Uncontroversial technical requests
- Supracallosal gyrus (currently a redirect to Indusium griseum) → Indusium griseum (move · discuss) – Wrongly thought out previous move (by this editor) - new title more usual ngrams and google search; TA name; new title more descriptive more apt than gyrus Iztwoz (talk) 21:59, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
- Caylus (disambiguation) (currently a redirect to Caylus) → Caylus (move · discuss) – no dominant meaning Aymatth2 (talk) 16:00, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
- Kukës Airport Zayed ibn Sultan Al Nahyan (currently a redirect to Kukës International Airport Zayed) → Kukës Airport Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan (currently a redirect instead to Kukës International Airport Zayed) (move · discuss) – Misspelled the airport name during the initial move. Proof of name given at Civil Aviation Authority (Albania)'s website Potrone (talk) 16:16, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
- Niño de Acero (currently a redirect to Acero) → Acero (move · discuss) – Has been known as "Acero" since 2012, is his common name but the redirect is in the way. MPJ-DK 00:50, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
- Evergreen Point Floating Bridge (2016) (currently a redirect to Evergreen Point Floating Bridge) → Evergreen Point Floating Bridge (move · discuss) – Made a small mistake while moving the 1963 bridge to its current page. The old bridge is demolished and there is almost no continuing coverage, so WP:PRIMARYTOPIC prevails, despite the result of the short move discussion two years ago.
