2022 Kazakh unrest → Bloody January – Most sources use this title instead of 2022 Kazakh unrest. UkraineFella (talk) 12:26, 8 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Bloody January is far too broad a term. PatGallacher (talk) 12:44, 8 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Please offer some sources that use this term. 331dot (talk) 12:58, 8 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Most sources do use Bloody January or some variation thereof but because of the several alternate names for this event it would be clearer if the article stayed with a conventional name. --(Roundish ⋆t) 15:14, 8 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
How about Bloody January (Kazakhstan)? UkraineFella (talk) 15:21, 8 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Lacks sufficient clarity. Even if this was the common name, a descriptive title with the year and country is better. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 16:12, 9 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per above. Also, new account making a bunch of move requests and moves on conflicts looks familiar. Mellk (talk) 01:23, 10 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I just want to state here that the January Events or Qantar is actually a more commonly used to describe the event. At least as far as I heard from people in KZ. So had you proposed to rename that I might've supported it. ShadZ01 (talk) 02:40, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
