Requested move 8 September 2017

[edit]
The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result was: moved as proposed to Avīci (01). There was clear consensus for a move away from the all caps title. The separate issue that came up of whether the macron "ī" should be included has not reached a clear consensus, but several editors have correctly pointed out that the word, Avīci, does contain a macron. The preference for internal consistency for Wikipedia article titles thus supports retaining that diacritic. bd2412 T 12:06, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

AVĪCI (01)Avīci (01) – The title isn't an abbreviation, just a stylization of Avicii's name. JE98 (talk) 15:11, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). — Zawl 15:17, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't seem to consistently be in the name and is listed at just EP on Qobuz and other sources. If other EPs come then it would becomed (2017 EP). In ictu oculi (talk) 07:08, 24 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It's in most of the sources so I personally wouldn't ditch it merely because one or two digital retailers didn't include it. "01" isn't part of the disambiguator anyway, it's in the actual title. It's more debatable whether the macrons should be removed. Hayman30 (talk) 08:21, 24 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – This request has gone on for two weeks now, and I think the best decision, as I originally requested is to move the EP to Avīci (01). "Avīci" is the official name of the EP, not stylized, and apparently it is in a series of EPs, so "(01)" should be kept. Should someone want to change the name, they can set up another request.

I think a majority of editors support the removal of macrons as well. Unarguably, the "ī" is not stabilization. Just because it looks like an alternative spelling and a stylized version of Avicii doesn't mean it is. Hayman30 (talk) 12:47, 24 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I think the majority of the debate was changing "I" to "ī" rather than removing the macrons, so I think we should keep them for now, but again, if there is an argument to remove them, I am willing to hear. JE98 (talk) 23:25, 24 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
