Uncontroversial technical requests
- User:DrVogel/Residual volume (currently a redirect to Residual volume) → Residual volume (move · discuss) – there's a redirect from 18 years ago blocking the way. Thanks for your help! Dr. Vogel (talk) 16:10, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
Contested technical requests
- Khamir (city) (currently a redirect to Khamir) → Khamir (move · discuss) – There is no other Khamir. Thepharoah17 (talk) 04:16, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per Khamir (disambiguation). AllegedlyHuman (talk) 04:27, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose and see no need to push on to RM, think Thepharoah17 has simply made a mistake. "Quake jolts Persian Gulf port city of Khamir in southern Iran" etc. @AllegedlyHuman: there should however be a move of (city) to Khamir, Yemen given that Khamir in Iran is also a city.

- The Foxes (currently a redirect to Foxes (disambiguation)) → The Foxes (band) (move · discuss) – WP:NOPRIMARY, see The Foxes (painting) 162 etc. (talk) 23:41, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
- Support but because "The Foxes" to most UK football fans will mean Leicester City FC, not because of the painting. Band seems barely notable, but a RM is probably in order. In ictu oculi (talk) 12:30, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
