Evening dressEvening attire – Per WP:PRECISION (disambiguate from evening gown), and WP:CONSISTENCY in accordance with equivalent articles such as day attire, semi-formal attire, informal attire, casual attire, etc. Chicbyaccident (talk) 13:32, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Paintspot: They have now been merged here. Not only the question remains about its article name. Please feel free to provide your opinion. Chicbyaccident (talk) 13:59, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yes - now that page is further updated to illustrate the redundant, double content location. Chicbyaccident (talk) 09:20, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
While the n-gram may be taken into account, its relevance should also be evaluated in terms of WP:PRECISION and 21st century customs from credible print and non-print sources. Mere quantity, judging from a timespan when the expression "evening dress" was considered less archaic, should probably be handled carefully. Most importantly, however, please note that the n-gram does not disambiguate when the context actually makes the term or expression refer to an evening gown rather than to evening attire which the discussion is about here.

  • As it stands, this is not a move request, and a close won't end with a merge unless you have a relatively cooperative closer (see WP:DEMAND). I suggest withdrawing the proposal and discussing the possibility of a merge separately. Dekimasuよ! 20:33, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Dekimasu: The two duplicate disambiguation pages have now been restored per your remark. So the rename request discussion may contintue without any other complications. Chicbyaccident (talk) 13:59, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
