The Dover Road (film) → Where Sinners Meet – Requesting on behalf of Onel5969 whose rationale is: "contemporaneous sources all agree that the title of the film is indeed Where Sinners Meet, and that The Dover Road was simply a working title, since the source (Milne's book) was titled that." The original request was made as a request to delete the redirect currently at Where Sinners Meet, which was declined because a discussion about a page move should happen on the article's talk page. Onel5969 was provided a link to instructions but has not done so, so I am opening the discussion on their behalf. I don't expect this to be controversial but it was declined as a speedy request.

Support as nominator. The purpose behind the original request is clearly correct: the current page title was a working title but the film now has a proper name. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 16:42, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment What sources are there to back this up? I'm happy to support this BTW, if/when they're listed. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 08:01, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Both AFI and BFI list this film under Where Sinners Meet. BFI calls The Dover Road an "alternate title". AFI gives more detail: The Dover Road was a working title but the film was renamed before its 1934 release as Where Sinners Meet. The other reference in the article is an archived 1935 review of the film, which calls it Where Sinners Meet. Note that the IMDb link template seems to use our article title for its wording no matter what, but it actually links to the IMDb page for Where Sinners Meet.
