Adam-12 (1990 TV series) → The New Adam-12 – This is the correct name for this show. This name is seen on-screen (as evidenced in the screenshot on the page) and used on IMDb and other references. Relisted. BDD (talk) 18:42, 26 August 2013 (UTC) Rhindle The Red (talk) 03:56, 17 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - Per WP:AT, officiality is not a reason to change the name. Also, sources that refer it as "The New Adam-12" were published in 1989 or 1990, and are too old to consider them reliable. Precision is good enough to keep the title as is. --George Ho (talk) 06:34, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral Both pages exist, so this won't have much effect, other than a Bot getting excited about links to redirects. Officiality isn't a reason, sure, but officiality has an indirect effect on usage, and one can argue that (1990 TV series) is no usage at all, while ongoing usage via catalog sites favors the official name.
