Uranpyrochlore (of Hogarth 1977)Uranpyrochlore – At the present time, it is unclear why Uranpyrochlore redirects to Pyrochlore. For this reason, this page should move to the base title since it is a title match.

  • Comment - @Steel1943: why not rename the article to "Ellsworthite", which seems to be used throughout the text? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:45, 7 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose, this article describes a particular variety of uranpyrochlore, "uranpyrochlore of the Ellsworthite variety" as some sources describe it. It was moved from the original Ellsworthite title a couple of years ago. There are other pyrochlores that include uranium such as hatchettolite. I personally would have thought that "Ellsworthite" would have been a less confusing title (sources using this exact form are not that many), but the move was made by Chris.urs-o who is an expert in this domain. – Thjarkur (talk) 23:17, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose, uranpyrochlore (of Hogarth 1977) is not a valid mineral name anymore. The pyrochlore supergroup/group should be updated. Uranpyrochlore (of Hogarth 1977) and uranpyrochlore are synonyms after mindat.org. All discredited names of pyrochlores and questionable mineral names of pyrochlores should be listed on pyrochlore supergroup/group. Regards --Chris.urs-o (talk) 15:51, 17 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose, Rename to Ellsworthite, per Cwmhiraeth. Uranpyrochlore is a subset of Pyrochlore. It could be expanded to it's own page, as a list of all the minerals that have Pyrochlore chemical structure, while also including uranium. Ellsworthite is just one of the uranpyrochlores, and a subset of the much larger pyrochlore. Thus, renaming it to uranopyrochlore would be incorrect, in substituting the subset for the set immediately above it. Benkenobi18 (talk) 19:15, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
