The result of the move request was: Withdrawn by nom In ictu oculi (talk) 14:21, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Weija-Gbawe (Ghana parliament constituency) → Weija – Weija is a precursor constituency which was demarcated into three new constituencies – Anyaa-Sowutuom, Bortianor-Ngleshie-Amanfrom, and Weija-Gbawe ahead of the Ghanaian 2012 general elections (I have already made these statements on the article. So basically there's no Weija Constituency but it's also important that people know that it existed and it even had an MP. Some Wikipedia articles still have this slight confusion. Once this page move is done, I can proceed to make the changes. sandiooses^TextMe 21:48, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy close: malformed request, an article at Weija already exists. Ebonelm (talk) 23:10, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. It should be also noted that the parenthetical qualifier "(Ghana parliament constituency)" is unnecessary since there is no Wikipedia article titled Weija-Gbawe. However since, as noted above by Ebonem, an article titled "Weija" does exist, the same qualifier may be used to create an entry with the main header "Weija (Ghana parliamentary constituency)" or even "Weija (parliamentary constituency)" —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 01:08, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
—Roman Spinner you are right, actually my request should have specified that it should be moved to Weija (Ghana parliamentary constituency). Because Weija as a town differs from the Weija as a constituency. I will put in an updated request. sandiooses^TextMe 08:30, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. As in the previous discussion, above, this nomination also requires an "it should be noted" comment that the form used within the qualifiers for such electoral districts is "parliament constituency", not "parliamentary constituency" (see, for example, the entries within the contradictorily-titled Category:Parliamentary constituencies in the Greater Accra Region). This nomination would, therefore, also appear to be somewhat malformed. The correct nomination form would thus be: Weija-Gbawe (Ghana parliament constituency) → Weija (Ghana parliament constituency). —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 03:00, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
