Benjamin Wade (Survivor contestant) → Coach (Survivor contestant) — Primarily known as "Coach" in his Survivor seasons, and is therefore mostly referred to as Coach in the relevant Wikipedia pages. Allied45 (talk) 09:56, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Survey

Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with *'''Support''' or *'''Oppose''', then sign your comment with ~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's policy on article titles.

Oppose: Boston Rob points to Rob Mariano. Benjamin "Coach" Wade already redirects here. If there is another redirect to add that would help, go ahead, but it appears we have used real names for Survivor articles even for those who often used nicknames.--Milowent (talk) 13:01, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: A redirect would suffice. Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 17:33, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

180 source confusion

Ok so near the bottom of this article it says coach is appearing in the film 180 but, the source that is numbered 14 is not correct with the clickable 180 page link that is just before it. The source 14 says the movie was released on the 17th while the clickable 180 says it was released on the 25th and has no mention of Coach or danielle. So we've got a problem here. It seems like there are 2 180 movies out there. Anyone mind explaining this or clearing it upMrInhibitor (talk) 01:09, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

PROD removed

Article is not eligible for WP:PROD as it has been discussed at AfD. -Rushyo ^Talk 16:41, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Possible move?

Per WP:COMMONNAME, I feel this article should be titled "Coach (Survivor contestant)" - his most commonly known name is Coach, not Benjamin Wade. And if we're going to include "(Survivor contestant)" in the title anyways, it should say his common name rather than his real name. Thoughts? Gloss • talk 22:18, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I should note that I did look at the previous discussion on this talk page, however with only two !votes and little discussion, I decided to reopen a thread about it. Gloss • talk 22:19, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Any opposition..? Opinions? Gloss • talk 19:30, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't look like there is, but since it went through a requested move before and was not moved, you should not move it without a requested move with a consensus to move it. GB fan 19:41, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely. Was simply looking for a discussion first. Will go ahead and fire up a RM, though. Gloss • talk 19:44, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 2

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved, for the time being, although given the previous move request and lack of input here, this should be revisited as necessary. Dekimasuよ! 00:15, 30 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Benjamin Wade (Survivor contestant) → Coach (Survivor contestant) – Mainly per WP:COMMONNAME. Never, not once, while on Survivor, was he referred to as "Benjamin" - always referred to as "Coach." Since his notability comes from his appearances on Survivor only, where he was known as "Coach," the article should be titled accordingly. --Relisted.

Comment I dislike this disambiguator format "Survivor contestant" makes me thing of wrestlers -- 67.70.35.44 (talk) 05:25, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Any particular reason for that? Gloss 03:38, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WWE has a survivor series wrestling event, which has contestants, pro-wrestlers. -- 67.70.35.44 (talk) 23:06, 21 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe one wrestling event could cause that much confusion. If the article title said "Survivor series contestant" it would be a different story. However, the RM proposal is for "Benjamin Wade -> Coach" so I'm hoping we can focus on that. Gloss 16:14, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
