  • The ODESSA FileThe Odessa File —(Discuss)— I propose to revert a move that was made without discussion and based on incorrect assumption. The alleged ODESSA organization is most often called ODESSA with capitalization due to its being an acronym. Some editors assume that both film and book also use that same capitalization. However, they do not. The original Hutchinson & Co book release from 1972 clearly makes a distinction between the title and the organization, and Forsyth himself makes that distinction in the author's note and foreword, referring to the organization as ODESSA initially (Odessa later) and to the book as The Odessa File consistently. User Barbatus moved the article The Odessa File to The ODESSA File without previous discussion, and explaining the move was made because of the acronym. I contacted Barbatus about this, but get the impression he may be less active than before, so I chose to use the talk page instead.

  • True loveTrue Love —(Discuss)— Disambiguation page where all the disambiguated entries are titles capitalized as True Love. Seems very obvious and uncontroversial to me, but since there was a previous discussion about 18 months ago that ended with no consensus (although all of the reasons for disagreement seem very poor, at least applied to the page's current version) it seemed like I should list it here. There's an edit history at True Love anyway. --Propaniac (talk) 21:22, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Said Ali al-ShihriSa'id Ali Jabir Al Khathim Al Shihri —(Discuss)— This move should be made to revert a recent unilateral, undiscussed move. It is unclear whether the new name is actually for the same person as the existing article was about, as I will explain further on the talk page. This is a BLP issue. I moved it once, and the other hasty contributor moved it back, without waiting for my explanation on the talk page, otherwise I would have listed this as an uncontroversial request.
