Technical requests[edit]
Uncontroversial technical requests[edit]
- Clare Town Hall → Clare Town Hall (New York) (move · discuss) – Clare Town Hall, Suffolk has 51 views (though a new article) compared with only 16 for the New York one so no clear primary topic. Crouch, Swale (talk) 18:57, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Mayor of Golapganj. → Mayor of Golapganj (currently a redirect back to Mayor of Golapganj.) (move · discuss) – I had moved this to Mayor of Golapganj Municipality, an editor reverted with the period added in error, and I withdrew my RM to move it back to Mayor of Golapganj Municipality per WP:CONSISTENT (see Category:Mayors of places in Bangladesh). voorts (talk/contributions) 16:15, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Cajeput oil → Cajuput oil (currently a redirect back to Cajeput oil) (move · discuss) – Article was moved from Cajuput to Cajeput in 2014: "Sphilbrick moved page Cajuput oil to Cajeput oil over redirect: predominant spelling". However Wiktionary has "cajuput" as the main listing and "cajeput" as an alternative form. Matt Gies (talk) 17:19, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
- There was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe → There Was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe (currently a redirect back to There was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe) (move · discuss) – "Was" is a verb and is therefore capitalized per MOS:TITLECAPS (cf. There Was an Old Woman Who Lived Under a Hill). DigitalIceAge (talk) 01:34, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- User:OToToT/Naomi Payton → Naomi Payton (currently a redirect instead to Love Live! Superstar!!) (move · discuss) – Naomi Payton now has more activities than the time when the page was created. (See: ja wiki) I think she can fit the wiki standard now. Thus, I want to move it back to article space, so everyone can know her and make edits to reflect her current status. OToToT (talk) 15:48, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Ace West (character) → Ace West (currently a redirect back to Ace West (character)) (move · discuss) – Ace West currently redirects to Ace West (character), there being nothing to disambiguate against. Born in the maw of dug (talk) 16:40, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades → Al-Qassam Brigades (currently a redirect back to Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades) (move · discuss) – Super-dooper ultra common name move request here - just can't seem to override the redirect from my end. The long-form is rarely used in practice. Iskandar323 (talk) 19:51, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
Requests to revert undiscussed moves[edit]
Contested technical requests[edit]
- Airtel Bangladesh → Airtel (Bangladesh) (currently a redirect back to Airtel Bangladesh) (move · discuss) – Airtel Bangladesh was a independent company till 2016. At now Airtel is a licensed brand of Robi Axiata Ltd. So it should be moved on the proposd title. ~ Farhan Snigdho (message) 06:16, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
- This move doesn't seem necessary to me, per WP:NATURALDIS and WP:TITLECON - all other entries at Category:Bharti Airtel are of the form Airtel <NameOfCountry>... Cheers — Amakuru (talk) 11:20, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
- In other entries Airtel is an independent brand but in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka it is a brand of Axiata where 'Airtel' is a licensed brand name from Bharti Airtel. ~ Farhan Snigdho (message) 04:13, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
