• Won Gyun → Wŏn Kyun – (Discuss) – Pre-1945 names should use McCune-Reischauer per WP:NCKO. Motjustescribe (talk) 20:55, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
• Bangabandhu Bridge → Jamuna Bridge – (Discuss) –
  "Jamuna Bridge" is the widely recognized WP:COMMONNAME and historically accurate name. It was happily bearing the name "Jamuna Bridge" since 1998. But during Sheikh Hasina's regime, she renamed it after her father controversially.
  Furthermore, the under-construction Railway Bridge next to this bridge was recently renamed to Jamuna Railway Bridge from "Bangabandhu Railway Bridge", indicating a return to the use of common and socially acceptable names for infrastructure.
  Therefore, the article should be renamed Jamuna Bridge as soon as possible.

• Illuminati (song) → Illuminati (Madonna song) – (Discuss) – Dab from Illuminati (2024 song) which has been consistently getting more pageviews for the last month. Yes, there is a recentism issue here, but there's also the fact that the standard for partial disambiguation is agreed to be very high, and I'm not convinced this meets it anymore. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 19:55, 30 December 2024 (UTC)

• June 2023 Greek legislative election → June 2023 Greek parliamentary election – (Discuss) – Following on from the discussion that resulted in Czech elections being moved from 'legislative' to 'parliamentary', I would like to propose we do the same for Greece. As mentioned in that discussion, 'parliamentary' is a more clear and precise term for the type of election in question, and probably also a more widely understood term than 'legislative'. Greece is a parliamentary republic and its parliament is called the Hellenic Parliament. The proposed terminology is also more widely used, both on Wikipedia and more widely (171,000 Google hits for 'parliamentary election' vs 39,500 for 'legislative election'). In case there are concerns that other countries use "legislative" and this is an unnecessary change as it is fine for other countries, I am planning on proposing moves for several other countries that use 'legislative' apparently inappropriately in the near future.

• Slovak Republic (1939–1945) → First Slovak Republic – (Discuss) – The title is unnecessarily long because they haven’t moved it there. And even if it was once the title, it was most likely moved to the current title.

• Jesus Nazareno → Black Nazarene – (Discuss) – As per WP:COMMONNAME. We don't necessarily follow official names. The primer sourced by Minute.berger even admittedly states "Popularly called the Black Nazarene". A quick search from October 2024 (the date of the decree) yields mixed results with Black Nazarene still used. Hariboneagle927 (talk) 16:23, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
  • Feast of the Jesus Nazareno → Feast of the Black Nazarene
• Prophethood (Ahmadiyya) → Prophets in Ahmadiyya – (Discuss) – "Prophets in Ahmadiyya" better reflects the content's scope, rather the understanding of prophets in the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community rather than focusing only on the concept of Prophethood. This aligns with Wikipedias guidelines on clarity and specificity in article titles it is similar to Prophets and messengers in Islam or Prophets of Christianity.

• Moldova and the Russo-Ukrainian War → Russian hybrid warfare against Moldova – (Discuss) – This article is a compilation of actions that Russia has done to undermine and destabilize Moldova in the last years. They have happened during the Russo-Ukrainian War, but are part of a single coordinated effort and plan. We can rename the article so it covers this more precise and encyclopedic topic. We have a lot of sources describing this hybrid warfare that Russia is doing against Moldova. Here are some big names: the Institute for the Study of War ("The full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine is, in fact, supporting Russian hybrid warfare efforts in former Soviet states, particularly Moldova and Georgia"), the European Parliament ("vehemently condemns Russia's escalating malicious activities, interference and hybrid operations ahead of Moldovans going to the polls"), Politico citing Moldova's chief of police ("Moldova is facing a phenomenon of voter bribery, combined with hybrid warfare and disinformation, the likes of which our country has never seen before,"), Euronews ("the Kremlin has enacted elements of its hybrid war playbook in both states [Ukraine and Moldova]"), NATO itself ("In Moldova, Russia’s hybrid warfare has been aimed at toppling the country’s pro-EU government"). This hybrid warfare scheme would have involved many actions and events that are either already in the article or would have been had the article been written later. This article, currently with a vague and open scope, is the best recipient for this topic. Here are sources mentioning these actions as hybrid warfare: Russian-paid protests in Moldova ([1]: "Russia has dedicated considerable resources to its hybrid war. [...] For instance, protestors are routinely paid to participate in anti-government protests.", page 6; [2]: "It later emerged that protesters had been paid by Kremlin proxies to attend." in an article about Russian hybrid warfare in Moldova), continuous airspace violations and falling of drones and missiles ([3]: "The overall internal security situation remains stable, but fragile due to regular incidents such as bomb hoaxes and missiles or missile debris falling on Moldovan territory. in a section regarding hybrid warfare, page 258), Transnistria's role in this effort ([4]: "Chisinau has been the victim of a complex hybrid action carried out by the Kremlin on multiple levels. In this respect, the Transnistria region has long been used by Russia as a bargaining chip in its efforts to influence Republic of Moldova."), rigging of elections and vote-buying ([5]: "Indeed, Moldova's election season was marred by massive Russian interference in both campaigns. This meddling included cyberattacks, planned espionage at diaspora polling stations, and the outright buying of votes."; [6]: "Recent votes in the former Soviet states of Georgia and Moldova have been dogged by interference from Russian-backed elements.", "There is a suggestion that these efforts are part of Russia’s multifaceted hybrid warfare."), an alleged coup in February 2023 ([7]: "The timely leak of classified information about Russia's attempts to organize a coup in Chisinau allowed the government to react quickly", page 49, see source's title) and energy blackmail and the energy crisis of 2022 and 2023 (same source and page as before: "Thanks to substantial financial aid from the EU, Moldova was able to survive Russia’s energy blackmail in 2022 and even break Gazprom's monopoly."). This source summarizes everything nicely: Moldova's Response to Hybrid Attacks: A Learning-by-doing Strategy, page 2, "In addition to the potential risks coming from Transnistria, Moldova has witnessed a series of new challenges over the past year and a half, ranging from false bomb alerts, cyber-attacks, and explosions in Transnistria to energy blackmail, paid protests, and Kremlin proxies operating in the autonomous region of Gagauzia. This is all alongside continuous disinformation campaigns.". Note that I've only looked at English-language sources, and several of these sources are written by Moldovans themselves. Here are some random academic sources that I didn't use above [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14]. I think no doubt remains that sources verify that Russia is waging hybrid warfare against Moldova. Do you agree that this article should cover this topic? Super Ψ Dro 12:47, 30 December 2024 (UTC)

• Datsun 510 → Datsun Bluebird (510) – (Discuss) – To be in line with other articles such as Nissan Bluebird (910) and to follow the WP:CARNAMES guidelines - "Datsun 510" was only used in North America, whereas UK/NZ/AU/ZA buyers knew it as the Datsun 1300/1400/1600/1800. Thus, the domestic Japanese name ("Datsun Bluebird", with 510 as a disambiguator to indicate the specific generation) should be applied as the article title.  Mr.choppers | ✎  18:43, 13 December 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. cyberdog958^Talk 14:47, 21 December 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. cyberdog958^Talk 09:35, 30 December 2024 (UTC)

• Glinka → Glinka (disambiguation) – (Discuss) – In the same manner that Borodin redirects to Alexander Borodin paired with a Borodin (disambiguation) page, Mussorgsky to Modest Mussorgsky, Prokofiev to Sergei Prokofiev, Rachmaninoff to Sergei Rachmaninoff, Rimsky-Korsakov to Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, Shostakovich to Dmitri Shostakovich, Stravinsky to Igor Stravinsky, Tchaikovsky to Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Telemann to Georg Philipp Telemann or Wagner redirecting to Richard Wagner paired with a Wagner (disambiguation) page, so should Glinka redirect to Mikhail Glinka. — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 01:29, 30 December 2024 (UTC)

• Ensign (LDS magazine) → Ensign (magazine) – (Discuss) – The presence of a "The" disambiguates both plenty, and the addition of a hatnote to both pages would resolve any confusion. Both targets are currently redirects to their respective pages anyway; if this was truly necessary, both should've been retargeted to Ensign#Newspapers and magazines (though I don't much see the point of that either). And I don't think either are good dabs seeing as LDS is a dab page and doesn't lead directly to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or any related pages, and USPS redirects to the United States Postal Service rather than the United States Power Squadrons which is the subject of the magazine. Altogether wrong and unnecessary. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 23:27, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

It may be not the common name, but this isn't that relevant as the current name is a lot of numbers and digits, nobody will type this every time. Also, there are multiple cases when the common name was ignored in favour to something simpler, like Kepler-429, V1400 Centauri and Talk:UY Sextantis. 21 Andromedae (talk) 12:43, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
• 2024 Central Queensland local elections → Results of the 2024 Queensland local elections in Central Queensland – (Discuss) – Based of the title standard for pages like "Results of the 2022 Australian federal election in Queensland" I think this page and 2024 Darling Downs local elections should be moved back to their previous names. It's an article about the "2024 Queensland local elections" and any of the full results pages should fall as a sub-name if that makes sense. Understand your rational @Klbrain - and completely honest I'll say I'm not stressed about this page name - but definitely prefer the other standard.

• Hegra → Hegra, Norway – (Discuss) – I'm sure the Norwegian village of Hegra is a lovely place, but Hegra (Mada'in Salih) in Saudi Arabia is a UNESCO World Heritage site and arguably the country's top historical site and tourist draw, with "substantially greater enduring notability and educational value than any other topic associated with that term" (WP:PT2). Per WikiNav, Hegra (Mada'in Salih) has 15,200 pageviews, while Hegra has 148, so it meets WP:PT1 as well. I thus would suggest we move the Norwegian village to Hegra, Norway and move Hegra, Saudi Arabia to Hegra as the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC.

• Tawana Brawley rape allegations → Tawana Brawley rape hoax – (Discuss) – *Note: this article has been moved several times over the years to "rape hoax" and un-done because the move was not formally discussed. I wiill do this now. As several others have pointed out, refering to the incident as a "rape allegation" muddles the topic as the allegations were found objectly false and intentionally misleading during the trial and formal investigation. A hoax is defined as a, "a humorous or malicious deception" which applies here as Tawana Brawley knowingly made false accusations to decieve the court and general public. The term "Hoax" is universally used by American media to refer to the incident regardless of political leanings, such as by the New York Times, Retro Report, Associated Press, NPR, CBS, Washington Post [17], Huffpost, Daily Beast, Washington Times, Fox News, and New York Post. I believe that "hoax" is the correct term and not "fraud" as a fraud involves personal gain, and it is not so cut-and-dry as to determine if anyone benifited from the incident. It is nearly 40 years since the events occured, and the controversy has largley died down with the general public. The article is also catagorized under Category:1987 hoaxes and Category:Racial hoaxes and listed in the Racial hoax article. GGOTCC (talk) 23:14, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

• Gascon dialect → Gascon (language variety) – (Discuss) – The precise classifcation of Gascon is controversial. While most scholars consider it to be a dialect of Occitan, Posner and Sala note that it is less comprehensible than Catalan (which is typically classified separately from Occitan) to other southern Occitan speakers. Moreover, Gascon has a standardized variety, Aranese, with official status in the Val d'Aran region of Catalonia, which differs from the literary standard of Occitan. Kristol 2023 asserts that Gascon was "already considered a specific language in the Middle Ages," and Carles and Glessgen 2024 refer to Occitan and Gascon as "two languages." As the terms "language" and "dialect" are ambiguous and somewhat subjective, linguists tend to circumvent extralinguistic polemics by using the term "language variety" to refer to a linguistic system. By characterizing Gascon as a "dialect," the current title appears to clash with Wikipedia's policy of neutrality by favouring a traditional but contested view. The term "language variety" would be a more useful characterization, as it would avoid the use of the ambiguous term "dialect," which tends to evoke social, historical, and political considerations rather than strictly linguistic ones.

• Oloye Akin Alabi → ? – (Discuss) – The subject, Akinola Alabi, is more commonly known by his full name rather than 'Oloye Akin Alabi.' 'Oloye' is an honorific title often used in Yoruba culture to signify a distinguished position or title. See [19] it is not the name by which the subject is primarily recognized in most public and professional contexts. In major news outlets, professional profiles, and official documents, the full name 'Akinola Alabi' is predominantly used. For example, in various media reports and his official biography, his full name is consistently referred to, and it is the name most widely recognized in connection with his career and public service. The use of the full name also aligns with modern naming conventions and ensures clarity for readers seeking accurate information.

The move was undone [21] but reinstated with more or less the same argumentation [22].

While all five are prominent in their communities, none come close to being a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for an international readership of the encyclopedia.

• Italian Ethiopia → Italian occupation of Ethiopia – (Discuss) – I am yet to see an sources refer to this part of Ethiopian history as "Italian Ethiopia", including many used in this article (selected randomly: ref 23, 28, and 49). I am guessing the naming was inspired by the other colonised Africa countries like Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, Italian Somaliland or French Algeria, but just given that time length (5 years) compared to the colonisation of Sudan 57 years, Somalia 47 years and Algeria 92 years, this "editorial naming" should have not been used, as the brevity also make it similar to German occupation of France (lasted for 4 years). After the end of Italian occupation of Ethiopia, Ethiopia was occupied by the British for 3 years (see Occupied Enemy Territory Administration (Ethiopia)) Most books refer to the evet as an invasion (used in the article, see also this), or part of the Italian-Ethiopian war. The description of the 5 years period as an "occupation" is mentioned in many books like "The Addis Ababa Massacre: Italy's National Shame (used in the article) and Legacy of Bitterness: Ethiopia and Fascist Italy, 1935-1941 (1997) FuzzyMagma (talk) 11:54, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

• 2023 periodic review of Westminster constituencies → 2023 review of Westminster constituencies – (Discuss) – I have made this into a request move, here is my original comment:

  As far as I can see, though I may be wrong, this article is one of the only places to refer to this review as "periodic". Of the Boundary Commissions, they all refer to it as "2023 Review of Parliamentary constituencies", with England shorting it to "2023 Review" and Wales to "2023 Parliamentary Review", whilst Scotland and NI do not shorten it in their titles. The HoC calls it "Boundary review 2023", the BBC a "Boundary review" and from a Google search of "2023 periodic review of Westminster constituencies" the only link on the first page that uses that wording is to this page. Additionally this review is not "periodic" continuing from the previous reviews, referred to as as such with ordinals on Wikipedia and other sources, according to legislation, as amended in 2020, the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986 requires the Boundary Commissions to report "(a) before 1 July 2023,(b) before 1 October 2031, and (c) before 1 October of every eighth year after that." As Wikipedia is meant to use titles which are in common use and recognisable, I propose that the title be changed and any references to it as well.LandmarkFilly54 (talk) 16:38, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

• Training centre for release of the Atma-energy → Trainingszentrum zur Freisetzung der Atmaenergie – (Discuss) – The current title we have is a literal, incorrectly capitalized translation of the group's actual proper name, which has never seen use in English RS. Every English source refers to this as either Atman Foundation or Isis Holistic Centre, which are also options (though I think they are actually factually incorrect) - but using a literal translation of a proper name that has never been used by anyone not on Wikipedia is perhaps the worst way to do it.

• Francis Williams (poet) → Francis Williams (18th century) – (Discuss) – "Poet" is clearly not the best way to describe this person. In his lifetime he would have been called a gentleman, which I think is anachronistic for Wikipedia. His main job was a plantation master but this is not what he is known for. His most notable contribution is to astronomy (see Halley's Comet), but he was not a career astronomer. He also made minor contributions to poetry and to local education in Jamaica. I suggest that "Francis Williams (18th century)" is the most neutral title available. See Francis Williams for reference. NotBartEhrman (talk) 18:39, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Therefore, I think this article should be moved to "KCTV (Kansas City)" and leave KCTV as a redirect to Korean Central Television. As the Kansas City's KCTV article is a good article, an undiscussed move may be controversial. Based on Google search results of North Korea's KCTV, Google search results of Kansas City's KCTV, combined page view for two articles and Google Books Ngram viewer (KCTV5 is the Kansas City's KCTV), it also appears that the North Korea's KCTV is gaining more worldwide attention than the Kansas City's KCTV.

• Mufti Abdul Razzaq → Abdul Razzaq (scholar) – (Discuss) – Previous attempts to rename this article were reverted on the grounds that it complies with Wikipedia's CommonName policy. However, based on my understanding, the title does not align with the policy's requirements. "Mufti" is an honorific title, and its inclusion in a CommonName is justified only when it is widely recognized and has become a fundamental part of the subject's identity, as in the cases of Mufti Mehmood or Maulana Azad. A comprehensive review indicates that the subject is not widely discussed in reliable sources, either in English or their native language, and lacks sufficient secondary sources. How, then, was the determination made that this is a CommonName? Coverage is limited, primarily consisting of breaking news after the subject’s death, with the majority of sources being relatively non-mainstream. While it is common for media to use titles in describing individuals, such usage does not necessarily equate to a CommonName under Wikipedia's criteria. –𝐎𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐥 𝐐𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢 ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ 14:29, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

• Template:Bangladeshi wedding → Template:Bengali wedding – (Discuss) – Bengali weddings refer to the traditional wedding ceremonies of the Bengali ethnic group, who primarily reside in the Bengal region, which spans both India and Bangladesh. It’s important to note that the concept of Bangladesh as a separate country only emerged in 1971. Before that, the region was part of Pakistan, known as East Pakistan. Therefore, the wedding traditions are shared by Bengali people across both India and Bangladesh, as they belong to the same ethnic and cultural heritage. To clarify, just as Korean people live in both North and South Korea, Bengali people live in both India and Bangladesh. It’s misleading to describe Bengali weddings as specific to one country alone, as this neglects the shared cultural practices of Bengali people living in both nations. This old 2016 move Template:Bengali wedding to Template:Bangladeshi wedding was wrong and misleading.

• Dundas railway station, Sydney → Dundas light rail stop – (Discuss) – This is an extension of the discussion on Talk:Parramatta Light Rail. New L4 light rail stops have opened at the locations of the closed railway stations along the former Carlingford line. I just want to get a consensus on whether to convert the articles into light rail stop articles, while retaining its history and former heavy rail services. Melbourne had a prior history of converting heavy rail stations to light rail stops. Examples are St Kilda light rail station, South Melbourne light rail station, Albert Park light rail station, Middle Park light rail station, Montague Street light rail station. In particular Beacon Cove light rail station is most similar to Rosehill Gardens, with a change in station name. User:Willthorpe has jumped the gun and converted the Dundas article to a light rail stop article, but I think what they have done is a reasonable template to follow. Dundas is unique in that it is the only former railway station on the Carlingford line where the station building is heritage listed and retained during the conversion to light rail.

• Christmas and holiday season → Festive season – (Discuss) – There have been a few move requests for this page over the years, including one which concluded just a few weeks ago. However, as far as I can see, there has never been a move request to this particular target article title. The present title, “Christmas and holiday season”, feels something of an awkward compromise title between “Christmas season” (which excludes other festivals in this period, such as Chanukah) and “holiday season”, which aside from other issues is ambiguous. “Festive season” is quite a commonly used term to refer to this period, while benefiting from very little ambiguity. It is a much more natural and straightforward article title for this page. Rafts of Calm (talk) 22:06, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

• Saskatchewan Progress Party → Saskatchewan Liberal Party – (Discuss) – While the current name of the party is the Progress Party, it is not the most notable name this party had. Under its current name, the party has never had a single MLA and finished last in only election (2024) it ever ran in under its current name. A good precedent would be the Alberta Social Credit Party, its current name is the Pro-Life Alberta Political Association, but it is still known by its older, historic, more relevant name. Like the Alberta Socreds, the Saskatchewan Liberals were a prominent party under its historic name. They elected premiers and either led the government or led the opposition. An alternative proposal would be to WP:SPLIT the article into two articles: one for the Saskatchewan Liberal Party and one for the Saskatchewan Progress Party. This would be similar to how there are separate articles for the Yukon Progressive Conservative Party and the Yukon Party. ⁂CountHacker (talk) 21:36, 12 December 2024 (UTC)— Relisting. Me-123567-Me (talk) 17:40, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

• Marghoobur Rahman → Maulana Marghoobur Rahman – (Discuss) – Based on the available English sources, such as Milli Gazette, TwoCircles.net, Hindustan Times, and Radiance Weekly, the name "Maulana Marghoobur Rahman" is predominantly used, aligning with Wikipedia's COMMON NAME policy, which prioritizes the most widely recognized name in reliable sources. Additionally, a search on Google Books confirms that "Maulana Marghoobur Rahman" is extensively used across various books, further reinforcing its suitability for the English title. While the suffix "Bijnori" holds cultural significance in Urdu and is often used to denote his regional identity, it is not commonly found in English sources. Therefore, "Maulana Marghoobur Rahman" is the logical choice for the English Wikipedia title, with "Bijnori" appropriately mentioned within the article to provide context about his origins. If the article were in Urdu, "Marghoobur Rahman Bijnori" would be a more fitting choice. Khaatir (talk) 11:56, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
• John Berry (film director) → John Berry (director) – (Discuss) – This may seem to be an uncontroversial technical request since John Berry (director) redirects to John Berry (film director), rather than to the John Berry disambiguation page, and the standard parenthetical qualifier for film directors is simply "(director)". However, there is an extensive number of men listed on the John Berry dab page and, among them, John Berry (arts administrator) has been a casting director as well as director of theatre and opera programming, while John Berry (ambassador) has served as director of the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. Thus, consensus may prefer retention of the longer qualifier, "(film director)". — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 09:35, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

I don't believe suffragists in the country are primary over suffragists in the state.

• Thalassodrominae → Thalassodromidae – (Discuss) – Basically undoing the previous move above, since supporters of the denomination Thalassodrominae have rejected its use in favor of the denomination Thalassodromidae in order to have consistency with other opposing studies that use Thalassodromidae. Here[40] is said study, by Pêgas and colleagues in 2023. Subsequent studies[41] [42] that follow a tapejaromorph classification for this group, which would traditionally mean the use of Thalassodrominae, have also employed the denomination Thalassodromidae as well.

Over the last 18 months, The American TV series received 190,000 average monthly pageviews, while all the other "The Diplomat" articles combined received 32,000. Of course, this includes spikes of pageviews when the TV series was in the news because of a new season. But, even at its lowest, the American TV series still received 43,000 views while all other articles combined only received 19,000. Full pageview analysis WikiNav clickstream data also shows that 75% of the views on Diplomat (disambiguation) clicked in from The Diplomat (magazine), and 82% of outgoing clicks from Diplomat (disambiguation) were headed to The Diplomat (American TV series). WikiNav analysis I am proposing that The Diplomat (American TV series) is now the primary topic per the criteria at WP:PT1. At the very least, this shows that the news magazine entitled The Diplomat is no longer the primary topic and should be moved; whether or not the American TV series is now the primary is up for debate.

• Cabinet of Germany → Federal Government of Germany – (Discuss) – "Federal Government of Germany" is the natural, precise, concise and above all consistent title. On the other hand, "Cabinet of Germany" is not commonly recognizable and not a title that readers are likely to look or search for if they wanted to find the German government. Furthermore, the current title is colloquial and legally (see Basic Law for the Federal Republic of Germany, sixth section, "VI. The Federal Government") and technically incorrect. The title also differs from all other search engine results on this topic and the official website itself.

I also think it's worth thinking about the title format for the women's division when considering these. But I don't know much about the topics, and haven't found much sourcing for them. The official website seems to use IHL Serie A, IHL Division I and IHL Women (although that site is in Italian, not English). That could potentially justify those titles or other hyphenless formats like Italian Hockey League Serie A, Italian Hockey League Division I and Italian Hockey League Women.

• Bærum mosque shooting → 2019 Bærum murder and mosque shooting – (Discuss) – Pursuant to the discussion above, which no one responded to: I have been wanting to improve this article for two years, since it is entirely stuck in the breaking news aftermath of when it happened instead of the later coverage, but I am frustrated by its scope, which makes it difficult to reflect what non-breaking news sources cover about this case. While all of the breaking coverage focuses on the mosque shooting, later coverage tends to focus both on Ihle-Hansen's murder (see the books, the docuseries, later news coverage) with about equal weight to the mosque attack. This is a problem because there was a separate motive for the killing of his sister, the background for what lead up to this event heavily involves her, and the more severe sentence Manshaus received was for murdering Ihle-Hansen, not for the failed mosque shooting. This is very close to what the Norwegian wikipedia titles its article on this case. I would title it closer to what the books and documentaries do, but they are usually titled after Manshaus's name. I am open to other suggestions as I know this isn't perfect but I do feel that any title for this article needs to not strictly focus it on the mosque event. The year is optional, but according to WP:NCE if an event is not broadly known it should include the year. This event is not widely known outside of Norway, but if people feel otherwise it could be titled Bærum murder and mosque shooting (edit: a better target would be 2019 Bærum murder and mosque attack, as Cameron suggests) PARAKANYAA (talk) 09:57, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
• Leptospermum scoparium → Mānuka – (Discuss) – Per WP:NCFLORA, WP:COMMONNAME and WP:RECOGNISABILITY. WP:NCFLORA states that we should follow usage in reliable sources, and that exceptions to the use of scientific names can be made when a plant has an agricultural, horticultural, economic or cultural role or use that makes it more prominent in some other field than in botany. Mānuka has a massive cultural significance in New Zealand (particularly for Māori) and is known for its honey worldwide. Reliable sources overwhelmingly favour the name Mānuka over the scientific name, with there being three times as many academic results for a search of Mānuka (with or without the macron) compared to the scientific name. Ngrams also show overwhelming preference for Manuka over the scientific name. The use of the macron is proposed for consistency with other conventions for NZ-based articles, where macrons are used when the common name is of Māori origin and correct orthography calls for them.

• 2024 Al-Mustariha massacre → 2024 Turkish airstrikes in Syria – (Discuss) – Consistency. This article should be named like 2024 Homs airstrikes or April 2017 Turkish airstrikes in Syria and Iraq. Because these air strikes are organised for enemy sides of the perpetrator's and some civillians killed in those air strikes. This title means that Turkey only carries out air strike to massacre innocent civilians. However, this airstrike is only one of 191 airstrikes against the SDF-YPG, therefore we cannot seperate this air strike from other 190 air strikes. All of them are carried out within 2024. The content also mentions the death toll from other airstrikes. Also these airstrikes belongs to Hasakah province, Raqqa province and rural Aleppo. This title mentions 11 civilians in Raqqa province but how about other 6 civillian deaths in Hasakah province? If you look at death toll, military personnels also killed besides civillians and this means that Turkish Air Force didn't target civillians especially. Also it's ridiculous to target little amount of civillians in a village. If Turkish Air Force want to kill civillians, bombing big city centers is more efficient way like Israel did in Gaza Strip. Therefore that title is biased and we cannot named this event as a massacre just for killed civillians because more military personnels killed in these air strikes. Seondly, wikipedia there's a village named Mustariha and it's located at Idlib. However news says it's a village in the suburbs of Ain Issa. I cannot find location of the village. It's very interesting. All in all, this article should be moved to "2024 Turkish airstrikes in Syria" However we can use northern Syria but I'm not sure about geographic naming. Note: If the title I propose is appropriate, the content should be revised accordingly, because it gives the impression that the attack was made specifically for this village and targeted especially civillians in this village.--Sabri76'^talk 17:46, 10 December 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 15:10, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
• Eric XIV of Sweden → Erik XIV of Sweden – (Discuss) – Per WP:Commonname and WP:Consistent. The name Erik is more common than Eric in the sources. See Ngrams for the first two: Eric of P., Eric XIV. The third king is the son of King Magnus Eriksson, grandson of Erik Magnusson (duke). Following this pattern, he is commonly called Erik Magnusson (e.g. [52], [53],[54]). However, to distinguish from other Erik Magnussons, disambiguation is needed. IMO, the ahistoric numeral should be avoided if possible (see the footnote in the article). If it cannot be avoided, then I propose Erik XII Magnusson as an alternative, since it at least preserves a resemblance to the common name. Jähmefyysikko (talk) 14:37, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

• First London → First London (1997) – (Discuss) – It may be very early days, but First have just announced they are returning to London operations with the acquisition of RATP Dev's London operations (incorporating Dev Transit London, London United and London Sovereign). Given the scope of the original First operation before it was broken up in 2013, reviving this article for the new operation might be a bridge too far and bound to cause some confusion. As such, unless anyone has a better name proposal for the article, I propose the above move with the option for First London (2025) to incorporate the ex-RATP operations.

• Template:NF → Template:NFLD – (Discuss) – Most Canadian provinces have just one flag template named with the province's two-letter postal abbreviation as the template name; this one is a special case because the province's name was changed from just "Newfoundland" to Newfoundland and Labrador in 2001, necessitating separate "NF" and "NL" templates because the province name next to the (same) flag needs to be two different things based on whether it's a pre-2001 or post-2001 context.
  However, because the Spanish Wikipedia uses the template name "NF" as its basic "formatting the vital statistics of people on biographical articles" (birth year, death year, defaultsort name, etc.) template, there ends up being a constant need to monitor this template for incorrect "vital stats" uses on articles, drafts and user sandbox pages that have been translated or just copy-pasted over from Spanish.
  So because of that extenuating circumstance, I believe that there's a substantive case for treating this template as a special case that varies from the titles of its other provincial siblings to avoid that problem — and since "NF" is an old, no longer used postal abbreviation rather than the current one, the variant won't be nearly as difficult to justify as it would have been if the conflict were affecting "NL".
  Accordingly, I propose that this template use the province's original postal abbreviation "NFLD" instead of the two-letter transitional form "NF", with all of its (thankfully not that many) uses updated to the new name, and "NF" not retained as a redirect so that we stop having to deal with the flag of Newfoundland being wrongly placed at the bottom of Spanish and Mexican and Latin American biographies.
  Alternatively, if there's a way that "NL" could be coded to enable a "Newfoundland and Labrador" vs. "Newfoundland" switch, we could just add that and move all the NF uses to NL-with-switch, but I wouldn't know how to do that (or even if it's possible), although it might even be a better solution than moving this if it is possible.

• Niacin → Nicotinic acid – (Discuss) – As per MOS:MED, substances should use the International Nonproprietary Name (nicotinic acid). Niacin is the United States Adopted Name for nicotinic acid, and it is also an ambiguous term because nutritional institutions use it to refer to all forms of B3 vitamins (nicotinic acid, nicotinamide, nicotinamide riboside). I think Niacin should be a redirect to Vitamin B3, but as there are potential disagreements, it can be a redirect to Niacin (disambiguation) for now and further discussed. We can at least fix the title for this "nicotinic acid" page now, as it is should be easier as it is based on MOS:MED. -- Arthurfragoso (talk) 19:25, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
• Churubusco Jr. - Sr. High School → Churubusco Jr.–Sr. High School – (Discuss) – or simply Churubusco High School (which is more concise and still seems unambiguous and more likely to be the informal common name). This is an expression of a range from Junior High to Senior High, or perhaps a coupling of a Junior High School and a Senior High School. It seems like it should use a dash or ampersand, not a hyphen with spaces on both sides of it. Alternatively, it is also often called simply Churubusco High School. It could also spell the words out ("Junior–Senior") or omit the dots ("Jr–Sr" or "Jr – Sr" or even "Jr-Sr" seems better than what we now have). But a range should not be expressed with a spaced hyphen. (I can't really think of any appropriate use of a spaced hyphen, despite that we have 800+ articles that currently include that.) The school's website has Churubusco Jr-Sr High School and refers to it as Churubusco High School in a caption, and has Churubusco Jr/Sr High School on its sports schedule. There was a previous RM that moved it away from Churubusco High School to its current title in in 2016.

• Gwon Yul → Gwon Yul (general) – (Discuss) – Seems to be a conflict between the two WP:PRIMARYTOPIC criteria. Gwon Yul currently does not meet the criteria for primary topic by usage WP:PT1: of the three ambiguous "Kwon Yul" articles, the army general is last in pageviews. Over the last year, the other two Kwon Yul articles have received an average monthly pageviews of around 15,000, while the army general has received only 1400. [55] However, by WP:PT2 (long term significance), the army general is obviously the primary topic. Given the conflicting criteria, and what seems to be a very large pageview disparity between the army general and the other Kwon Yul articles (army general receiving 10x less traffic), I thought it'd be appropriate to open a discussion to see if the army general is indeed the primary topic or if there is WP:NOPRIMARY here.

Alternatively, it could be moved to Luis de los Santos (third baseman) or Luis de los Santos (baseball, born 1998).

• World Cup Kabaddi → 2019 World Cup Kabaddi (World Kabaddi competition) – (Discuss) – The title gives the impression of an ongoing multi-year series, but the article is only about the event held in 2019. There seems to be three different organisations that organise Kabaddi "World Cup" events, so suggesting disambiguation based on the name of the organisation, which differs slightly from the name of the World Kabaddi Federation, which is a different organisation).

• Capture of Damascus → Capture of Damascus (1918) – (Discuss) – These titles are ambiguous and should point to the dab page Battle of Damascus (as Siege of Damascus already does). The simplest solution is not to haggle over fall/capture but to just append dates. Damascus has fallen/been captured several times on top of these two instances, which are in no way primary topics for these terms. Srnec (talk) 04:27, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

  • Polish minority in Russia → Poles in Russia
• Unknown Archon → ? – (Discuss) – This "Unknown Archon" sounds like this is a proper name, but it's apparently not, this is just uppercase added to a translation of one of the general descriptions used in historiography about this story. The article is a bit of a mess - most of it is the lead section that doesn't actually summarize the body; half the body is a verbatim copy from a 20th-century translation of a 10th-century primary source, and then there's a few paragraphs which kind of say yeah none of this stuff in the lead is necessarily true true. So I don't really know if there's a good name for this topic, or if this small amount of context has potential - should it just be merged into a more general article?

• LGBTQ topics in Chile → LGBTQ people in Chile – (Discuss) – # For the current page (LGBTQ topics in Chile), there are two pages we can move: LGBTQ people in Chile, consistent with Talk:LGBTQ people in Mexico#Merge proposal, or LGBTQ in Chile, which is a mix of WP:CONSUB and WP:STATUSQUO. # I'm also asking to retarget either (see exclusive or) LGBT in Chile to LGBTQ in Chile (dab), if this page is kept to keep it consistent, or LGBTQ in Chile to the current page, per WP:STATUSQUO, WP:BROAD, and consistency, if this page is moved. * Context: Lewisguile moved this page (formerly LGBT in Chile under WP:CONSUB reasoning, however LGBT page was never moved to LGBTQ topics, just LGBTQ. 10 days later I created LGBT in Chile (disambiguation) and moved it to LGBTQ in Chile (disambiguation) to leave that as a redirect, however LGBTQ in Chile didn't exist and it was moved per WP:MALPLACED dab in a clean up edit. Then I asked a speedy rename (I should have specified WP:UNDOMOVE but for me it was pretty clear and simple that there was inconsistency) which turned into a RM. * Comments: However, just as noted in Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2024 September 26#LGBT in Mexico (see also the USA section there) and constantly argued by Raladic in all recent RMs, this issue should be talked about in WT:LGBTQ+, but I beg it different, each place ("Foos" in wiki jargon) should be treated differently. Examples: Poland and Israel AfDs resulted in redirect to the "LGBT history in Foo", while California AfD resulted in redirect to "LGBTQ rights in Foo" (see also WP:2DABS). Not every 'culture' or 'rights' article is structurally substantial enough when compared to an 'history' article for example, and vis-à-vis. Using LGBTQ as a noun is also debatable, similarly Category:Transgender was recently moved to Category:Transgender topics because of this. There's also an ongoing RM: Talk:LGBT history in Georgia#Proposed merge of LGBT rights in Georgia into LGBT history in Georgia and Talk:LGBTQ topics in Singaporean literature#Requested move 24 November 2024. And there are more undiscussed articles: LGBTQ in Guatemala and LGBTQ in Puerto Rico. Whether they are grammatically correct or not, they are obviously ambiguous and that's why a DAB is justified. However, if the BROAD article lists all the DAB already lists, then could a merge be made? I guess it would depend of the WP:SIZE or its navigationability. An RfC can be opened, but I think this discussion deserves a closer look. --MikutoH ^talk! 04:08, 24 November 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 04:49, 1 December 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Feeglgeef (talk) 02:57, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

• Larries → Larry Stylinson – (Discuss) – Since it's been almost two and a half years since the no consensus close of the previous move request, I thought it might be time to bring this discussion back up again. A good article title is consistent, and all the conspiracy theory articles that I have examined (see Category:Conspiracy theories) use the title of the theory, not the believers. For example, there is no anti-vaxxer article; there is only a Anti-vaccine activism article. There is no Flat-earther article; there is only a Modern flat Earth beliefs article. Other ships (see Category:Slash fiction) also use the name of the ship, not the fandom, albeit this is a unique topic in that it is about real people. In the last discussion, I heard that this article is somehow different in that the scholarship is more about the believers than the theory, but that isn't exactly true. For one, there is also scholarship documenting the actual theory. But also, the psychology of the believers is also central to other conspiracy theory articles (e.g. Modern flat Earth beliefs § Sociological explanations for counterfactual beliefs), which all still use the name of the theory. Additionally, "Larry Stylinson" is certainly more precise. "Larries" could potentially refer to multiple "Larry"s or "Larrie"s, or, as the ngram viewer shows, industrial/mining equipment. Although one could argue that the ship is the more common interpretation, it certainly hasn't been historically (and we aim to avoid WP:RECENTISM), and changing the title to "Larry Stylinson" would remove all possible ambiguity.

• North Yemen Civil War → North Yemen civil war – (Discuss) – Sources don't consistently capitalize "civil war" on this one, though there's a trend toward more capitalization since WP moved it to the currently capped title in 2006.

The article was moved to "Assassination of" without discussion, flip-flopped a few times, and has been at this stable title since 2011. No evidence that "Assassination of" is more prominently used in reliable sources. Per WP:DEATHS, in the absence of a clear WP:COMMONNAME, "Murder of" is the preferred title. 162 etc. (talk) 17:32, 27 November 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 12:07, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

• Stadion Miejski (Białystok) → Białystok Municipal Stadium – (Discuss) – I am submitting this request to revert the article title of the stadium in Białystok to its previous title, Białystok Municipal Stadium in light of recent actions by the user FromCzech. The move to the Polish-language title Stadion Miejski (Białystok) was made unilaterally and appears inconsistent with Wikipedia's guidelines, specifically WP:UE. This guideline encourages the use of English translations where appropriate to maintain accessibility for the global readership. FromCzech has argued for the name change without prior discussion, potentially as a reaction to a naming debate on Lokotrans Aréna that I initiated. This recent move does not reflect a consensus, and it also disrupts the established consistency within the "Football venues in Poland" category, where nearly all stadium names are translated into English. Notable examples include Father Władysław Augustynek Stadium, Gdynia Municipal Stadium, Kielce Municipal Stadium, and Raków Municipal Stadium. I urge that the title "Białystok Municipal Stadium" be restored to uphold Wikipedia’s principles of consistency and transparency, while also preventing this matter from being affected by personal disputes or editing motivated by anything other than Wikipedia's editorial standards.

• Keiki-dō → Keiki Province – (Discuss) – I think "Provinces" may be more appropriate, but still not sure. I moved all the other Korea prefecture pages from "-dō" to " Prefecture" following the category name, but @robertsky pointed out " Province" may be more appropriate. "Prefecture" has kind of a loose definition, per Prefecture and Prefectures of Japan. The nature of prefectures in various countries differs; it's not really clear to me how these differ from provinces, esp given that colonial Korea was governed differently from Japan. Both "prefecture" and "province" seem to be variously attested to for Korean provinces (as well as the use of transliterations of Korean names for Korean places during the colonial period). English terminology for Korean history is notoriously inconsistent. Reading Prefectures of Japan, it seems like "道" is also used for prefectures, but that doesn't necessarily guarantee that it would extend to Korea. Provinces of Japan seems to suggest that Japan itself adopted the prefecture system in the late 19th century, but that doesn't necessarily cover Korea. However, recent RS on the colonial period seem to use "province" for this period (although these all seem to write from Korea-centric perspectives; using Korean-language terms for concepts during the colonial period). * [57] * [58] * [59] * [60] Edit: more sources (see below for my analysis of the situation) * [61] * [62] * [63] * [64] *[65] * [66] (this book uses Korean names for concepts that existed before the colonial period, including the provinces, and Japanese names for everything created during) In short, I think there's a WP:COMMONNAME argument to use "Province" instead of "Prefecture". Either of the two is certainly better than the previous "-dō". seefooddiet (talk) 05:25, 17 November 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 07:25, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
