies (EP), Pixies (film), Pixies (The Fairly OddParents) and Pixies (Winx Club). Even though readers are used to seeing things at the plural and the band does get more views [[11]] there are a number of other articles. The creature is probably primary by PT#2 and per WP:NOPRIMARY a DAB page makes sense. The band is named after the creature though it appears the name was selected somewhat randomly but the creatures do frequently come in the plural. I suggest that for the same reason as at Talk:Hearts that we have a separate "Pixies" DAB page since only the creature would be searched/referred to interchangeably as "Pixie"/"Pixies" however like at Talk:Spades (card game)#Requested move 28 April 2019 it might still be preferred to have a single DAB, thus "Pixies" redirecting to Pixie (disambiguation).

- (Discuss) – Jiangnan Automobile → Hunan Jiangnan Automobile – Either Hunan Jiangnan or Hunan Jiangnan Automobile are the most WP:COMMONAMEs in English-language reliable sources (as the the OICA or books). The sources that tend to use more just the "Jiangnan (or JiangNan) Automobile" name are less reliable ones (as China Auto Web or Le Blog Auto) that have little editorial oversight and tend to simply translate from Chinese sources. But even that kind of sources sitting on the grey area aren't consitent on that. A quick Google search proves that there's at least two other "Jiangnan Automobile" companies. An editor said that the Jiangnan Automobile covered in this article (Hunan Jiangnan) is the primary topic for Jiangnan Automobile, and that may ba valid point.If you search 江南汽车 most of the results you would get are related to Hunan Jiangnan and not to the other two Jiangnan companies involved in the automotive industry (Hubei Jiangnan and Zhangjiagang Jiangnan). However, most of the coverage you would get is related to Hunan Jiangnan products. If you don't count that and just count articles related to the companies themselves, the coverage of high-quality sources is very low for the three of them. Urbanoc (talk) 13:28, 12 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – List of Presidents of Austria → List of presidents of Austria – Per MOS:JOBTITLES: "Offices, titles, and positions such as president, king, emperor, grand duke, lord mayor, pope, bishop, abbot, chief financial officer, and executive director are common nouns and therefore should be in lower case when used generically. They are capitalized... when a formal title for a specific entity... is not plural." Major style guides such as AP Stylebook and The Chicago Manual of Style explicitly state that "presidents" (plural) should always be lower case and that "president" (singular) should be upper case only when preceding a president's name.

Move Also sprach Zarathustra (disambiguation) to Also sprach Zarathustra. * Option C: Strauss is the primary topic for "Also sprach Zarathustra". Move Also sprach Zarathustra (Strauss) to Also sprach Zarathustra. Please indicate your full set of preferences, to make clear what you can live with and what is utterly unacceptable to you.

King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:38, 3 May 2019 (UTC) --Relisting. bd2412 T 17:10, 11 May 2019 (UTC)Original works often win out at WP:PTOPIC, and for good reason, though exceptions do exist (e.g. The Godfather). That said, what we have here is a bit of a special case. There is the original work Thus Spoke Zarathustra, and then Richard Strauss wrote a very famous symphonic work after it, Also sprach Zarathustra (Strauss). What's notable here is that the book is mostly referred to by its English title in the course of English text, whereas the symphonic work is primarily referred to by its German title. Since this is the English Wikipedia and we should follow English usage, I argue that the book is not the primary topic for its German title. Indeed, a majority of English Google results for "Also sprach Zarathustra" are on the symphonic work. There is precedent for having different primary topics based on linguistic differences between synonyms, e.g. Dialog vs. Dialogue, or Saint Louis vs. St. Louis.

- (Discuss) – Blue Origin Blue Moon → Blue Moon (spacecraft) – Hi! I thought it would be nice to have a discussion on the naming of this article. Recently (May 2019) Blue Origin has unveiled the "Blue Moon". Here's a link to Blue Origin's Page on the lander. Although I can change the name using the Move feautre (WP:Be Bold). I thought it might be ok to have a discussion on the name change. Here are the Wikipedia policies that would support this name change: "Consistency", "Conciseness", and "Precision"
*Consistency - All of the articles related to Blue Origin are not titled "Blue Origin //so and so//" instead they seem to be called by their WP:Offical Names (such as New Glenn and New Shepard). They do not have the company name in their titles. Other spacecraft like Beresheet 2 also use their official names. Other landers also do not have company names in their tiles. In these cases given all of the "official names" seem to be the "common names". For the Blue Moon spacecraft it might be too early to tell if "Blue Moon" will be a common name or not but still that's the official name. (but thus far "Blue Origin Blue Moon" does not seem that common [12], [13], ) *Precision - As you may have noticed added "(spacecraft)" would deviate from consistently, but is needed to distinguishes it from other uses of "Blue moon" (see disambiguation). It could be possible that saying "Blue Moon" (with the M in caps) could distinguish though. In most cases specifying in "()" seems to be the norm for most Wikipedia pages. (I do give credit that adding "Blue Origin" in the title does make the name precise though) *Conciseness - Adding "spacecraft" is enough, it does not need the manufacturer name, adding it makes the title seem to long (especially because in this case the company name is two words unlike SpaceX Dragon) *Just an opinion - Having 'Blue' twice in the title just seems odd, I might have not suggested a name change if the title did not have 'Blue' twice in the title. Although these are not "rules" but are good points (how I applied them may not be good). Other name coulds be "Blue Moon" or "Blue Moon (lunar lander)" or "Blue Moon lunar lander" or "Blue Moon (lander)" or "Blue Moon lander". Thanks! OkayKenji (talk) 06:12, 11 May 2019 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Cairns (disambiguation) → Cairns – WP:ASTONISH. While the city is probably primary by PT#1 given that readers and editors are used to seeing titles at the singular form. However this is just NC and in the real world and in other areas of Wikipedia objects are frequently pluralized such as Category:Windows, Crickets as pets, Lists of books and {{Closed stations Norfolk}}. Although unlikely, articles could be written at List of Cairns or Cairns on Blencathra. Cairn gets more views that Cairns [[28]]. The proposed title was the title until June 2011 when an undiscussed move was made but presumably "Cairns" redirected there so it wasn't controversial. The stack is probably primary by PT#2 and thus per WP:NOTPRIMARY there should be no primary topic for the plural. At Commons there is Commons:Category:Cairns, Queensland for the city, Commons:Category:Cairns (rock stack landmarks) for the stack and Commons:Category:Cairns is a disambiguation page but the stack used to be primary (until 2014). The city is named after William Cairns and the surname derives from the stack. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:40, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Editorial cartoon → Political cartoon – This term already redirects. The article was created back in 2003 exclusively about cartoons in regular newspapers and magazines. But in the "golden age" (or the first of several) of cartoons they were never contained in publications, but sold individually, so there was no "editor" or "editorial" involved. Today, with the internet, they are again often stand-alone works not connected with a publication. Also, at least in the UK, "editorial cartoon" is just not the WP:COMMONNAME. So the less specific term is much better. Johnbod (talk) 16:42, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Croydon Aerodrome robbery → Croydon Aerodrome theft – This was not a robbery (in a legal or otherwise sense) because no force was used against any person; it is properly characterized as a theft or, more specifically, burglary. None of the linked sources (except one) refers to it as a "robbery," so it's not a situation where the event is commonly known, even if incorrectly, as a "robbery." If "theft" is inelegant, I am open to other alternatives. (One of the articles refers to it as a "heist," which is not a legal term, of course, but "robbery" has a specific meaning that this event simply doesn't fit.) I considered just moving the article myself, but I thought a discussion may be helpful in case (contrary to my understanding) the event itself is commonly known as the "Croydon Aerodrome robbery" and to determine whether "theft" is the best word to refer to it.

While DC Comics is a similar case where it basically means "Detective Comics Comics", the difference is that, as evidenced by the compliance with the Manual of Style's casing guidelines, "lander" isn't part of an official or any commonly recognisable name and is simply a descriptor intended to clarify the subject of the title. There is nothing else named "Schiaparelli EDM" and therefore this clarification isn't needed. It's the Schiaparelli Entry, Descent and Landing Demonstrator Module (EDM), and per guidelines on precision and conciseness, it doesn't need to be titled any other way. – PhilipTerryGraham (talk · articles · reviews) 03:58, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – James, Viscount Severn → James Windsor, Viscount Severn – There was a similar request back in 2017, but not so many users participated, and that's why I wanted to resubmit it. To those who are wondering the reason behind this request, I have to tell that James is not a titled royal. Thus like his sister, Lady Louise Windsor (or Mountbatten-Windsor, depending on different sources), and all his cousins who are not princes or princess (Archie Mountbatten-Windsor, Alexander Windsor, Earl of Ulster; George Windsor, Earl of St Andrews) he does use a surname. The argument that he's a British prince by law is pointless. The palace officially treats Prince Edward's children as the children of an earl rather than a prince and we cannot include our original research and speculations here as to what their titles should have been. It also appears that the page was moved to its current title without a discussion, and it was originally titled NN Windsor, Viscount Severn before his name was announced. A search on Google also shows that James Windsor, James Mountbatten-Windsor and James Viscount Severn are equally common, and even sources such as Debrett's call him James Windsor. There are also documents from the official website of the royal family that mention his name with a surname included (1). Keivan.fTalk 20:39, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

The WP:OFFICIALNAME is singular (more specifically known as Coupe du Président) and most the usages of that term in the News hits come from local papers, mostly the English-speaking Atlantic provinces with Q teams. However, the more widely distributed sources seem to use the possessive name, such as NHL.com, CBC and CHL.com. In this particular case, unlike with Stanley Cup Finals vs. Final (the league used name), I would probably weight the local sources as the more commonly used vernacular as they cover the subject more frequently, and hence more likely to use the team familiar to those who would search for, while the non-local sources may just be in error due to many other trophies that use the possessive.
