Durham University Solar Car → Durham University Electric Motorsport – The organization in question changed its name to 'Durham University Electric Motorsport' some time ago, and it seems sensible to change the title and add a redirect from 'DUEM', while keeping 'Durham University Solar Car' and 'DUSC' as redirects. Unlikely to be controversial, but I have a conflict of interest (affiliated with the organization) as well as not being an autoconfirmed user.
