* ''([[Talk:Óscar Montalbán Ramos#Requested move 25 May 2020 |Discuss]])'' – '''[[:Óscar Montalbán Ramos]] → {{no redirect|Rubio (footballer)}}''' – [[WP:COMMONNAME]] is just "Rubio", doesn't use full legal name professionally. As far as I could see, he's the only footballer that goes by the mononym "Rubio", but this could also be moved to [[Rubio (footballer, born 1976)]] if further disambiguation is required.

  • (Discuss)Normandy landingsD-Day – Per WP:COMMONNAME. The number of Google search results, terms quoted, for "Normandy landings" (655,000) are vastly outnumbered by the results for "D-Day" (33,300,000), and seeing as that term's a bit vague "D-Day" "normandy" (9,780,000), and still even completely narrowing it down "D-Day" "France" "world war" "Normandy" (2,230,000). I think it is clear which name is the most common. Yes, there can be some ambiguity, but that's why we have {{For}}. sam1370 (talk / contribs) 06:50, 15 May 2020 (UTC) Relisting. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:36, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • (Discuss)Chiller (TV channel)Chiller (TV network) – Per WP:NCBC which follows the definitions of television network ("a central operation (that) provides programming to many television stations or pay television providers") and television channel ("a terrestrial frequency or virtual number over which a television station or television network is distributed"). As such, the disambiguator "(TV channel)" is largely deprecated on Wikipedia (WP:NCBC#Channels). For confirmation in this specific case, Chiller identified themselves as a network[5][6][7] as did industry sources.[8][9] -- Netoholic @ 07:23, 25 May 2020 (UTC) (edited)[reply]

  • (Discuss)Chikkamagaluru.Chikmagalur – There is a full stop in this article name that shouldn't be there. It should be moved to either Chikmagalur (commonly-used English name) or Chikkamagaluru (official name). It looks as though the 2014 discussions about moving from Chikmagalur to Chikkamagaluru didn't result in a consensus to move the page, but we may come up with a different answer today. I don't feel strongly either way. Tom Radulovich (talk) 16:18, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • (Discuss)Inayati OrderInayatiyya – This organization has recently officially changed its name from the Inayati Order to the Inayatiyya. The April newsletter states "Discussions in recent days between the International Board, the boards of various countries, the Message Council, the Astana, and myself have culminated in the agreement that now is the time to conclusively take up the name the Inayatiyya."

  • (Discuss)Bir Mangoli SainianBir Mangaoli – The title should have been Bir Mangaoli, as there is just one village with this name in the Kurukshetra district: see the official details from Indian government here (archived link: [13]) or search in the District Census Handbook of Kurukshetra. In fact, there is not any village named Bir Mangoli Sainian in India, let alone in Haryana state: one can search the official records at here. So it should be moved to Bir Mangaoli without leaving a redirect. Note that the inexperienced article creator is an SPA who has added unsourced/OR claims about Saini caste in various articles, and the addition of unsourced Sainian bit in this article's title seems like an attempt to promote Sainis. One can check the original version of the article here: it is full of Saini-related unsourced claims. PS: The page can be titled either Bir Mangaoli or Bir Mangoli, but the former is not only the official name but also the common name, as it appears in four other reliable sources, while the latter one appears in just two such sources.

  • (Discuss)Michel RivardMichel Rivard (musician) – Procedural nomination, because I had to revert an undiscussed arbitrary page move. This page has stood at the plain undisambiguated title Michel Rivard since the day it was first created in 2005, but within the past 24 hours it was arbitrarily moved to Michel Rivard (musician), with no evidence of any discussion to establish a consensus for that, on the grounds that a musician is not more important than a politician. But establishing a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC is not a question of assessing the relative importance-in-principle of the two Michel Rivards' roles — it's a question of assessing their respective fame-in-reality among the general public. Of course, I'm willing to respect wherever consensus lands — but this is strictly a procedural nomination because I reverted an undiscussed page move, and is not meant to be interpreted as support, because I don't believe that there's even a question as to which Michel Rivard is more famous in the real world.

  • (Discuss)RatsasanRaatchasan – This is the correct English transliteration of the word demon from Tamil. Several noted sourcs including The Hindu[1] and Deccan Chronicle[2][3][4] refer to the film by this name.

  • (Discuss)Archduke Sigismund, Grand Duke of TuscanyArchduke Sigismund of Austria (born 1966) – While the name he uses in "real" life appears to be Sigismund von Habsburg Lothringen (it is the name used by the Charities Commission[15], Companies House[16] and it would seem from the limited view available on scotlandspeople.gov.uk on the Scottish birth certificates of his children), this was not supported by the previous requested move. However, the previous requested move did not support the current article title either. We need some means of disambiguating him from the other Sigismunds, while retaining consistency with other members of his immediate family. DrKay (talk) 13:12, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • (Discuss)Erling Braut HålandErling Haaland – There's a couple major reasons to change this page name, which I'll highlight below. The footballer is internationally known by this spelling of his name, and I think Wikipedia is a little behind the ball. 1. WP:NAMECHANGES - there is solid evidence that he has changed his last name from Håland to Haaland to appeal to international markets, some sources: The Guardian, ESPN, The Local (Norway). Most new articles follow this new spelling, and therefore as per WP:NAMECHANGES the page name should be updated to reflect. He changed his name before exploding in popularity, so most users should be familiar with his name as Erling Haaland. 2. WP:ENGLISH - As per the above, the "anglicized" spelling of his name is Haaland which is highlighted in the lead of his page. Most English references use this spelling. In fact, almost all references in all languages use this spelling of his name - including his native Norwegian. 3. WP:COMMONNAME - his common name is Erling Haaland. His Borussia Dortmund, Bundesliga, Instagram, Twitter, Fox Sports, and most other major external links list him as Erling Haaland. This by itself should be a reason to change the page name. Google news has 4.3 million pages with "Erling Haaland", versus 192k for "Erling Braut Håland" In conclusion, I think it's due time to change the page name. Overwhelming WP policy points to the name of the page being Erling Haaland. Ortizesp (talk) 16:29, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • (Discuss)Palazzo Soranzo PisaniPalazzo Tiepoletto – This building has been in the Passi family since Arduzio Enrico Matteo Passi, my great-grandfather (deceased 1945), inherited it from his mother, Giulia Valier, who had inherited it from her mother, Caterina Tiepolo. We have always known it as Palazzo Tiepoletto. HOWEVER, there are multiple errors involving the names of building to the immediate right of this one and the one on the immediate left. I have no bibliography with me right now, as I still cannot access my library in Venice because of travel restrictions. I propose editing all three pages in the near future. Shunyacetas (talk) 16:49, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • (Discuss)Technical University of BerlinTechnische Universität Berlin – This subject has been voted in the past, but most people rejecting the change do so, arguing on incorrect facts (e.g. "This is the English wikipedia and the English name or English translation should be used" or "the university uses the English name). The university's only name is Technische Universität Berlin. And the university explicitily states both in internal and external communication that no translation into English is acceptable. For intance: https://www.tu-berlin.de/servicemenue/impressum. Der Name "Technische Universität Berlin" wird nicht ins Englische übersetzt. (eng: The name "Technische Universität Berlin" will not be translated into English). The name "Technical University of Berlin" is simply a free translation and it has never been used or accepted by the university (employees are even encouraged to correct the wrong translation). SFBB (talk) 10:30, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • (Discuss)Yang XiuqiongYeung Sau-king – 1. 'Yeung Sau-king' was likely the English name that Ms. Yeung called herself. 2. A large number of contemporary sources including numerous newspaper articles (see a small number of newspaper articles here:[1] and the official 1936 Olympics report used 'Yeung Sau-king'. It is analogous to using 'Sun Yat-sen' and not 'Sun Yixian' to refer to the first provisional president of the Republic of China. 3. 'Yeung Sau-king' was used in some important books in the subject matter, including 'A Quest for Gold' (ISBN 9789622097667), 'Sport in Asian Society' (ISBN 9781135760434), etc. 4. The name in Pinyin 'Yang Xiuqiong' is artificial and does not help facilitate further research. It was used in some post-2007 publications due to the authors' lack of knowledge of her English name, and/or the need to conform to some artificial style guides.

  • (Discuss)Declared death in absentiaPresumption of death – "Presumption of death" is the common term, as seen in the United States Code[17]and the Presumption of Death Act 2013 in the UK[18]. As far as I can see, none of the sources used in the article use the term "death in absentia". As discussed previously, there is reason to believe that the term is nonsense and the examples of its use are citogenesis. The Law.com Dictionary has a definition, but that dictionary is not reliable as it invites readers to add their own definitions. The current Black's Law Dictionary does not use the term. I have also searched the Lexis Nexis and Westlaw databases and can find no evidence that it is commonly used. Jack Upland (talk) 23:03, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • (Discuss)Warren "Oak" FelderOak Felder – This article was recently moved on the strength of one article, which refers to him as "Oak" Felder in the headline, once as Warren "Oak" Felder in the text and otherwise as Oak (as in Oak says). It appears to me that there is not sufficient evidence from the sole article to support the move, nor am I aware that there is any reason that his familiar name is not simply Oak Felder Richhoncho (talk) 12:25, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • (Discuss)Carnival VictoryCarnival Radiance – Request to changed the name from Carnival Victory to Carnival Radiance because Carnival Cruise Line is changing it’s name to Carnival Radiance. BigRed606 02:06, 18 May 2020 (UTC) BigRed606 02:06, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

  • (Discuss)Fanny MendelssohnFanny Mendelssohn Hensel – Well, here goes. I believe that this title is more appropriate than the present one, and as there is no consensus for "Fanny Hensel" I would now support this option. I shan't go over the arguments again: they are all set out in extenso in the previous discussion. In closing that discussion , King of ♥ notes that there is no clear consensus either for the present name or for "Fanny Hensel" but that "Fanny Mendlessohn Hensel" (with or without hyphen) was put forward in various comments as an acceptable compromise. This would mean (and I agree here with Francis Schonken) that the first line would need to be something like " Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel (14 November 1805 – 14 May 1847), born Fanny Mendelssohn, baptized Fanny Cäcilie Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1816), and, after marriage (1829), Fanny Hensel, was a German composer and pianist from the Romantic era. She grew up..." I would specifically argue against the hyphen since "Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel" can be understood as a portmanteau of both of her surnames, whereas the form "Mendelssohn-Hensel" was never used by her or anybody else during or after her lifetime and it is unclear in what circumstances or for what reasons it was ever coined.

  • (Discuss)Togwon StationSegil Station – Segil Station is NOT on Songdowon Line, but on Kangwon Line. It is obvious that Togwon Station, between Wonsan and Munchon Station, has been renamed into Segil Station per below: # From recent map of railway in North Korea, you can find ⊙원산(Wonsan) at the center of the map and you can see that 세길(Segil) is between 문천(Munchon) and 원산. [23] ## From Kokubu, Hayato, 将軍様の鉄道 (Shōgun-sama no Tetsudō, published in 2007), it was 덕원(Togwon) [24] # From the 2015 video at 11:33, you can see the sign on the platform saying 옥평(Ongpyong)-문천(Munchon)-세길(Segil). [25] # According to 조선향토대백과, an encyclopedia co-written by South and North Korea, 덕원동(Togwon-dong) was renamed into 세길동(Segil-dong) in 1977. [26] 오모군 (talk) 20:33, 2 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
