- (Discuss) – Cruis'n (series) → Cruis'n – Series article has the same title as Cruis'n (video game). The series article should be the primary term since WP:NCVGDAB states: "If a video game series has a naming conflict solely with the first game in the series (e.g., Final Fantasy), the series page should reside at the primary name if the series possesses a minimum of 3 video game articles as well as at least one other unrelated video game or related media item." This series has 6 games (5 of them have their own articles). Mika1h (talk) 19:42, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Hilton Worldwide → Hilton – As part of my ongoing work, I would like to move the article to the new official name of the company, as it announced a corporate name change - "Hilton Announces $1 Billion Stock Repurchase Program, Quarterly Dividend and Corporate Name Change" [1]. Please let me know if you have any questions. Valgetova (talk) 15:38, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – 10000000 (number) → 10,000,000 – Hard to tell how many zeroes are in the present title, also unnecessary (number) dab. See 100,000,000 and 1,000,000,000. Fish567 (talk) 14:16, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Untitled Han Solo film → ? – Untitled Han Solo film may give a false impression to those who are not familiar with the Star Wars franchise. It's technically incorrect to dub this as a 'Han Solo film'. Normally, we call a project 'Untitled Steven Spielberg film', 'Untitled David Fincher film', 'Untitled Martin Scorsese film' and so on. Han Solo is not the name of the director of this film. Thus I suggest re-titling it. Untitled Star Wars spin-off or even Untitled Han Solo spin-off would be appropriate.

- (Discuss) – Lauren Townsend (footballer) → Lauren Townsend – Lauren Townsend is currently a redirect to the Columbine HS massacre, because it was the name of one of the victims; however, that Lauren Townsend doesn't actually have an article and doesn't appear notable. Since this is the only article by this name on Wikipedia, a hatnote will suffice. Nohomersryan (talk) 23:58, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Vehicle door → Door (car) – This article talks about car doors and makes no mention of bus/train/plane doors, therefore the title "vehicle doors" is misleading. Parenthetical disambiguation is consistent with Hood (car) and Trunk (car). — Train2104 (t • c) 22:49, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

The article is named "Kanlaon Volcano" but the single name is used for the head sentence. The term "Mount Kanlaon" is used elsewhere in the article.

William is short for Willie (at Willie O'Dea - an Irish member of parliament) and I think it would be better to have the disambiguation page at William O'Dea. The current primary topic is a Hudson County freeholder and I don't think that's highly notable to become the primary topic. The other subject is an Irish republican who is known in Ireland. In short, I propose this page be disambiguated and the disambiguation page be at the main title. All the best, st170e 17:20, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Buddhist apocrypha → Post-canonical Buddhist texts – The latest edit Special:PermanentLink/766494466 by SOHAN18 brought home to me the problems with this article's title. Although I am not an expert with regard to Mahayana Buddhism, in modern Theravada studies terms like apocrypha are hardly used anymore, scholars preferring post-canonical or vernacular instead, depending on the types of texts. Apocrypha implies a lack of authenticity, and might therefore go against WP:NEUTRAL. What is an authentic work and what not was usually a matter of debate in most of Buddhist history, and I doubt whether there ever were any works vehemently and unanimously opposed as was the case with the Roman Christian Church, from which the term apocrypha originates. Authenticity in Buddhism has usually been something which comes in many shades. Propose move as specified. S Khemadhammo (talk) 19:19, 20 February 2017 (UTC)

Marvelous USA has two divisions, XSeed Games, which is the name on a bunch of relevant games with Wikipedia articles, and Marvelous Online, a non-notable custodian of dying and irrelevant browser MMORPGs that don't generally have Wikipedia articles - with the one exception, Shin Megami Tensei: Imagine, but that's dead now, and Marvelous Online only managed its last two years. I'm not even sure if they're still doing it, their website (which, granted, WAS moved to Marvelous USA) doesn't list any of the Online games, only XSEED's games.

- (Discuss) – Empress Shōshi → Fujiwara no Shōshi – The main title, "Empress Shoshi", is technically incorrect and cannot be considered accurate from a historical point of view. Wikipedia should not perpetuate incorrect forms. According to WP:MOS-JP (which is a guideline for Japan-related articles) for the Japanese emperors and empresses we should use the form [[Emperor/Empress {name}]], which is a partial translation of their posthumous names. On posthumous names not all the empresses have them, as some of those names have been either lost or changed throughout the history. If any of the 諡号 shigō (posthumous name) or 追号 tsuigō (another form of posthumous name) names of an empress is known then it can be used, for example Tachibana no Kachiko who can also be called by her posthumous name "Empress Danrin". Otherwise, like many other ancient empresses, Shoshi should be styled as Fujiwara no Shoshi, as I can't find a posthumous name for her except "Jōtōmon-in" but she's never been commonly known as "Empress Jōtōmon-in" in sources, which can be realized by a single Google search [1] & [2]. She was first Empress, then Grand Empress, then Senior Grand Empress, and then an Imperial Lady — but she was Fujiwara no Shōshi all along. I had discussed it with Japanese Wikipedians a long time ago and they said "Posthumous names for Empresses were disappeared in late Asuka-Nara period (上代, 6-8 century), and Nyoin name (女院) started to be used instead". Furthermore they noted that Nyoin names aren't in use today anymore. It can obviously be seen on Wikipedia that almost all the articles about ancient Japanese empresses are titled "Clan name" 'no' "name". This page shouldn't be an exception. (it also makes it a WP:CONSISTENT move). Keivan.fTalk 04:59, 11 February 2017 (UTC) Relisted. Jenks24 (talk) 07:31, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

Nearly all other affiliated topics have already been moved from "STAR" to "Star" (see Talk:Star Jalsha and the various topics listed in Template:STAR, which I think all have "Star" names except these). Disambiguation is also desirable, as various other topics are listed at the dab pages at Star TV and STAR 1. —BarrelProof (talk) 17:06, 18 February 2017 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Pride Week (Toronto) → Pride Toronto – While this move was rejected in an RM discussion in 2010, and then suggested again in 2012 without being addressed either way (see unheadlined comment by Smckinnon at the bottom of the QUAIA section above), there's been a significant change as of 2016 that warrants revisiting the proposal: in 2016, although the primary community festival still took place in the final week leading up to the parade itself, Pride as a whole was not declared as just that week, but for the entirety of June. The final week was still the biggest locus of activity, but the flag-raising kickoff at Nathan Phillips Square was held on May 31 and declared Pride Month rather than Pride Week ([5]), and a program of Pride-related events was scheduled throughout the entire month of June rather than being confined solely to the week of the main community festival alone ([6]). And while certainly stuff could change between now and June, that is currently what's expected to happen again this year. So, rather than quibbling over whether the event is "Pride Week" or "Pride Month", I believe the best course of action here is now to move the article to the title Pride Toronto. ("Pride Week" and "Pride Month" can still be retained as redirects, so that a person who's expecting one of those titles will still get here.) I would also note that the idea that this article is about the event rather than the organization, which is what was proffered in the original RM discussion as a reason not to move the article, isn't all that convincing an argument — the article, as written, is somewhat of a hybrid of "the event" and "the organization", as evidenced by the content about QUAIA and financial difficulties and the stuff that should be here but isn't yet about the current BLM/police fracas. There wouldn't be much basis for us to maintain two separate articles about the event and the organization that runs it, but the idea that this article isn't at least partially about the organization isn't really an accurate reflection of what's actually in this article.

- (Discuss) – Wu Zetian → Empress Wu – This is the name used in most English-language sources I've seen. See also Google Ngrams. There is of course the concern that "Empress Wu" is ambiguous (Empress Wu (disambiguation)), but do a GBook search of "Empress Wu" [13] and review the results one by one, I'd say over 95% of the usage is about Wu Zetian. WP:PRIMARYTOPIC applies, and if you multiply the top "Empress Wu" curve in the Ngram graph by 95%, it'd still be well above the bottom "Wu Zetian" curve (by at least 50%). Two other considerations: 1) "Wu Zetian" gives the impression that "Zetian" is a personal name (it's not). This is the same argument presented in previous discussions like Wikipedia_talk:History standards for China-related articles#Emperor article titles discouraging translations like Han Wudi. 2) In Chinese, the term "Wu Zetian" is a hodgepodge that never appeared in traditional historiography as far as I know. Traditional history books most often called her 武后 ("Empress Wu").

Because of this, we should be referring to "Class T" as a trademark, and class D as the design, both in the article and in the title. Also, I believe it should be "was a trademark" as I don't see a live trademark, and the parent company seems out of business. Best I can tell, the dash wasn't used either.

- (Discuss) – Robert Brown (botanist) → Robert Brown (botanist born 1773) – Until a couple of days ago, we had titles Robert Brown (Scottish botanist from Montrose) and Robert Brown (Scottish botanist from Caithness), which were unambiguous but perhaps rather poorly constructed. Someone then moved the first of these to Robert Brown (botanist), which is ambiguous not only with the other Scottish botanist but also with Robert Brown (New Zealand botanist). The person who moved it has declined to take any action to fix the mess. They have since, however, moved the "Scottish botanist from Caithness" article to "botanist born 1842". I have no great objection to that, though I would have preferred "Scottish botanist born 1842". At any rate, it suggests that the fix for "botanist" is to move it to "botanist born 1773", rather than back to "Scottish botanist from Montrose". Hesperian 00:41, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

This is borne out by an average 2-3x (but same magnitude) pageview comparison. (I would guess the spike of the one article relates to some blog coverage of the Magic set.)

- (Discuss) – National Emblem of the People's Republic of China → National emblem of China – The main article and common name is China. The consensus and precedent at recent move discussions has strongly favoured moves from PRC to the common name of China. See for comparison Flag of China. Capitalisation change per MOS:HEADCAPS.

- (Discuss) – Civil Service of the People's Republic of China → Civil service of China – The main article and common name is China. The category is Category:Government of China. Also more appropriate capitalisation per MOS:HEADCAPS. AusLondonder (talk) 03:02, 14 February 2017 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Red Cross with Triptych egg → ? – This page was moved from Red Cross with Triptych (Fabergé egg) to Red Cross with Triptych by MaybeMaybeMaybe in 2012. I subsequently moved it to Red Cross with Triptych egg,
since the article was not about a triptych but about an egg and(that was careless) unaware that it had already existed once under Red Cross with Triptych (Fabergé egg). It appears that a large proportion of the Faberge egg articles exist with either the parenthetical Faberge egg at the end or simply the word "egg". I attempted to move this article back into Red Cross with Triptych (Fabergé egg) but was prevented from doing so by its edit history. There is no explanation as to why the article was moved away from this namespace in the first place, and no discussion anywhere about the move. I see no reason not to move it back (unless there really is a good reason somewhere). KDS4444 (talk) 00:07, 3 February 2017 (UTC) --Relisting. Andrewa (talk) 19:35, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

- (Discuss) – Im Yoon-ah → Lim Yoon-ah – As per a section above, Yoona's surname is Lim, not Im. The incorrect surname here on Wikipedia has lead sites such as Google to display her name likewise erroneously. Not only is Lim her actual surname, but also by convention surnames are romanized traditionally. The same way Kim Tae-yeon is not Gim Tae-yeon, Lim Yoon-ah should not be Im Yoon-ah. To sum up, two reasons: 1. Lim is Yoona's actual surname instead of Im; 2. Lim is the conventional way to romanize the surname. GeT RiGhT (talk) 22:46, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- (Discuss) – Sette note in nero → The Psychic – per WP:UE and WP:NCF#Foreign-language films. As confirmed by the poster appended to the article, this Italian feature was marketed, distributed and reviewed in the English-speaking world under the title The Psychic. Although the 2013 exchange ["Italian titles vs English titles"], above, postulates that the main title header should display the Italian title because there are multiple English-language titles, a search of film listings in newspapers across the English-speaking world, only finds "The Psychic" as a title which was released for public exhibition and on DVD. —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 03:07, 30 January 2017 (UTC) --Relisting.
