Phoenix Roadrunners (ECHL) → Phoenix RoadRunners (ECHL) – This version of the team styled itself as RoadRunners (note the capital R of Runners), as can be seen at their (archived) website (https://web.archive.org/web/20070520231538/http://www.phxroadrunners.com/) and as was reflected by this article until recently. Other, unconnected teams that used this name previously all used "Roadrunners", as can be seen as the disamb page Phoenix_Roadrunners 194.28.124.55 (talk) 00:46, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose move. Third-party sources do not support CamelCase here. O.N.R. ^(talk) 09:45, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per O.N.R. and WP:COMMONNAME. While RoadRunners was definitely the WP:OFFICIALNAME, my source searching from the time period during and after the team's existence seems to say it was only used independently about 1 in 10 articles. Even the Suns, who shared the same ownership at the time, didn't use the camel case in its own press releases. Yosemiter (talk) 17:34, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- 'Comment As per WP:OFFICIALNAME should there be a redirect then, and should the name within the article be "RoadRunners" or "Roadrunners"? If a redirect is acceptable I will withdraw the requested move. 194.28.124.55 (talk) 02:01, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
