Show name

The article is titled NWA Power and suggests that the show's name is "stylized" as NWA Powerrr, but everything from the NWA seems to indicate that the literal name of the show is spelled with those three "r"s. Isn't it a bit silly for Wikipedia editors to second-guess the declared name of a series just because it's spelled in a non-traditional way? The primary article should clearly be renamed to NWA Powerrr, with a redirect from NWA Power. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ErdrickLoto (talk • contribs)

@ErdrickLoto: maybe it should say officially, but the page name should go by what its commonly referred to by WP:RS, which all only use 1 r: [1] [2] [3]. Do you have any examples of RS using a 3 r spelling? But the youtube page does have 3 r, so it should be the official name, but not the WP:COMMONNAME

Well, there's [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], etcetera, etcetera. Depending on which search engine I use, "NWA Powerrr" has anywhere from slightly more to considerably more results than "NWA Power", so it seems to me as though it's both the official and common name.

Of the ones you listed only The Wrap and Prowrestling.net qualify as reliable sources. In my navigation I have seen Power used more than Powerrr. It is also not pronounced Powerrr. StaticVapor message me! 05:21, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The actual show itself isn't a reliable source, nor are the websites that report the name properly, but a bunch of websites that get the name wrong are reliable sources? Chrissakes. Fine, let it be wrong then. I'm not invested enough in Wikipedia to spend the next decade rules-lawyering this nonsense.ErdrickLoto (talk) 03:23, 10 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The show is called NWA Powerrr, and that's just a fact. You are right about that. NWA Power is NOT the name of the show as you can clearly see at their webpage ^[1], and ALL their sites, social media, YouTube, etc. It was first announced as NWA Power (and that's why there are some sources calling it NWA Power), but changed immediately before the first airing of Powerrr. They never used Power after the first airing again. NWA Powerrr is the official name.BoundForGloryX (talk) 23:58, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hey everyone, the official website calls it Powerrr, I don't know of a better source than that. Article was updated accordingly, and somebody with an account should start a rename. 162.208.171.22 (talk) 07:15, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Except wikipedia follows WP:COMMONNAME, not official name. - Galatz גאליץ ^{שיחה Talk} 00:33, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The commonly recognizable name is POWERRR. That's how everyone writes it. It's the only name for this show. The offical, and the common one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BoundForGloryX (talk • contribs) 13:07, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Based on what? Please review WP:PW/RS and give a break down of how several different RS refer to it to support your claim. - Galatz גאליץ ^{שיחה Talk} 14:30, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Based on every single site on the internet. It's called Powerrr, and everyone writes it that way. Most importantly, the official websites, social media, etc of the NWA write it as Powerrr. It's simple: It's called Powerrr. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BoundForGloryX (talk • contribs) 23:40, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If "everyone writes it that way" than do what I asked. I read plenty of different websites and they don't. In an official press release NWA last week called it Power [9]. Lets look at other RS: [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15]. So as I said prove your case, because clearly you are just making it up as you go. - Galatz גאליץ ^{שיחה Talk} 12:58, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

These all use Powerrr.... The NWA itself uses Powerrr. Why shouldn't the article follow that? [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] 162.208.171.22 (talk) 05:12, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page).

Those that you are mentioning are not WP:RS for the most part. And I have shown you that NWA uses Power. - Galatz גאליץ ^{שיחה Talk} 18:16, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The NWA uses 'Power'? I am baffled, read their website [21]. Do you think they make the same typo over and over, including the URL and official hashtag? And IMDB isn't a reliable source? Somebody please WP:RM. 162.208.171.22 (talk) 22:01, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Did you look at the link I provided you where I showed that NWA called it Power? And no IMDB is a user generated site, so it is not reliable. - Galatz גאליץ ^{שיחה Talk} 16:27, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I would definitely consider the official website's spelling more reliable than that of a hastily-released damage control statement. 162.208.171.22 (talk) 01:20, 12 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

NWA Power → NWA Powerrr – As per discussion above, the spelling of 'Powerrr' is used on their website, twitter, their youtube show and is WP:CommonName as per other wrestling journalists. Discussion above does not show a consensus however, so a proper discussion with clear preferences is needed. 81.100.249.148 (talk) 08:21, 12 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose That's like asking for Impact Wrestling's article to be reformated as "Impact! Wrestling, or IMPACT Wrestling, or IMPACT! Wrestling, etc." It's a stylization for marketing and branding purposes. Nothing more, nothing less. MarcoPolo250 (talk) 14:56, 12 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I think you need to re-read what is above. RS only use one "r", as does NWA. - Galatz גאליץ ^{שיחה Talk} 14:04, 13 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Please note I am being impartial, more that I saw a discussion that lacked a consensus. Reliable sources use 3 and 1 R. Please be civil. 81.100.249.148 (talk) 19:24, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support NWA has branded this show as Powerrr and consistently uses this spelling across all channels. Reliable sources seem to be split in their use of Powerrr/Power, so I don't see a consensus common name there. A peculiar spelling should not be considered stylism either. 162.208.171.22 (talk) 04:34, 17 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Many pieces of media are marketed or advertised with stylised lettering (eg. Se7en, Driv3r, The H8ful Eight). It's quite a common media tactic because it makes the title look more flashy and cool. But you will notice that their article names are not titled as such. A pointless move, and completely counter to every other instance of stylised lettering. DTH89^{(sexy talk page)} 13:52, 19 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

NWA Power → NWA Powerrr – Last discussed in February 2020. The spelling with three 'r's is used not only by the show's homepage on FITE [22] and the NWA website [23], but also by third-party sources such as these [24] [25] [26] [27], all of which are considered reliable sources per WP:PW/RS. 162 etc. (talk) 07:57, 6 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Suppport per OP. This doesn't appear to just be a stylistic thing and seems to be its actual name. — Czello 09:14, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support Several sources use the 3 Rs. So, it's the official name. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 13:46, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
