Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests

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:..."

If you are here because you want an admin to approve of your new article or your proposed page move, you are in the wrong place. If this is your first article and you want your draft article moved to the subst:submit}} to the top of the draft or user sandbox page instead of listing it here. Because you are autoconfirmed, you can move most pages yourself. Do not request technical assistance on this page if you can do it yourself. If you need help determining whether it's okay to move the page to a different title, then please follow the instructions at the top of Wikipedia:Requested moves.

• List of Beyblade: Shogun Steel episodes → Beyblade: Shogun Steel (TV series) (move · discuss) – To be consistent with Beyblade: Metal Fusion season 1, Beyblade: Metal Masters, and Beyblade: Metal Fury. 2A01:5A8:30D:955E:992F:5F07:7B08:F0D2 (talk) 18:23, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • If I may ask, despite the different regional titling or titles, why add a disambiguator for "consistency"? If anything at all, I'd rather go for a merge into Beyblade: Shogun Steel in case that article ain't big or fleshy enough. Intrisit (talk) 15:06, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would rather it be at just Beyblade: Shogun Steel but there is already a page with that name. My point was that the title should not contain "List of ...... episodes" and should just be the season name like the other seasons. Also, I was originally going to go with (TV season) rather than (TV series), but I went with (TV series) because I saw Inazuma Eleven GO: Chrono Stone (TV series) and Inazuma Eleven GO: Galaxy (TV series) which are also articles about individual seasons that use the (TV series) disambiguation.--2A01:5A8:30D:955E:A8D7:5815:93A2:C0E2 (talk) 16:25, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Another consideration is whether the manga or the series is the

primary topic, and whichever that is should be at the root (not disambiguated) title. In this case, the pageviews are almost the same for both so the primary topic may be unclear. In that case disambiguation would be preferable with the root Beyblade: Shogun Steel being a disambiguation page (or just two hatnotes), but that's often a matter for discussion. The current title avoids this issue entirely because it has a different scope, but changing the title might demand that we evaluate this as well. ASUKITE 16:59, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply

The manga is not even called Beyblade: Shogun Steel, only the anime season is. Though renaming it to the manga name would be inconsistent with Beyblade: Metal Fusion where only the first season of the anime is called Beyblade: Metal Fusion while the manga series is called Metal Fight Beyblade. Tbh, I am not sure why Beyblade: Shogun Steel even warrants a separate page from Beyblade: Metal Fusion as it is in the same universe and it still has "Metal Fight Beyblade" and the manga for Seasons 2 and 3 also have their own subtitles, "Metal Fight Beyblade: Baku" and "Metal Fight Beyblade: 4D" and although it features a different cast of characters, so do most of the Beyblade Burst series. But apparently it is considered a "separate manga" according to this user. I do not know much about the manga, only the anime, so I have no idea if it being a "separate manga" is true or not, but whether it should be separate or not is a topic for another discussion. --2A01:5A8:30D:955E:A8D7:5815:93A2:C0E2 (talk) 17:20, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• MRT Line 5 (Dhaka Metro Rail) → MRT Line 5 (currently a redirect back to MRT Line 5 (Dhaka Metro Rail)) (move · discuss) – since there is another mrt line 5 there is no need for the clarificaion of the transit system Uss157 (talk) 04:06, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  This is a case similar to UK parliamentary constituencies where I think a disaambuator may be good for consistency and clarity even if its not strictly necessary in this case. The manila metro also has MRT lines, so saying which each one is aids recognition.  — Amakuru (talk) 08:14, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• MOS:CAPS - not consistently capped in sources per JSTOR and google scholar. Cinderella157 (talk) 01:46, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply

  As with the Apache wars below, the capped form is heavily favoured in sources.[1] And forget Google Scholar we don't use that in such discussions.  — Amakuru (talk) 08:05, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  This one isn't necessarily clear cut. Unusually, Sources have been trending away from the lowercase version recently, and it's probably about on the border of whether it's "consistently capitalised in a siginifacnt majority of sources" at present.[2] Also, we never use Google scholar for assessing titles, we're a general encyclopedia not a specialist organ.  — Amakuru (talk) 08:03, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Perhaps you never use Google Scholar in RMs. Books are not the only reliable independent sources. SilverLocust 💬 08:32, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Mainland Travel Permit for Hong Kong and Macao Residents → Mainland Travel Permit for Hong Kong and Macau Residents (currently a redirect back to Mainland Travel Permit for Hong Kong and Macao Residents) (move · discuss) – Articles relating to Macau/Macao have been extremely confusingly titled on Wikipedia, most (non-company) articles makes more sense with the "Macau" spelling because that is simply the more common English language name (and is on >50% of Wikipedia articles anyway) so I believe this article is no exception and it fits better being renamed to Macau rather than its current title of Macao Josethewikier (talk) 09:29, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  The fact that there is a mixture of spelling on Wikipedia is evidence that there is disagreement about it, which is evident in prior RMs and Talk page discussions for Macau. Ngram analysis disagrees with your assertion that "Macau" is the more popular spelling in English. The desire to improve consistency, while a laudable goal, does not seem completely uncontroversial. Apparently the official government spelling in English is "Macao", and this article is about a document issued by the government, so perhaps its title should retain the government's official spelling.

  A similar document with an associated article recently moved by the nominator is shown here, and the name of the document is written in English on its cover, and clearly uses the government official spelling, so an article about the document should probably not casually differ from the title of the document itself.

  The nominator has been making a lot of bold moves and spelling changes – sometimes with misleading edit summaries. For example, they renamed an article and changed the spelling in the article about a Canadian government office in a way that is contrary to the way the Canadian government spells the name of its own office in English!

  @Thatonebowserfan; this technical request has been contested and thus requires a formal Requested Move discussion. You can start one by clicking "discuss" in your request. You can remove this request after opening a discussion (or if you do not want to continue). Sennecaster (Chat) 14:38, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
