::@NShehan if this requires a HISTMERGE, then you should request that first. It may make a mive unnecessary, and we certainly don't want to expand the mess by moving pages around. Toadspike [Talk] 07:11, 22 June 2025 (UTC)

::I believe they are just trying to do the correct thing after a similar thing happened with Draft:Asarum rhombiformis and Draft:Asarum_shuttleworthii.

  • {{RMassist/core | 1 = Town and country planning in the United Kingdom | 2 = Town and country planning | discuss = | reason = To make the article title more concise.

  • :Oppose. The title is far too generic. Nobody is going to look at this and assume it refers only to the UK. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:13, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
  • {{RMassist/core | 1 = Black comedy | 2 = Dark humor | discuss = | reason = No one uses the term “black comedy” anymore.

That or simply dark comedy.| sig = V.B.Speranza (talk) 00:48, 25 June 2025 (UTC) | requester = V.B.Speranza}}
  • While you can't logically prove a negative, some evidence is needed on how "No one" uses the term anymore and if it has been totally replaced in the public consciousness with a new term that everybody uses. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:08, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

:: @V.B.Speranza That sounds like a good argument for an RM, but not really an uncontroversial argument for a undiscussed move. cyberdog958Talk 14:52, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

::{{tq|No one uses the term “black comedy” anymore.}} Since when? In my experience, it's used all the time. I would also note that Dark humor converts a neutral title into an American English one. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:15, 26 June 2025 (UTC)

:::{{tq|I would also note that Dark humor converts a neutral title into an American English one.}} So, the article would be moved to Dark humour (British spelling) instead? GTrang (talk) 00:50, 28 June 2025 (UTC)

::::Although no template, it's written in American, and humour is currently considered the common name (spelling wise) as opposed to humor, but not without numerous exceptions; Jewish humor, anti-humor, theories of humor, humor styles, office humor, and more. Yet another good reason for an RM to establish common name. CNC (talk) 11:27, 28 June 2025 (UTC)

:: @LearnerGenius WP:NUMERAL indicates that numerals zero through nine should be spelled out. Bensci54 (talk) 16:13, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

  • {{RMassist/core | 1 = East African lowland honey bee | 2 = South Eastern African honey bee | discuss = | reason = The current title is incorrect since A. m. scutellata is not confined to East Africa and is not necessarily a lowland bee. | sig = Maxridge (talk) 11:13, 26 June 2025 (UTC) | requester = Maxridge}}
  • : But this name does appear to be in use, even if it's historically not accurate (like some organisms with ant in the name may not be true ants, zoologically). More consideration required. 2A00:23C5:FE1C:3701:69A7:27BB:472A:63D0 (talk) 13:54, 26 June 2025 (UTC)

  • {{RMassist/core | 1 = John Mundy (mayor) | 2 = Sir John Mundy | discuss = | reason = WP:NCKT 4: "Sir may be used in article titles as a disambiguator when a name is ambiguous and one of those who used it was knighted." None of the other John Mundys on the disambiguation page was. | sig = Opera hat (talk) 16:28, 26 June 2025 (UTC) | requester = Opera hat}}
  • :Oppose. Despite such a guideline at WP:NCKT4, I cannot find other entries that are disambiguated solely via the pre-nominal "Sir". A preferable option would be an RM discussion, unless one had already taken place at some point in the past, that would serve as a precedent for any future proposals of this nature. —Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 20:28, 27 June 2025 (UTC)
  • {{RMassist/core | 1 = John Oliver | 2 = John Oliver (entertainer) | discuss = | reason = Disambiguating | sig = Percy James91 (talk) 06:26, 27 June 2025 (UTC) | requester = Percy James91}}

:: @Percy James91 Strong oppose. The article is currently the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, it has many times more page views than the other articles combined. Annh07 (talk) 06:51, 27 June 2025 (UTC)

:::Tangentially, this move request needs to specify what should be done with the base page name to avoid WP:MISPLACED. More to the point, this has been discussed before and is thus ineligible for technical move requests as a WP:PCM. Rotideypoc41352 (talk · contribs) 00:43, 29 June 2025 (UTC)

  • {{RMassist/core | 1 = US intervention in the Syrian civil war | 2 = United States intervention in the Syrian civil war | discuss = | reason = Convention established by innumerable other articles is that United States is fully spelled out. | sig = ~ Pbritti (talk) 01:45, 24 June 2025 (UTC) | requester = Pbritti}}
  • This request is valid but note that the opposite happened last year with the related Timeline of US intervention in the Syrian civil war, in which "United States" was previously spelled out before being shortened for a different policy reason. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 15:09, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
  • {{re|Doomsdayer520}} The renaming of Timeline of US intervention in the Syrian civil war seems to be in an attempt to make that article consistent with the one I'm requesting the move on. I think there's pretty clear indication that the spelling out "United States" is the norm and should be applied to both articles. If you believe a RM discussion is necessary for either/both, I can get on that. Best, ~ Pbritti (talk) 21:11, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
  • I don't think the fuller process is necessary as long as we have consistency. The "Timeline" article should be fixed so "United States" is spelled out, but the person who moved it to that title last year should receive an explanation. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:05, 25 June 2025 (UTC)
  • :{{od}}{{re|Pbritti}} I think your inference that making the two articles consistent would require a full RM is right given the move history of the Timeline article. (For the record, I have no opinion on this and speak solely from a purely procedural perspective.) Rotideypoc41352 (talk · contribs) 01:24, 29 June 2025 (UTC)

  • :@Hariboneagle927, it looks like what you want to request is a {{t|History split}}. Realistically, you could probably just start the article over with a "Copied from Special:PermaLink/1295369782" edit summary or something like that, but a History Split will have to be done by an admin, up to you.
