African-American biblical hermeneutics → African American biblical hermeneutics – WP:COMMONNAME is without hyphen, as can be attested through the references cited in article and other scholarly literature on the subject. A similar discussion was had in the Talk:Asian American studies#Requested move 18 June 2021.—Caorongjin 💬 16:32, 15 June 2022 (UTC)— Relisting. Spekkios (talk) 01:33, 23 June 2022 (UTC).

Oppose Please see MOS:DUALNATIONALITIES: "An en dash between separate nations; for people and things identifying with multiple nationalities, use a hyphen when applied as an adjective or a space as a noun." Without the hyphen, it is simply not correct punctuation. Google often bases its results off Wikipedia, so you have to be very cautious when using it to determine WP:COMMONNAME. The main papers about ethnic American biblical hermeneutics also do not use correct punctuation. Therefore I strongly recommend keeping the hyphen.

Comment I would clarify that "Africa" and "African" is by no means a nation/nationality. So I don't see how MOS:DUALNATIONALITIES applies here. —Caorongjin 💬 16:32, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom; ngrams shows no use of current name, but some use of the proposed name. BilledMammal (talk) 12:18, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support WP:MOS#Hyphens: "Avoid using hyphen to connect racial or ethnic descriptors, regardless of whether or not they are used attributively (Aboriginal Australians, Asian American studies, Black British people)." Dayirmiter (talk) 17:31, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
