Talk:Queen's Plate (disambiguation)

Kings Plate

This needs rereplication at Kings Plate for a new disambiguation page, as not all will be raced under kings and queens. -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 11:23, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

Queens Plate

“ Queen's Plate or King's Plate at Newmarket Racecourse, England, run between 1634 and 1765 ”

was this ever a Queen's Plate? Was it under Queen Anne? Or was it always a King's Plate? -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 11:23, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

Requested move 9 September 2022

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved to Queen's Plate (disambiguation) as proposed. There's consensus that the disambiguation page needs an apostrophe. I don't see a consensus here on the question (which received little discussion) of whether there's a primary topic for Queen's Plate; feel free to start a follow-up RM regarding that issue at any time.

Queens Plate → Queen's Plate (disambiguation) – missing apostrophe in disambiguation page title 199.7.157.97 (talk) 08:31, 9 September 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. – robertsky (talk) 13:35, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

• No comment on the apostrophe, but don't see why it needs the disambiguation tag adding. -Kj cheetham (talk) 14:40, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
  • Oppose To be clear, I oppose the request in it's current form, and am neutral about moving to Queen's Plate. -Kj cheetham (talk) 23:09, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
    • Striking self given MB's comment below. -Kj cheetham (talk) 10:45, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
• Oppose Agree that this doesn't need the tag, and I don't see a need for a move to add the apostrophe. weak support without the dab tag - UtherSRG (talk) 14:51, 9 September 2022 (UTC) - as amended UtherSRG (talk)
• Support. The only item at the dabpage that does not have the apostrophe is the L'Ormarins Queens Plate Oak Tree Stakes. 162 etc. (talk) 15:30, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
• Support Obvious typo - Queen isn't plural - and tag necessary as all the links to Queen's Plate are to the Canadian event renamed King's Plate 208.98.222.110 (talk) 23:05, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
  • Comment There being some links to fix isn't a reason to include a tag on an article title. -Kj cheetham (talk) 23:08, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
    • Comment Not just some, over 300 links need to be fixed, all of which appear to refer to the Toronto King's Plate event specifically. 208.98.222.110 (talk) 23:19, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Station1 (talk) 17:16, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

• Comment This discussion seems to have not fully addressed that Queen's Plate currently exists as a redirect to King's Plate. I agree with everyone what has said there should be an apostrophe. If there is consensus to add the apostrophe, then the next question to answer is whether King's Plate is the WP:Primary topic. If it is, then the redirect stays at the basename and the dab page should be at Queen's Plate (disambiguation). If there is no PT, then the dab belongs at the base name otherwise it would be a WP:MALDAB. MB 02:32, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
  • Comment the article at King's Plate (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) was at Queen's Plate (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) until Elizabeth II died, when it was moved -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 04:35, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
  • Comment Good point. -Kj cheetham (talk) 10:45, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
    • Comment It's also not determined yet that the race run as the Queen's Plate is going to be renamed, so the move of that article to King's Plate is premature in any case. If the race doesn't get renamed, the article will have to be moved back to Queen's Plate.Bcp67 (talk) 12:49, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

      That is correct. Woodbine has stated that they haven't made that decision yet.[1] 162 etc. (talk) 15:35, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

• Comment According to this article, the South African race has been renamed King's Plate. 162 etc. (talk) 15:07, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
