Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests

Shortcuts

If you are unable to complete a move for technical reasons, you can request technical help below. This is the correct method if you tried to move a page, but you got an error message saying something like "You do not have permission to move this page, for the following reasons:..." or "The/This page could not be moved, for the following reason:..."

To list a technical request: edit the Uncontroversial technical requests subsection and insert the following code at the bottom of the list, filling in pages and reason:
{{subst:RMassist|current page title|new title|reason=reason for move}}
This will automatically insert a bullet and include your signature. Please do not edit the article's talk page.
If you object to a proposal listed in the uncontroversial technical requests section, please move the request to the Contested technical requests section, append a note on the request elaborating on why, and sign with ~~~~. Consider pinging the requester to let them know about the objection.
If your technical request is contested, or if a contested request is left untouched without reply, create a requested move on the article talk and remove the request from the section here. The fastest and easiest way is to click the "discuss" button at the request, save the talk page, and remove the entry on this page.

Fall River Marksmen (currently a redirect to Fall River F.C. (1922–1931)) → Fall River F.C. (currently a redirect instead to Fall River F.C. (1932)) (move · discuss) – There is a previously moved article called Fall River F.C. that has been moved to Fall River F.C. (1932). So the redirect is currently occupied preventing Fall River Marksmen moving there. -- Libro0 (talk) 04:41, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply

Hi, would you please be able to show evidence that the club from the 1920's should be at the base title, while the one from the 1930's should have a disambiguator? As opposed to, for example, a dabpage at the base title? Dr. Vogel (talk) 08:43, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure I can provide evidence to that effect. I can provide countless references to what the team's official name is. The other team played a season in 1932 and was significantly less notable. I can provide citations in their respective articles. It would help me to organize these articles which need more attention. The 1920's team was quite notable and had the name much longer. This information is shown in these articles. Titling articles with nicknames should be avoided because I have renamed an article that had a totally erroneous nickname while other teams have had several nicknames over different periods.

DrVogel do you want to contest this move? -Kj cheetham (talk) 10:11, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I left it here because I'm on the fence and I wanted to see more opinions. My gut feeling with this one is that a dabpage or even a merge would be better than moving one of the 2 clubs to the base title, but I could be persuaded either way. Dr. Vogel (talk) 13:05, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Given we're not sure, this probably needs a full

wp:commonname. "economics" is used in virtually all RS, very few use "effect". Only 1 RS in use on the article uses "effect". HC (talk) 20:54, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply

This ngram would suggest that the current title is marginally the common name. So I don't think this is Uncontroversial. Cheers — Amakuru (talk) 07:47, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose: This seems to be an
WP:ENGVAR matter. Apparently, "enrolment" is the British spelling and "enrollment" is the American spelling. This is discussed explicitly at American and British English spelling differences § Doubled in American English. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 16:58, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply

Colombo International Airport, Ratmalana (currently a redirect to Ratmalana Airport) → Ratmalana International Airport (currently a redirect instead to Ratmalana Airport) (move · discuss) – Current title is not the most common one and it's also conflicting with the main international airport in Colombo 2001:878:0:E000:82:E2:A1:33 (talk) 08:44, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply

Although I agree with you that the title you're proposing makes more sense than the actual name of the airport, that's the name supported by all the sources. And the move you're referring to was done 10 years ago. Dr. Vogel (talk) 20:19, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In addition, there was another move last year. This is a
