Requested moves is a process for requesting the retitling (moving) of an article, template, or project page on Wikipedia. For information on retitling files, categories, and other items, see § When not to use this page.

Before moving a page or requesting a move, please review the article titling policy and the guidelines on primary topics.

Any autoconfirmed user can move a page using the "Move" option in the editing toolbar; see how to move a page for more information. If you have no reason to expect a dispute concerning a move, be bold and move the page; however, it may not always be possible or desirable to do this:

  • Technical reasons may prevent a move; for example, a page may already exist at the target title and require deletion, or the page may be protected from moves. In such cases, see § Requesting technical moves.
  • Requests to revert recent, undiscussed, controversial moves may be made at WP:RM/TR. If the new name has not become the stable title, the undiscussed move will be reverted. If the new name has become the stable title, a requested move will be needed to determine the article's proper location.
  • A title may be disputed, and discussion may be necessary to reach consensus: see § Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves. The requested moves process is not mandatory, and sometimes an informal discussion at the article's talk page can help reach consensus.
  • A page should not be moved and a new move discussion should not be opened when there is already an open move request on a talk page. Instead, please participate in the open discussion.
  • Unregistered and new (not yet autoconfirmed) users are unable to move pages.

Requests are typically processed after seven days. If consensus supports the move at or after this time, a reviewer will perform it. If there is a consensus not to move the page, the request will be closed as "not moved". When consensus remains unclear, the request may be relisted to allow more time, or closed as "no consensus". See Wikipedia:Requested moves/Closing instructions for more details on the process.

Wikipedia:Move review can be used to contest the outcome of a move request as long as all steps are followed. If a discussion on the closer's talk page does not resolve an issue, then a move review will evaluate the close of the move discussion to determine whether or not the contested close was reasonable and consistent with the spirit and intent of common practice, policies, and guidelines.

When not to use this page

Shortcuts

Separate processes exist for moving certain types of pages, and for changes other than page moves:

Undiscussed moves

Shortcuts

Autoconfirmed editors may move a page without discussion if all of the following apply:

  • No article exists at the new target title;
  • There has been no previous discussion about the title of the page that expressed any objection to a new title; and
  • It seems unlikely that anyone would reasonably disagree with the move.

If you disagree with a prior bold move, and the new title has not been in place for a long time, you may revert the move yourself. If you cannot revert the move for technical reasons, then you may request a technical move.

Move wars are disruptive, so if you make a bold move and it is reverted, do not make the move again. Instead, follow the procedures laid out in § Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves.

Requesting technical moves

Shortcuts

Welcome to Requested moves/Technical requests

If you are unable to complete a move for technical reasons, you can request a technical move below. This is the correct method if you tried to move a page, but you got an error message saying something like "You do not have permission to move this page, for the following reasons:..." or "This page could not be moved, for the following reason:..."

If you are here because you want an experienced editor to approve of your new article or proposed rename, you are in the wrong place.

To list a technical request: edit the Uncontroversial technical requests subsection or click the big blue button and insert the following code at the bottom of the list, filling in pages and reason:

{{subst:RMassist|current page title|new title|reason=edit summary for the move}}

This will automatically insert a bullet and include your signature. Do not edit the article's talk page, just click the button below.

To request a reversion of a recent undiscussed move: Review the guidelines at WP:RMUM of whether a reversion of an undiscussed move qualifies as uncontroversial and if so, edit the Requests to revert undiscussed moves subsection or click the big blue button and insert the following code at the bottom of the list, filling in pages and reason:

{{subst:RMassist|current page title|new title|reason=edit summary for the move}}

Note that in some cases, clerks, such as administrators or page movers may determine that your request for a reversion does not pass the criteria and may move the request to the contested section or open a formal requested move discussion for potentially controversial moves on your behalf.

  • If you object to a proposal listed in the uncontroversial technical requests section, please move the request to the Contested technical requests section, append a note on the request elaborating on why, and sign with ~~~~. Consider pinging the requester to let them know about the objection.
  • If your technical request is contested, or if a contested request is left untouched without reply, create a requested move on the article talk and remove the request from the section here. The fastest and easiest way is to click the "discuss" button at the request, save the talk page, and remove the entry on this page. A bot will automatically remove contested requests after 72 hours of inactivity.
Administration needed

If your request requires an administrator. Usually, do so if the page has been fully protected or move protected (see this guide to which moves need administrators).

Technical requests

Uncontroversial technical requests

  • Ramaleela → Ramaleela (2017 film) (currently a redirect back to Ramaleela) (move · discuss) – Ramaleela is just the alt spelling of Ramlila, a Hindu festival after which the film is itself titled. Gotitbro (talk) 12:44, 1 November 2026 (UTC)reply
Ramaleela (film) appears to be unambiguous. 162 etc. (talk) 19:22, 1 November 2026 (UTC)reply
Then we should move the article to that title instead, although this does lean into the controversial primary topic territory. Thanks! —1isall (talk | contribs) 19:37, 1 November 2026 (UTC)reply
@Gotitbro Thoughts on just (film)? Thanks! —1isall (talk | contribs) 22:56, 2 November 2026 (UTC)reply
Also are you wishing to redirect the base title to Ramlila? Thanks! —1isall (talk | contribs) 22:59, 2 November 2026 (UTC)reply
@1isall: Yes to both. Gotitbro (talk) 23:22, 2 November 2026 (UTC)reply
Also proposing a move in this thread for Raasaleela to Raasaleela (film). The primary topic here being Raslila. Gotitbro (talk) 23:24, 2 November 2026 (UTC)reply

Requests to revert undiscussed moves


Contested technical requests

This is not uncontroversial, appears to fail WP:UE, and I'm pretty sure I've contested this here at WP:RMT before. 162 etc. (talk) 19:18, 1 November 2026 (UTC)reply
Oh okay, I see. I'll move the request to the controversial request then. Thank you so much for the information. Appreciate it! Nuwordlife0rder (talk) 05:35, 2 November 2026 (UTC)reply
My bad! I just noticed that it has already been moved to the contested section. Thanks for this. Waiting for positive results. Nuwordlife0rder (talk) 05:36, 2 November 2026 (UTC)reply
Hope you would understand that the name Iglesia Filipina Independiente is more commonly used than Philippine Independent Church, even in search engines. Thank you so much! Nuwordlife0rder (talk) 05:37, 2 November 2026 (UTC)reply
Please see WP:PCM for guidance on opening move discussions. Note that an argument consisting only of "it's more common in search engines" is unlikely to find consensus. 162 etc. (talk) 05:58, 2 November 2026 (UTC)reply
@~2026-55748-84 Yeah, most of the current sources use the old name. Thanks! —1isall (talk | contribs) 23:56, 31 October 2026 (UTC)reply
@Abcmaxx Could you provide the link of that website doesn't matter if it's dead or live? CONFUSED SPIRIT(Thilio).Talk 04:07, 2 November 2026 (UTC)reply
@Thilio: Reference number 2 in article: Warta Poznań: Stadion przy ul. Droga Dębińska 12. Not particularly relevant anyway because this is akin to renaming Old Trafford Stadium to Manchester United Stadium or Santiago Bernabeu Stadium to the Real Madrid Stadium, which is nonsensical. Abcmaxx (talk) 17:54, 2 November 2026 (UTC)reply
@Abcmaxx Opposed. no clear reasoning to justify this req to revert undiscussed also the article hist revision has a maze of moves back and forth. You should open RM for this if you wish this to be moved. CONFUSED SPIRIT(Thilio).Talk 19:15, 2 November 2026 (UTC)reply

Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves

Shortcuts

The discussion process is used for potentially controversial moves. A move is potentially controversial if either of the following applies:

  • there has been any past debate about the best title for the page;
  • someone could reasonably disagree with the move.

Use this process if there is any reason to believe a move would be contested. For technical move requests, such as to correct obvious typographical errors, see Requesting technical moves. The technical moves procedure can also be used for uncontroversial moves when the requested title is occupied by an existing article.

Do not create a new move request when one is already open on the same talk page. Instead, consider contributing to the open discussion if you would like to propose another alternative. Multiple closed move requests may be on the same page, but each should have a unique section heading.

Do not create a move request to rename one or more redirects. Redirects cannot be used as current titles in requested moves.

Requesting a single page move

"WP:RSPM" redirects here. For entries on the perennial sources list that start with "M", see Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources/5.
Shortcut

To request a single page move, click on the "Add topic" (or "New section") tab of the talk page of the article you want moved, without adding a new subject/header, inserting this code:

{{subst:requested move|New name|reason=Place here your rationale for the proposed page name change. You don't need to add your signature at the end, as this template will do so automatically.}}

Replace New name with the requested new name of the page (or with a simple question mark, if you want more than one possible new name to be considered). The template will automatically create the heading "Requested move [today's date]" and sign the post for you.

The reasons for the move can be summarized referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support. If your reasoning includes search engine results, please prioritize searches limited to reliable sources (e.g. books, news, scholarly papers) over other web results.

There is no need to edit the article in question. Once the above code is added to the Talk page, a bot will automatically add the following notification at the top of the affected page:

Unlike other request processes on Wikipedia, such as Requests for comment, nominations need not be neutral. Make your point as best you can; use evidence (such as Google Ngrams and pageview statistics) and refer to applicable policies and guidelines, especially our article titling policy and the guideline on disambiguation and primary topics.

WikiProjects may subscribe to Article alerts to receive RM notifications. For example, Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Article alerts/Requested moves is transcluded to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Biography. RMCD bot notifies many of the other Wikiprojects listed on the talk page of the article to be moved to invite project members to participate in the RM discussion. Requesters should feel free to notify any other Wikiproject or noticeboard that might be interested in the move request, as long as this notification is neutral.

Single page move on a different talk page

Occasionally, a move request must be made on a talk page other than the talk page of the page to be moved. For example, a request to rename Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Resources to Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Reviewing and templates would need to take place at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Articles for creation because the talk page of the project page to be moved, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Articles for creation/Resources, is a redirect to that centralized discussion page. In this type of case, the requested move should be made using the following code:

{{subst:requested move|reason=(the reason for the page move goes here).|current1=(present title of page to be renamed)|new1=(proposed title of page)}}

The |1= unnamed parameter is not used. The |current1= and |new1= parameters are used similar to multiple page moves described below.

Requesting multiple page moves

Shortcut

A single template may be used to request multiple related moves. On one of the talk pages of the affected pages, create a request and format it as below. A sample request for three page moves is shown here (for two page moves, omit the lines for current3 and new3). For four page moves, add lines for current4 and new4, and so on. There is no technical limit on the number of multiple move requests, but before requesting very large multi-moves, consider whether a naming convention should be changed first. Discuss that change on the talk page for the naming convention, e.g., Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (sportspeople).

To request a multiple page move, edit at the bottom of the talk page of the article you chose for your request, without adding a new header, inserting this code:

{{subst:requested move
| current1 = Current title of page 1 (this parameter can be omitted for discussions hosted on a page that is proposed to be moved)
| new1     = New title for page 1 with the talk page hosting this discussion
| current2 = Current title of page 2
| new2     = New title for page 2
| current3 = Current title of page 3
| new3     = New title for page 3
| reason   = Place here your rationale for the proposed page name change, referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support. If your reasoning includes search engine results, please prioritize searches limited to reliable sources (e.g. books, news, scholarly papers) over other web results. You don't need to add your signature at the end, as this template will do so automatically.
}}
See also: Template:Requested move/extended blank

For example, to propose moving the articles Wikipedia and Wiki, put this template on Talk:Wikipedia with current1 set to Wikipedia and current2 set to Wiki. The discussion for all affected articles is held on the talk page of the article where the template is placed (Talk:Wikipedia). Do not sign the request with ~~~~, since the template does this automatically (so if you sign it yourself there will be two copies of your signature at the end of the request). Do not skip pairs of numbers.

RMCD bot automatically places a notice section on the talk page of all pages that are included in your request except the one hosting the discussion, to call attention to the move discussion that is in progress and to suggest that all discussion for all of the pages included in the request should take place at that one hosting location.

For multi-move discussions hosted on a page which is itself proposed to be moved, it is not necessary to include the |current1=Current title of page 1 for the page hosting the discussion, as its current title can be inferred automatically. Occasionally the discussions for significant multi-move requests may be hosted on WikiProject talk pages or other pages in Project namespace, in which case it is necessary to include |current1= to indicate the first article to be moved.

If you have to update a RM from a single move to multiple moves, you need to add the following parameters to the {{requested move/dated}} template call:

  • |multiple=yes
  • |current1=Current title of page 1
  • |new1=New title for page 1 with the talk page hosting this discussion
  • |current2=Current title of page 2
  • |new2=New title for page 2
  • |currentN=Current title of page N
  • |newN=New title for page N|}}
...where N represents more pages to be moved. Place a pipe ( | ) at the end just before the final set of braces ( |}} )

Request all associated moves explicitly

Shortcut

Please list every move that you wish to have made in your request. For example, if you wish to move Cricket (disambiguation) to Cricket because you do not believe the sport is the primary topic for the search term "Cricket", then you actually want to move two pages, both Cricket (disambiguation) and Cricket. Thus you must list proposed titles for each page affected by your request. For example, you might propose:

If a new title is not proposed for the sport, it is more difficult to achieve consensus for a new title for that article. A move request that does not show what to do with the material at its proposed target, such as:

is incomplete. Such requests may be completed as a request to decide the best new title by discussion.

If a disambiguation page is in the way of a move, the request may be completed as proposing to add (disambiguation).

    Commenting on a requested move

    All editors are welcome to contribute to the discussion regarding a requested page move. There are a number of standards that Wikipedians should practice in such discussions:

    • When editors recommend a course of action, they write Support or Oppose in bold text, which is done by surrounding the word with three single quotes on each side, e.g. '''Support'''.
    • Comments or recommendations are added on a new bulleted line (that is, starting with *) and signed by adding ~~~~ to the end. Responses to another editor are threaded and indented using multiple bullets.
    • The article itself should be reviewed before any recommendation is made; do not base recommendations solely on the information supplied by other editors. It may also help to look at the article's edit history. However, please read the earlier comments and recommendations, as well as prior move requests. They may contain relevant arguments and useful information.
    • Vested interests in the article should be disclosed per Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI.

    When participating, please consider the following:

    • Editors should make themselves familiar with the article titling policy at Wikipedia:Article titles.
    • Other important guidelines that set forth community norms for article titles include Wikipedia:Disambiguation, specific naming conventions, and the manual of style.
    • The debate is not a vote; please do not make recommendations that are not sustained by arguments.
    • Explain how the proposed article title meets or contravenes policy and guidelines rather than merely stating that it does so.
    • Nomination already implies that the nominator supports the name change, and nominators should refrain from repeating this recommendation on a separate bulleted line.[a]
    • Do not make conflicting recommendations. If you change your mind, use strike-through to retract your previous statement by enclosing it between <s> and </s> after the bullets, and de-bold the struck words, as in "• Support Oppose".

    Please remember that reasonable editors will sometimes disagree, but that arguments based in policy, guidelines, and evidence have more weight than unsupported statements. When an editor offers an argument that does not explain how the move request is consistent with policies and guidelines, a reminder to engage in constructive, on-topic discussion may be useful. On the other hand, a pattern of responding to requests with groundless opinion, proof by assertion, and ignoring content guidelines may become disruptive. If a pattern of disruptive behavior persists after efforts are made to correct the situation through dialogue, please consider using a dispute resolution process.

    Closing a requested move

    Any uninvolved editor in good standing may close a move request by assessing consensus after the requested move discussion has been open for at least seven days (168 hours). Please familiarize yourself with the quick guide to closing requested move discussions before performing any close. Some best practices for closing are outlined at Wikipedia:Requested moves/Closing instructions.

    Relisting a requested move

    Relisting a discussion moves the request out of the backlog up to the current day in order to encourage further input. The decision to relist a discussion is best left to uninvolved experienced editors upon considering, but declining, to close the discussion. In general, discussions should not be relisted more than once before properly closing.[b] Users relisting a debate which has already been relisted, or relisting a debate with a substantial discussion, should write a short explanation on why they did not consider the debate sufficient to close. While there is no consensus forbidding participation in a requested move discussion after relisting it, many editors consider it an inadvisable form of supervote. If you want to relist a discussion and then participate in it, be prepared to explain why you think it was appropriate.

    Relisting should be done using {{subst:RM relist}}, which automatically includes the relister's signature, and which must be placed at the very end of the initial request after the move requester's signature (and subsequent relisters' signatures).

    When a relisted discussion reaches a resolution, it may be closed at any time according to the closing instructions; there is no required length of time to wait before closing a relisted discussion.

    If discussion has become stale, or it seems that discussion would benefit from more input of editors versed in the subject area, consider more widely publicizing the discussion, such as by notifying WikiProjects of the discussion using the template {{RM notification}}. Banners placed at the top of the talk page hosting the move request can often be used to identify WikiProjects suitable for notification.

    Notes

    1. ↑ A nominator making a procedural nomination with which they may not agree is free to add a bulleted line explaining their actual position. Additional detail, such as sources, may also be provided in an additional bullet point if its inclusion in the nomination statement would make the statement unwieldy. Please remember that the entire nomination statement appears on the list on this page.
    2. ↑ Despite this, discussions are occasionally relisted more than once.

    • (Discuss) – ARIA Music Awards → ARIA Awards – ARIA officially refers to the awards as the ARIA Awards, and has done so for a long time. This is the name used during broadcast, and is also the name used in every publication I can find discussing the awards. "ARIA Music Awards" may be more immediately informative to someone unfamiliar with the subject, but it isn't the official or common name of the awards, and there doesn't appear to be any other notable awards show with the same name that someone might confuse it with. ~2026-58105-44 (talk) 00:51, 3 November 2026 (UTC)reply

The legal company name remains "The Irish College of General Practitioners CLG"; this can be stated in the lead, but article titles follow common usage rather than legal names.

    • (Discuss) – List of private military contractors → List of Private Military Companies – I believe this article should be titled "List of Private Military Companies." The linked "private military contractor" article in the introduction has already adopted C for Company, which is the most common and precise label. Private Military Contractor is imprecise because "Private Military Contractor" can refer to both an organization or an individual person (an employee of such an organization). Company makes it clear we are listing organizations. "Military contractor" is also a very broad term, so this list includes Raytheon and Northrup Grumman, which are not the same kind of organization as something like Wagner, Executive Outcomes, or Vectus Global. I think Raytheon and NG should be removed, but it is harder to justify that removal as long as this article is titled "contractors." I expect most readers of this article are here looking for Wagner-esque modern mercenary groups.

    • (Discuss) – Carmen Jordá → Carmen Jorda – The subject spells her own name "Carmen Jorda", without the accent: her official Instagram and X accounts both display it that way. Her employer Alpine does the same in its official announcement (Alpine press release, November 2025), as does recent English-language coverage (The Race, November 2025 and Variety, December 2025). Per WP:COMMONNAME and WP:UE, the title should follow usage in English-language reliable sources, which here also matches the subject's own usage. For transparency: Spanish-language press generally keeps the accent, so this is a question of English usage, not of correcting the Spanish spelling. Disclosure: I am a declared paid contributor for the subject (see the disclosure on this page and my user page), which is why I am opening a requested move for the community to decide rather than moving the page myself.

    • (Discuss) – Yuri → Yuri (disambiguation) – I believe the genre is the primary topic. Of all of the many terms that can be referred to solely as "yuri" (i.e., not including Yuri Gagarin, because nobody would ever type Yuri into the search bar and expect to land on his page), the genre receives about two-thirds of the pageviews (Pageviews analyses: ). Under PT1, which requires that an article receives more views than all topics and more views than any other topics, this clears. It receives more than 10x the views of all other topics, except for Yuri (Mexican singer), where it receives only 5x as many views. From Wikinav, most traffic on the dab page is directed to this article, though it is only about 40%. After that, the next highest amount is the first entry Yury (at about 25%), which I can't tell if it is natural traffic or just people giving up at the dabpage.
      Under long-term significance, I believe the genre has the most, given that it is a genre, something that is obviously more to sources attentions than names or whatnot. People are publishing sources titled By Your Side: The First 100 Years of Yuri Anime and Manga, nobody is publishing sources titled By Your Side: The History of the Japanese name Yuri. The only entry with any possible contention of some equivalent long-term signficance is the Mexican singer. However, the dab page is formatted so that she and the genre and the 6th and 24th entries, respectively. I don't think that serves readers particularly well. I believe readers would best be served by a hatnote formatted as This article is about the genre. For the Mexican singer, see Yuri (Mexican singer). For other uses, see Yuri (disambiguation) This would improve navigation to both the singer and the the genre, which combined receive about 85% of the views. 1brianm7 (talk) 02:06, 1 November 2026 (UTC)reply

    • (Discuss) – Suspension of Bogdan Święczkowski → 2026 Polish Constitutional Tribunal standoff – the title of "Suspension of Bogdan Święczkowski" is not only very narrow and not so descriptive of the entire affair described in the article body, but it is also a very difficult name to look for if someone is not aware that the article sits under this name. Neither is that name held up by WP:COMMONNAME (because no RS call the course of events by that name). The name "2026 Polish Constitutional Tribunal standoff", or "-crisis", or "-dispute"-any variation of that name-will be both better fitting the entire situation and significantly easier to find: this can be proven by checking the pageviews analysis-"2026 Polish (something)" is broadly more findable.

    • (Discuss) – Musiktheater Füssen → Festspielhaus Neuschwanstein – I think the english article should have the same title as the German article. The article title for the english page here is already in german, so it would not get rid of a standardized english name. Furthermore, a google search reveals that wikipedia is the only place where this subject is titled "Musiktheater Füssen" rather than "Festspielhaus Neuschwanstein," so changing the name would fascilitate easier learning more about this subject. If we're going to have a german title for this article, it might as well be the same german title as that of German Wikipedia. LincolnMagnus (talk) 19:01, 30 October 2026 (UTC)reply

    • (Discuss) – Delaware Park Racetrack → Delaware Park (casino) – Delaware Park has been more of a casino than a racetrack for a number of years now, and it seems like the disambiguated name would be accurate. While it is hard to compare casino figures to racing figures, there was only $3.1 million of at the track horse betting in 2025. There is a notable amount of simulcast betting, but that is hard to compare apples-to-apples with in person casino gambling, which brings in $15 million/month in revenue for the casino.

    • (Discuss) – Yazidis → Yezidis – I've held off on this for a long time, even though the mixed spelling has bothered me for years, as I know a move like this is a lot to ask. The change would have to be carried through article bodies and neighboring pages, and that is extra work for editors who watch them. But I'm planning to create new articles with this term in the title, so I'd like to settle the spelling first, once and for all. Specialist scholarship on the subject uses "Yezidi", "Yezidis" and "Yezidism" as the standard spelling, and per WP:NAMECHANGES and WP:SCHOLARSHIP I think the titles should follow it. I'm asking for both together so the two titles stay consistent. Examples of "Yezidi" used wherever it might have a highly relevant role in editing on Wikipedia: * International Journal of Yezidi Studies, peer reviewed, published by the Centre for Yezidi Studies at Ilia State University and the International Yezidi Theological Academy in Tbilisi. * The Yezidi Studies book series (Frank & Timme, Berlin), edited at the Yezidi Studies Center, Leipzig University. * Works of Kreyenbroek and Omarkhali, two of notable scholars on Yezidism who use this spelling in their works ("Yezidism and Yezidi Studies in the early 21st century" in 2016, "The Yezidi Religious Textual Tradition: From Oral to Written" in 2017, "God and Sheikh Adi are Perfect. Sacred Poems and Religious Narratives from the Yezidi Tradition" in 2005, "Yezidism between Continuity and Transformation" in 2021, among many other works). * Other examples of scholars and academic monographs using "Yezidis" that are cited extensively on Wikipedia pages: Açıkyıldız, The Yezidis: The History of a Community, Culture and Religion (2010); Maisel, Yezidis in Syria: Identity Building among a Double Minority; Tezcür (ed.), Kurds and Yezidis in the Middle East: Shifting Identities, Borders, and the Experience of Minority Communities (I.B. Tauris, 2021); Rodziewicz, The Yezidis of the South Caucasus (2026). These are only a sample of highly credible sources, as I do not wish to overwhelm this proposal, but if one goes into rabbit hole on related literature, it'll be apparent that the overwhelming part of monographs and papers relevant to Yezidis use this spelling. Also of note is "Yezidi Alphabet: The Way to Unicode" in 2023. The script was proposed to Unicode by Rovenchak, Pirbari (himself a leading scholar) and Karaca, as "Yezidi" (L2/18-238). As for Google statistics, for what they're worth, Google Books gives about 156,000 results for "Yezidism" against 2,600 for "Yazidism", and about 108,000 for "Yezidis" against 64,600 for "Yazidis". Scholar by contrast gives about 24,500 for "Yazidis" and 14,800 for "Yezidis", but 1,920 for "Yezidism" against 685 for "Yazidism". The ngram for 2014 to 2022 shows "Yazidi" and "Yezidi" as well as "Yazidis" and "Yezidis" at close to the same rate, or higher for "Yezidis", as of 2022. The gap is even bigger between "Yezidism" and "Yazidism", with Yezidism being higher. "Yazidi" became common in news coverage, growing sharply after 2014 Yazidi genocide, and is mainly found publications in fields that approached the Yezidis through the ISIS genocide, such international criminal law, human rights and medical research on survivors. "Yezidi" however, has a much broader use, in religious studies, history, anthropology, linguistics, political science, sociology, etc. If this passes, I'd follow up with the other titles that contain the term (such as Yazidi genocide and Persecution of Yazidis), along with categories, templates and such.

    • (Discuss) – Us Moderates → We Moderates – The current title "Us Moderates" is an ungrammatical, word-for-word translation of the Italian party name "Noi Moderati." In English, the pronoun "We" is grammatically required for a subject phrase like this. Moving the page to "We Moderates" corrects the grammar while providing a proper English translation for readers, aligning with Wikipedia's preference for accurate English styling. ALTERNATIVE PROPOSAL: If editors prefer to avoid English translation disputes altogether, I suggest moving the page to its native Italian name, **Noi Moderati**, which is widely used by international media and complies with Wikipedia's naming conventions for political parties (WP:NC-PL). Either option is vastly superior to the current ungrammatical title. Theescholar (talk) 21:53, 21 October 2026 (UTC) — Relisting. –Maltazarian ᚾparleyinvestigateᛅ 23:40, 28 October 2026 (UTC)reply
