Mr. WimpyMr. Wimpy (game) – The plain title Mr. Wimpy should be a redirect to Wimpy (restaurant)#Mr. Wimpy, which discusses the character in general. --Relisted. George Ho (talk) 18:46, 21 May 2015 (UTC) – 209.211.131.181 (talk) 18:48, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:NCVGDAB (video game) is to be used over (game).--70.27.228.231 (talk) 02:36, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

I'm fine with "(video game)" as a disambiguator as well. My concern is that the name of the character should point to the information we have on the character, not to a BurgerTime clone. 209.211.131.181 (talk) 04:30, 15 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Dr. Vogel (talk) 12:08, 5 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@DrVogel: That is actually your undiscussed move which was prevented by the admin wasn't it? Even without the previous RM this was certainly not a case for an uncontroversial move. This obscure freebie at Wimpy restaurants was one of dozens of promotional giveaways during the use of the character. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:57, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, no, I never moved this article. It was brought up as a technical request and I opened this RM because I didn't think it was uncontroversial. I supported the move initially, but I may change to oppose as per the new reasons people are giving. Dr. Vogel (talk) 17:08, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@DrVogel: sorry, I misread the page history, my mistake. Also noted editors below comments on refs to Mr Wimpy in the article 2016 having been removed. Very odd that one promotional freebie for a character should override what evidently was years of promotions. In ictu oculi (talk) 19:22, 10 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
no problem! Dr. Vogel (talk) 20:37, 11 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
