Exogenous and endogenous variables → Endogeneity (economics) – The current title does not make it clear that this article is about the concept in economic theory, to be contrasted with Endogeneity (econometrics), which is about the related (but distinct) concept in econometrics. Changing the title to parallel the econometrics article directly, with hatnotes going both ways, will make it clearer what the article is about.

- Comment There are incoming links at the target about both the econometric and economic concepts. The ones about econometrics will have to be retargeted if this RM succeeds, but there aren't that many of them. Wikiacc (¶) 17:07, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
- Withdraw nomination On further examination, the econometrics article is where it is because "endogeneity", as a phenomenon, can be thought of as a "problem" or a "threat to identification". There is no corresponding phenomenon in economic theory. Therefore, "endogeneity (economics)" is not the right term. I'll instead boldly turn endogeneity (economics) into a disambiguation page.
