The following is a log of all deletion, requested move, and speedy renaming nominations made by InfiniteNexus. New entries are logged either semi-automatically using Twinkle or manually for bulk nominations.
March 2021
[edit]- Google Storage: nominated at RM (technical); New name: Google Cloud Storage 03:22, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: This is the correct name for the service.
June 2021
[edit]- Google Pixelbook: nominated at RM; New name: Pixelbook 04:29, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: In line with other Pixel-related articles including the Pixel 5, Pixel Slate, Pixel Buds, Pixel C, Chromebook Pixel, and more.
- Template talk:Google Inc./Examples: nominated at MfD; notified Wikid77 (talk · contribs) 00:01, 19 June 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: Page was last edited in 2009 and appears to be outdated (the instructions listed on the page no longer work).
- Template:Snyderverse: nominated at TfD; notified Kevinishere15 (talk · contribs) 22:39, 19 June 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: Unofficial fan term, basically an excerpt of {{DC Extended Universe}}, lack of notability for now.
August 2021
[edit]- Template:Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: nominated at TfD; notified 21AndSon (talk · contribs) 16:48, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: After removing several redirects, only three articles remain, which is not enough to justify the use of a navbox.
September 2021
[edit]- Fuchsia (software): nominated at RM (technical); New name: Fuchsia (operating system) 14:58, 19 September 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: More accurate description
October 2021
[edit]- Draft talk:Shuri (Marvel Cinematic Universe): nominated at RM (technical); New name: Talk:Shuri (Marvel Cinematic Universe) 15:01, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: Recently published
- Google Currents (social app): nominated at RM (technical); New name: Google Currents 23:29, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: revert unexplained move
- Google Currents (news app): nominated at RM (technical); New name: Google Currents (2011–2013) 23:29, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: revert unexplained move
- Google Currents (2011–2013): nominated at RM (technical); New name: Google Currents 13:52, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: Rv cut-and-paste move, page needs to be swapped with Google Currents
- Google Currents: nominated at RM (technical); New name: Google Currents (2011–2013) 13:52, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: Rv cut-and-paste move, page needs to be swapped with Google Currents (2011–2013)
- Pietro Maximoff (Marvel Cinematic Universe): nominated at RM (technical); New name: Draft:Pietro Maximoff (Marvel Cinematic Universe) 16:10, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: Subject of the article does not satisfy criteria established by the MCU taskforce.
November 2021
[edit]- X-Men '97: nominated at AfD; notified Sokuya (talk · contribs) 01:52, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: Animated series that is currently scheduled to be released in 2023, so it is clearly still very early in the development process, barely in pre-production. Per WP:NFF, it should be draftified as soon as possible.
- Google TV: nominated at RM; New name: Google TV (service) 00:49, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: The "Google TV" brand is used to refer to three different things: a VOD service formerly known as Google Play Movies & TV (currently located at Google TV), an updated interface of Android TV often used interchangeably with the aforementioned app (currently located at Android TV § Google TV interface), and a defunct operating system for smart TVs axed in 2014 and sometimes confused for the aforementioned interface (currently located at Google TV (operating system)). A quick Google search for "Google TV" indicates that most people are looking for the Android TV interface (because it's the newest), but I'm not convinced that's there is a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC among the three terms, plus I think pointing Google TV to the Android TV interface would only result in more confusion for casual readers. Therefore, I propose that this article be moved to Google TV (service), while Google TV becomes a WP:DAB page listing all three uses.
- Pinocchio (upcoming stop-motion film): nominated at RM (technical); New name: Pinocchio (2022 film) 05:11, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: This page was unilaterally moved from Pinocchio (2022 film) to Pinocchio (upcoming stop-motion film), but an RM discussion at Talk:Pinocchio (upcoming Disney film) is still ongoing.
December 2021
[edit]- Magneto (film series character): nominated at RM; New name: Erik Lehnsherr (film series character) 06:33, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: WP:CONSISTENT with other X-Men film character articles including Logan (film series character) and Charles Xavier (film series character), both of which use the characters' real names instead of their codenames.
- Declaration of Independence (Trumbull): nominated at RM; New name: Declaration of Independence (painting) 04:55, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: There are no other notable paintings of the same name, so it is unnecessary to disambiguate the article by the artist's name. Declaration of Independence (painting) currently redirects here as well.
- Otto Octavius (film character): nominated at RM; New name: Otto Octavius (Sam Raimi film series) 19:08, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
- Reason: This article was cut-paste moved from Draft:Otto Octavius (Sam Raimi film series) (with a histmerge already requested), but this current title is not WP:CONSISTENT with the other character articles in Category:Spider-Man (2002 film series). Note that it doesn't matter that Octavius also appears in an MCU film, as he did not originate from that franchise. InfiniteNexus (talk) 19:08, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
January 2022
[edit]- Junkie XL: nominated at RM; New name: Tom Holkenborg 01:44, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Per his official website, Tom Holkenborg only uses the stage name "Junkie XL" for his works as an electronic artist. His last studio album was in 2012, and he has since transitioned to mostly film scores (which he is best known for nowadays). He did recently release his first EP in almost a decade (article), but as seen here he has been credited as "Tom Holkenborg" in virtually all of his albums since 2015. His Twitter and Instagram profiles are also titled "Tom Holkenborg", while his official website is located at tomholkenborg
.com and not junkiexl .com. InfiniteNexus (talk) 01:44, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

- Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019 film): nominated at RM; New name: Godzilla: King of the Monsters 05:16, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: The last time an RM discussion for this page took place back in 2019, editors were unable to decide whether Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019 film) or Godzilla, King of the Monsters! was the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Well, fast forward to today, and I think it's pretty clear that the 2019 film is the rightful primary topic, especially given the fact that it received 90,334 pageviews in the past 30 days while the 1956 film only received 7,723. While some editors in the previous RM argued that the exclamation point is not enough to distinguish the latter from the former, they seem to have overlooked the fact that there is a comma instead of a colon. If anything, the disambiguation page should be located at Godzilla King of the Monsters, without any punctuation marks. InfiniteNexus (talk) 05:16, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
February 2022
[edit]- Google Titan: nominated at RM (technical); New name: Titan Security Key 00:48, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: The editor who previously requested this page to be moved is mistaken, "Google Titan" is the name of a product line, see List of Google products § Security tools. At first glance, it looks like this stub article only covers the security token and not the chips.
March 2022
[edit]- Speechify Text To Speech: nominated at RM (technical); New name: Speechify 06:46, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: No evidence that the product's name is "Speechify Text to Speech", sources and official sites all use just "Speechify". WP:COMMONNAME also applies.
- Snow White (upcoming American film): nominated at RM (technical); New name: Snow White (upcoming film) 04:37, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Redirect in the way. No other upcoming Snow White films as of now, thus "American" is an unnecessary disambiguation.
- 2022 anti-war protests in India: nominated at AfD; notified Sudip Karmakar23 (talk · contribs) 22:39, 19 March 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Protests in India against the Russian invasion of Ukraine do not appear to be any more notable than protests happening in many other countries. Any noteworthy details from this article can just be added to Protests against the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.
- Marvel Cinematic Universe: Chapter Five: nominated at RfD; Target: Captain America: The First Avenger; notified RomanceLove88 (talk · contribs) 00:03, 22 March 2022 (UTC)Marvel Cinematic Universe: Chapter Four: nominated at RfD;

- Reason: Outrageously absurd and unnecessary redirects. MCU films are never called "episodes" or "chapters".

- Reason: More absurd and unnecessary redirects. These films and TV series are never called that, so it doubtful any reader would search up these keywords.

- Reason: Third set of pointless redirects. A number after the phrase "Marvel Cinematic Universe" or "MCU" is ambiguous and unhelpful, and MCU phases are never called "seasons".
- Widow black: nominated at RfD; Target: Black widow (notified) 00:46, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: This redirect doesn't make sense. Why would someone who is looking for information about the black widow spider type in "widow black" in the search bar?
- Fantastic Four 4: nominated at RfD; Target: Fantastic Four in film#Marvel Cinematic Universe 16:59, 22 March, 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Not sure if this is the proper procedure, but adding the following redirect that was just created as well:
- SM (2002 film): nominated at RfD; Target: Spider-Man (2002 film) 16:27, 26 March 2022 (UTC)SMFFH: nominated at RfD; Target: Spider-Man: Far From Home 16:27, 26 March 2022 (UTC)SMNNH: nominated at RfD; Target: Spider-Man: No Way Home 16:27, 26 March 2022 (UTC)Spider-Man: Home: nominated at RfD; Target: Spider-Man: Homecoming 16:27, 26 March 2022 (UTC)Spider-Man: Home 2: nominated at RfD; Target: Spider-Man: Far From Home 16:27, 26 March 2022 (UTC)Spider-Man: Home 3: nominated at RfD; Target: Spider-Man: No Way Home 16:27, 26 March 2022 (UTC)Deadpool (2018 film): nominated at RfD; Target: Deadpool 2 16:27, 26 March 2022 (UTC)The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (film): nominated at RfD; Target: Captain America: Civil War#The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and fourth film 16:27, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Same reasoning as Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 March 22 § Pointless MCU redirects (pt. 2) and § The Amazing Spider Man (again). These films are never referred to by these truncated names.
- Template:Deadpool film series: nominated at TfD; notified MandoWarrior (talk · contribs) 03:33, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: After removing numerous irrelevant links, there are still problems with this navbox. First and foremost, this navbox is a fork of {{X-Men media}}, which already has almost all of the links found here. It is excessive to list every single song in the two Deadpool soundtracks, and Wade Wilson (film character) is a redirect (there is a draft, but it was declined several times).
April 2022
[edit]- The Other Wiki: nominated at RfD; Target: Wikipedia (notified); notified Qwerfjkl (talk · contribs) 03:50, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Never heard Wikipedia being called "The Other Wiki", plus this name is not mentioned in the article. I dug a little deeper, and it appears this was an accepted AFC request based on an obscure TV Tropes page, which is not enough to justify this redirect.
- Spider-Man 2 3: nominated at RfD; Target: Spider-Man: Far From Home; notified MrBlonde267 (talk · contribs) 04:21, 5 April 2022 (UTC)Spider-Man 3 2: nominated at RfD; Target: Spider-Man: No Way Home 04:21, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Highly unusual and confusing way to call these two films, extremely unlikely to be used a search term.
- Draft:Proposed takeover of Twitter by Elon Musk: nominated at RM (technical); New name: Proposed takeover of Twitter by Elon Musk 18:31, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Draft now ready for mainspace. Both the draft and the redirect were created by me.
May 2022
[edit]- Marvel Superheroes Secret Wars: nominated at RM; New name: Secret Wars 17:51, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Per WP:COMMONNAME. An overwhelming number of sources refer to the comic book series as Secret Wars, with the current title only garnering 34 results on Google News and "Secret Wars 1984" garnering 4,170 results. (Note that just "Secret Wars" without the year gets 53,100 results, but that includes the 2015 run as well.)
June 2022
[edit]- Apple Worldwide Developers Conference: nominated at RM; New name: Worldwide Developers Conference 04:38, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Per WP:COMMONNAME. WWDC is rarely referred to as "Apple Worldwide Developers Conference"; that term yielded 16,500 results on Google News while "Worldwide Developers Conference" yielded 42,700 results. Additionally, this recent press release from Apple calls the event "Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference", not "Apple Worldwide Developers Conference", and notice that the initialism is WWDC and not AWWDC. Thus, "Apple" is a wholly unnecessary disambiguation. InfiniteNexus (talk) 04:38, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
- Pacific Rim: Uprising: nominated at RM; New name: Pacific Rim Uprising 21:35, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: The billing block of the film indicates there is not a colon, contrary to what editors in the last RM erroneously believed. This article notes that the film is
spelled without a colon, according to the studio
, and plenty of reliable sources (Variety, THR, Deadline, Collider) exclude the colon. A film title without a colon is also not that uncommon, see Alien Resurrection, The Matrix Reloaded, Terminator Genisys, Jurassic World Dominion, etc.
- Reason: The billing block of the film indicates there is not a colon, contrary to what editors in the last RM erroneously believed. This article notes that the film is
- Family buisiness: nominated at RfD; Target: Family business 23:49, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Implausible typo. Only received 910 views in the past 7 years, and not linked on any article.
- Watson (computer): nominated at RM; New name: IBM Watson 04:34, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Per WP:NATURALDAB, natural disambiguations are preferred over parenthetical disambiguations. "IBM Watson" is also the name used on its official website, and is commonly used in reliable sources.
- Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2: nominated at RM; New name: SARS-CoV-2 00:02, 21 June 2022 (UTC)Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 1: nominated at RM; New name: SARS-CoV-1 00:02, 21 June 2022 (UTC)Severe acute respiratory syndrome–related coronavirus: nominated at RM; New name: SARSr-CoV 00:02, 21 June 2022 (UTC)Middle East respiratory syndrome–related coronavirus: nominated at RM; New name: MERS-CoV 00:02, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: There are many good reasons why these pages should be moved to their widely used abbreviations. To start with the obvious, these are their WP:COMMONNAMEs universally used by reliable sources and the public, which should replace the extremely lengthy and rarely-used WP:OFFICIALNAMEs per WP:CONCISE, WP:RECOGNIZABILITY, and WP:ACROTITLE. It's hard to imagine that any reader would take the time to type in
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2
(5 words) orSevere acute respiratory syndrome–related coronavirus
(6 words) into the search bar. Before any members of WP:COVID-19 jump in and point me to {{Current COVID-19 Project Consensus}}, rest assured I have read that page and understand that the current consensus of the WikiProject is to use the full name. But WP:CONSENSUSCANCHANGE, and I see the last RM discussion was over a year ago. Most editors who objected to a page move there did so on the grounds of WP:CONSISTENT, so to address that concern I'm requesting any related pages to be moved as well. This also makes them consistent with COVID-19, SARS, and MERS, all of which were moved following successful RMs with similar arguments (Talk:COVID-19/Archive 17 § Requested move 1 March 2021, Talk:SARS § Requested move 8 December 2021, and Talk:MERS § Requested move 15 December 2021).
- Reason: There are many good reasons why these pages should be moved to their widely used abbreviations. To start with the obvious, these are their WP:COMMONNAMEs universally used by reliable sources and the public, which should replace the extremely lengthy and rarely-used WP:OFFICIALNAMEs per WP:CONCISE, WP:RECOGNIZABILITY, and WP:ACROTITLE. It's hard to imagine that any reader would take the time to type in
- X-Men (TV series): nominated at RM; New name: X-Men: The Animated Series 06:08, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Per WP:COMMONNAME (the show is widely referred to as X-Men: The Animated Series by reliable sources), WP:NATURALDAB (natural disambiguations are preferred over parenthetical ones), and WP:PRECISE (
X-Men (TV series)
could refer to the other X-Men TV shows found at X-Men (disambiguation).
- Reason: Per WP:COMMONNAME (the show is widely referred to as X-Men: The Animated Series by reliable sources), WP:NATURALDAB (natural disambiguations are preferred over parenthetical ones), and WP:PRECISE (
July 2022
[edit]- United States House Select Committee on the January 6 Attack public hearings: nominated at RM; New name: January 6 hearings 17:15, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: The current title is too long and wordy to satisfy WP:CONCISE.
January 6 hearings
is the WP:COMMONNAME of the event, and would be WP:CONSISTENT with January 6 commission.
- Reason: The current title is too long and wordy to satisfy WP:CONCISE.
- Template:N/a: nominated at RM (technical); New name: Template:N/A 04:39, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Capitalization error. N/A is spelled as either
N/A
orn/a
, but almost neverN/a
. A template editor or administrator is needed because the page is template-protected.
- Reason: Capitalization error. N/A is spelled as either
- The Dark Knight (film): nominated at RM; New name: The Dark Knight 06:10, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: This page has previously been nominated to be moved to The Dark Knight five times, the last of which was in 2013 (nine years ago). In practically all of those discussions, opponents cited WP:RECENTISM as a reason why the page could not be considered a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC yet. It has now been 14 years since The Dark Knight's release, and there should no longer be any doubt that this film is the primary topic of the term
The Dark Knight
and demonstrates long-term significance, especially considering its numerous accolades and significant cultural impact. The Dark Knight (film) is the most-viewed article on the Dark Knight disambiguation page, and virtually all Google News results for "The Dark Knight" pertain to the film and not the character. Readers who are searching for Batman's alias are also more likely to type inDark Knight
rather thanThe Dark Knight
, and a simple hatnote linking to Batman should be sufficient to address any concerns.
- Reason: This page has previously been nominated to be moved to The Dark Knight five times, the last of which was in 2013 (nine years ago). In practically all of those discussions, opponents cited WP:RECENTISM as a reason why the page could not be considered a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC yet.

- Reason: Per precedent established at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 March 25#You'll get your rent when you fix this damn door!, Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 October 3#Give me your rent, and Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 September 25#Give me rent, this is a non-notable quote not mentioned on the page (WP:R#D8).
- Pile of Poo emoji: nominated at RM; New name: Poop emoji 18:53, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: This is the widely-used WP:COMMONNAME of the emoji, I have rarely seen any sources refer to it as "pile of poo emoji". Also satisfies WP:CONCISE.
- Quartz (magazine): nominated at RfD; Target: Quartz (publication) (notified); notified Animalparty (talk · contribs) 04:59, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: No evidence that Quartz is an online magazine, and it doesn't publish a printed magazine either.
- Sicario (2015 film): nominated at RM; New name: Sicario 04:40, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of the term "Sicario". Of all the pages listed on Sicario, the 2015 film receives the most number of views. Sicario: Day of the Soldado is a partial title match, while Sicario (1994 film) and Sicario (album) are both stubs with low notability.
- 2022 evacuation of the Donetsk People's Republic and the Luhansk People's Republics: nominated at RfD; Target: 2022 evacuation of the Donetsk People's Republic and the Luhansk People's Republic (notified); notified Mzajac (talk · contribs) 20:45, 20 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Typo (extra "s" at the end) left behind from a page move. It is highly unlikely anyone would accidentally add an "s" to "Luhansk People's Republic", a proper name.
- Russia's War Crimes House: nominated at AfD; notified Xx236 (talk · contribs) 21:03, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Does not appear to satisfy WP:GNG.
- Template:Campaignbox 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine: nominated at TfD; notified Viewsridge (talk · contribs) 21:18, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: This sidebar duplicates much of the {{2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine}} navbox, including basically the entire
Military engagements
section. I don't really see how a forked template will serve to benefit readers, and this only means more work for editors who must continually update both templates at the same time.
- Reason: This sidebar duplicates much of the {{2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine}} navbox, including basically the entire
- List of Encanto characters: nominated at AfD; notified RemusSandersRegretsEverything (talk · contribs) 23:33, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: This is essentially a fork of Encanto#Cast (with a lot of copy-and-pasting involved), which is completely unnecessary and unconventional. Character lists for film series are commonplace, but there has only been one Encanto film, so this is premature. A similar page, Madrigal family, was previously merged into Encanto following a merger proposal.

- Reason: This is a very non-standard format, especially with the slash, which makes it an unlikely search term.

- Template:Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool: nominated at TfD; notified 200MLeunscentedAveeno (talk · contribs) 18:38, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Previously deleted under a different name, see Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2022 March 28#Template:Deadpool film series. This is an unnecessary fork of {{X-Men in film}}.
- Template:Bullet Train: nominated at TfD; notified 200MLeunscentedAveeno (talk · contribs) 18:47, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Examining the links in this navbox, Three Assassins is a redirect that links back to the author's page, so it's unclear how it relates to Bullet Train. Maria Beetle (play) is also a redirect, linking to a one-sentence description on Bullet Train (novel). All six links in the Related section are only tangentially related to Bullet Train, and the articles do not mention Bullet Train. If we remove all of these problematic links that violate WP:NAVBOX, only two (the novel and the film) remain, thus failing the WP:NENAN rule of five.

- Filling station: nominated at RM; New name: Gas station 22:54, 17 November 2022 (UTC)Filling station attendant: nominated at RM; New name: Gas station attendant 22:54, 17 November 2022 (UTC)List of filling station chains in North America: nominated at RM; New name: List of gas station chains in North America 22:54, 17 November 2022 (UTC)List of historic filling stations: nominated at RM; New name: List of historic gas stations 22:54, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Who even says "filling station"? According to the article, American English uses "gas station" while British English uses "petrol station". Now, in addition to this article being written in American English, per the Google Books Ngram Viewer "gas station" has been the most common name among the three since 1970, and this has apparently also been the case for British English since the 2000s. There are more entries on Google Scholar for "gas station" than "petrol station", and there are more Google News results for "gas station" than "petrol station".
- List of Gas stations: nominated at RfD; Target: List of filling station chains in North America (notified); notified Justme89 (talk · contribs) 23:11, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: Not only is this redirect miscapitalized, but it also doesn't make sense to redirect this to a page that only lists gas stations in one continent. Gas stations exist in other continents as well, I'm sure.

- Reason: Implausible typo in draftspace. No practical use.
- Gru (Despicable Me): nominated at RM; New name: Gru 19:31, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
- Reason: This is the WP:PRIMARY topic for "Gru" in title case (versus "GRU", in all uppercase). It received the most number of page views in the last 365 days among pages titled "Gru" in title case, which really just includes Gru (rapper) and a handful at Grus (disambiguation). The pages titled "GRU" and "Grus" shouldn't be a problem per WP:SMALLDETAILS.

- Reason: These used to point to sections on Features of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but those sections have since be removed due to notability and WP:FANCRUFT/WP:LISTCRUFT concerns. The current targets no longer mention the redirect title, so the redirects are useless per WP:RDELETE#D8. All incoming links have been removed.
- Suit-kovia: nominated at RfD; Target: Marvel Studios: Assembled (notified); notified Trailblazer101 (talk · contribs) 00:58, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Refers to an obscure joke briefly mentioned in a documentary special. Hard to imagine anyone who would be interested in searching for this term, zero pageviews in the past 30 days, and two news results on Google Search (one of which is a primary source).
- Ocean's 8: nominated at RM; New name: Ocean's Eight 21:15, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: The first sentence in this article's lead states that
Ocean's Eight
is the actual/official title of this film, andOcean's 8
is a stylization. The billing block of the film, seen at the bottom of this poster, corroborates that. In accordance with the convention on film articles, the article's title should reflect the actual title rather than the stylization, see examples: Alien 3, Fantastic Four (2015 film), F9 (film), XXX (2002 film), etc. Spelling out the number after "Ocean's" would also be WP:CONSISTENT with the previous films in this series, namely Ocean's Eleven, Ocean's Twelve, and Ocean's Thirteen. Notice that Ocean's Thirteen is similarly stylized as Ocean's 13 on that film's poster.

- Reason: These categories were created for Wikipedia:WikiProject Animation/Skydance Media work group, but the taskforce had been improperly created without prior discussion (full background here). After two weeks of radio silence at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Film#Skydance Task Force, it became clear that there is not enough interest to warrant the creation of such a taskforce, so it was marked as defunct. The above categories never worked and have been empty for weeks, since the proper code were never even added to {{WikiProject Animation}} or {{WikiProject Film}}, and they will remain empty for the forseeable future unless the taskforce is revived (unlikely, given the creator has been indeffed for WP:CIR issues). There is no reason for these categories to continue existing, as they serve no purpose. Not eligible for C1 as they're tagged as do-not-delete.

- Reason: All future Fantastic Four films will be set in the MCU, and it is unlikely any characters from the previous films will receive their own articles. As we already have Category:Marvel Cinematic Universe drafts, this category is no longer needed.

- Category:WarnerMedia: nominated at CfD (CfM); merging to Category:Warner Bros. Discovery; notified Postdlf (talk · contribs) 16:57, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: I don't know what the state of this category was at the time of the previous CfD discussion last year, but only one page now remains in this category: the main article. All other WB assets and subcats have since been moved to Category:Warner Bros. Discovery, and no new pages will be added to this category in the foreseeable future. As the predecessor to WBD, the WarnerMedia page should be moved there as well, leaving this category up for either merging or deletion.
- Russian invasion of Ukraine (2022–present): nominated at RM; New name: Russian invasion of Ukraine 00:47, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Starting this new RM per the discussion above. This article was moved from its longstanding title of 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine to the current name a week ago, following this RM, on the grounds that the invasion remains ongoing. However, this new title is problematic: it uses parentheses to indicate the years of the conflict,
(2022–present)
, but there are no other articles titled Russian invasion of Ukraine to disambiguate from. As you (should) know, parentheses in article titles are used solely for disambiguation purposes on Wikipedia, but here there is nothing to disambiguate this article from. When I brought this up a few days ago, some argued that there have been other Russian invasions of Ukraine as well, and the DAB page Russian invasion of Ukraine (disambiguation) was subsequently created. However, not only is there still no other article titledRussian invasion of Ukraine
, but even if there was, this article is unequivocally still the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. As there was disagreement above as to whether the developments in Ukraine post-2022 are still considered to be part of the "invasion", I propose moving this article to simplyRussian invasion of Ukraine
, per WP:CONCISE and the misuse of parentheses for pseudo-disambiguation.There is also a second question, concerning the 128 other articles, drafts, templates, and categories (the search results page includes 14 redirects and the main article) that haveRussian invasion of Ukraine
in the title. Regardless of the outcome of this RM, should those pages be moved toRussian invasion of Ukraine
,2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine
, orRussian invasion of Ukraine (2022–present)
? Note that due to the number of affected pages, I won't be adding them to this RM nomination template, but if someone else wishes to do so, they may. InfiniteNexus (talk) 00:47, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

[edit]- Barbenheimer: nominated at AfD; notified Manasbose (talk · contribs) 11:03, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Not sure why this article was created, this is just one of the dozens of viral phenomena/topics of discussion about film that emerge on the Internet every year. Typically, such memes are not notable to justify standalone articles and are simply discussed in their respective film articles; I don't see a reason this should be any different. It is unlikely that this topic will receive significant, sustained coverage, and even if it does, it is too early to tell at this stage, when neither film has even been released. With the current length of the article, it can easily be merged into Barbie (film) and Oppenheimer (film).
- List of most-followed Threads accounts: nominated at AfD; notified John Mordaunt (talk · contribs) 11:18, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Too early for this list to exist; we don't even know how long Threads will last. (For context, the app was released less than a week ago.) Also, there is presently only one source, and that is clearly unreliable. Possibly violates WP:INDISCRIMINATE and WP:NOTCATALOG as well.
- Music of Spider-Verse: nominated at AfD; notified Soulbust (talk · contribs) 01:57, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: This article is an unnecessary fork/split of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (soundtrack) and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (soundtrack), where this information belongs. The music of the Spider-Verse films has not received enough recognition and commentary to justify a standalone article, and the information in this article can easily be merged into a new "Background" section on the soundtrack articles. It is unusual for film series to have a "Music of ..." article unless it is a massive, long-running franchise whose music has been closely analyzed, such as Music of Star Wars, Music of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and Music of The Lord of the Rings film series. This is not the case for Spider-Verse, which has so far only had two installments.
- Music of the Harry Potter films: nominated at AfD; notified 4.245.42.201 (talk · contribs) 02:16, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Despite what the name suggests, this appears to be a WP:FANCRUFTy, WP:INDISCRIMINATE, and largely unsourced list of ... "themes and motifs" in the Harry Potter series, rather than the in-depth behind-the-scenes info and critical analysis you would expect — a stark contrast from other "Music of..." articles such as Music of Star Wars, Music of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and Music of The Lord of the Rings film series. Unless this article is nuked and rewritten into a well-developed article similar to the other three I mentioned, this trivial list of themes should not have its own article.

- Reason: Hmm??? Unclear what the purpose of this category is when we already have Category:X-Men (film series) (note the parentheses), and the other two categories in this category are already subcategories of Category:X-Men (film series). Redundant and unneeded.
- Spider-Man: Lotus: nominated at AfD; notified SaltieChips (talk · contribs) 16:43, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Non-notable fan film that immediately fails WP:GNG and WP:NFILM. Two years since the project was announced, it has yet to receive significant coverage from high-quality sources, only low-quality ones such as CBR or MovieWeb. Focusing on the Internet controversy surrounding it is not enough. Additionally, this article was improperly created
as a means to bypass the AfC process, after the draft pagedespite there already being a draft page (created two years ago) that was previously rejected at AfC by Dan arndt on the grounds of NFILM. (Note that Superman: Solar, another fan film closely related to this one, shouldn't have an article either.)

[edit]- Untitled Jagged Edge Productions cinematic universe: nominated at AfD; notified Di (they-them) (talk · contribs) 02:45, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: With only one film that has been released, an article seems premature and WP:TOOSOON. Per WP:FILMSERIES, a film series should not have its own article until it encompasses at least three films.
- Template:Collaborative real-time editor softwares: nominated at TfD; notified Camoz87 (talk · contribs) 05:11, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

- Template:Google employees: nominated at TfD; notified DjItoktok (talk · contribs) 23:20, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: I have never seen a navbox of this kind, and I don't think it's appropriate. For starters, this template was created by a blocked sock, has exactly one transclusion, received 10 views in the past 365 days, and is improperly formatted. On top of that, this fails points #3, 4, and 5 of WP:NAVBOX, and I'm not sure readers will find this useful for navigation purposes. We already have Category:Google employees, which is more appropriate. InfiniteNexus (talk) 23:20, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
- The Expendables 4: nominated at RM; New name: Expend4bles 05:07, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Per the film's billing block, press release, MPAA rating certificate, and third-party sources, the official title of this film was changed by the studio from The Expendables 4 to Expen4bles in June. This is in contrast to Fantastic Four (2015 film) and Scream 4, whose logo stylizations were mere stylizations rather than official titles, per their billing blocks ([1] [2]). Expend4bles is also the COMMONNAME, widely used by high-quality sources: [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20]. Even in news articles that do use Expendables 4 (or, rarely, The Expendables 4), Expend4bles is acknowledged as the actual title in prose: [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27].

[edit]- Draft:Wakanda 4eva: nominated at RfD; Target: Black Panther: Wakanda Forever; notified 4evamam (talk · contribs) 19:14, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Nonstandard spelling of "forever"; not a useful redirect. The draft has no history besides redirection, so it's unclear why it was created in the first place.
- AsGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3: nominated at RfD; Target: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (notified); notified HAL333 (talk · contribs) 19:29, 1 October 2023 (UTC)AsGuardians of the Galaxy Vol.3: nominated at RfD; Target: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3; notified HAL333 (talk · contribs) 19:29, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Made-up name.
- HTTP cookie: nominated at RM; New name: Cookies 00:34, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: First, WP:COMMONNAME. "HTTP cookie" is not a very common name for cookies on the Internet — in fact, I don't think I had heard of them being called that until I found this article. The Google Ngram Viewer shows a dramatic drop in usage after 2005, when it spiked and never recovered. This article is currently buried near the very bottom of Cookie (disambiguation) and took me a while to find because Cookies redirects to Cookie (the food). Per WP:SMALLDETAILS, the plural form should be sufficient to distinguish Internet cookies from edible ones, plus there is clear evidence that Internet cookies are the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for the term "cookies". HTTP cookie actually dwarfs Cookie in terms of pageviews, but obviously the food is the long-term primary topic for "cookie". For the plural form "cookies", however, this is clearly the one most people are and will be looking for.

- Reason: Indiscriminate, trivial, non-notable, and poorly sourced listcruft and fancruft.
- Category:Microsoft Surface products graphical timeline templates: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified Smithr32 (talk · contribs) 21:40, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Not useful unless there is at least one more graphical timeline template for Microsoft Surface products.
- Ian Miles Cheong: nominated at AfD; notified Isi96 (talk · contribs) 06:30, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ian Miles Cheong. Unfortunately, because the page is not identical to the previously deleted version, it is ineligible for WP:G4. PROD was also declined because of the previous AfD. In that discussion, there was strong consensus that the subject is a non-notable "simp and troll", as articulated by Vice. Nothing has changed in the three months since.

- Reason: <deep breath> Desperation Move is an avoided double redirect of Desperation Attack, which was in turn a redirect left behind from a move to Desperation attack, which was in turn an article "that had something to do with video games" that was converted to a redirect before being deleted in 2016, after Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2016 November 10#Desperation attack.
November 2023
[edit]- American fuzzy lop (fuzzer): nominated at RM; New name: American fuzzy lop 17:47, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: WP:SMALLDETAILS. The use of uppercase vs. lowercase, aided by hatnotes, is sufficient to disambiguate between the rabbit breed and the software fuzzer. Both articles have similar pageview numbers, so neither is a primary topic over the other.
- Template:Aladdin: nominated at RM; New name: Template:Disney's Aladdin 23:35, 11 November 2023 (UTC)Template:Aladdin and the Magic Lamp: nominated at RM; New name: Template:Aladdin 23:35, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: The original Middle Eastern folktale is the primary topic.
- Spidey and His Amazing Friends (2021 TV series): nominated at RM; New name: Spidey and His Amazing Friends 04:17, 13 November 2023 (UTC)Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends (1981 TV series): nominated at RM; New name: Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends 04:17, 13 November 2023 (UTC)Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends: nominated at RM; New name: Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends (disambiguation) 04:17, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: WP:SMALLDETAILS.
Spidey
andSpider-Man
are distinct enough to differentiate between the two shows.
- Reason: WP:SMALLDETAILS.
- Mater (Cars): nominated at RM; New name: Tow Mater 18:43, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Not the common name, but conforms to WP:NATURAL and WP:FILMCHARACTERS.
- Category:Special effect of specific films: nominated at CfDS (C2A); New name: Category:Special effects of specific films 20:03, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Usually written in plural. Matches article titles.

- Reason: No reason for this to be additionally disambiguated. "Novel" has a second, non-literature definition, but Novel and Category:Novel templates are already undisambiguated as the primary topic, plus I don't imagine anyone will mistakenly think "novel navigational boxes" means "new or unusual navigational boxes".
- Template:Inception: nominated at TfD; notified 6644gogogunship (talk · contribs) 23:06, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
- The Fast and the Furious (2001 film): nominated at RM; New name: The Fast and the Furious 08:01, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: The franchise is both officially and commonly named Fast & Furious. The extended form, The Fast and the Furious, almost exclusively refers to the original film, so WP:SMALLDETAILS applies. There was a time where the franchise was also named The Fast and the Furious (see the third film), but this has not been the case since 2009 (see the fourth film). Per WP:ONEOTHER, a hatnote on the film article pointing to the franchise will suffice. A similar situation exists with The Evil Dead (the original film) vs. Evil Dead (the franchise). InfiniteNexus (talk) 08:01, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
- Batman & Robin (film): nominated at RM; New name: Batman & Robin 01:19, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: The only articles listed at Batman and Robin bearing the title "Batman & Robin" are the film, the soundtrack for the film, and a video game based on the film, among which the film is obviously the primary topic. Per WP:SMALLDETAILS, an ampersand is sufficiently distinct from the word "and" for the title "Batman & Robin" to be unambiguous, and a hatnote linking to the Batman and Robin DAB page will suffice.
- Crazy Stupid Love (song): nominated at RM; New name: Crazy Stupid Love 23:26, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: WP:SMALLDETAILS; the two commas in Crazy, Stupid, Love are sufficient to naturally disambiguate the song from the film. Hatnotes may be used to address any potential confusion. Per WP:ONEOTHER, the disambiguation page is also unnecessary and should be deleted.
- Apple Watch health monitoring patent dispute: nominated at AfD; notified ElijahPepe (talk · contribs) 01:37, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: Clearly not notable for a standalone article. Per WP:NOPAGE, this more suitable as a section on the main Apple Watch page than an entire article. Fails WP:NEVENT, WP:NOTNEWS, and WP:10YEAR.
- Talk:Mars Inc.: nominated at RM; New name: Mars, Incorporated 19:42, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
- Reason: This is a request to overturn the previous RM that was closed several weeks ago, per this discussion. WP:NCCORP explicitly states:
If the legal status is used to disambiguate, it should be included in the article title using the company's own preference for either the abbreviated or unabbreviated form. Likewise, whether or not to include a comma prior to the legal status should be governed by company usage.
Contrary to popular belief, WP:COMMONNAME is not the only criterion we consider when deciding an article's name; WP:NATURAL states that when the most common name of a subject is ambiguous (emphasis added):Using an alternative name that the subject is also commonly called in English reliable sources, albeit not as commonly as the preferred-but-ambiguous title, is sometimes preferred. However, do not use obscure or made-up names.
By definition, natural disambiguation disregards the most common name, so in the case of proper names, we fall back to the official name. For titles of works, we use the subtitle even if it commonly omitted in sources; for companies, we use the official legal suffix. "Mars Inc.", however, is a made-up name using a made-up legal suffix (directly contravening NATURAL) masquerading as the company's official name. We can make things up if it's a common noun or descriptor, but we're now asserting that "Inc." (note the capitalization) is part of the company's name, which is false. There is no such company called "Mars Inc.", or "Mars, Inc.", or "Mars Incorporated". MOS:TM instructs us to modify trademarks that are stylized in a way that breaches our MoS; corporate legal suffixes do not, and none of our PAGs give editors free rein to arbitrarily modify a trademarked name without reason. WP:CONCISE discusses truncating excessively long names, not altering punctuation and inventing abbreviations.
- Reason: This is a request to overturn the previous RM that was closed several weeks ago, per this discussion. WP:NCCORP explicitly states:
January 2024
[edit]- History (American TV network): nominated at RM; New name: History Channel 22:35, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: Per WP:COMMONNAME, WP:NAMECHANGES, and WP:NATURAL. Over a decade after the History Channel changed its name to just History, sources (and the general public) continue to widely use its former name, including: NYT, WaPo, LA Times, Vulture, Forbes, AP, The Guardian, WSJ, THR, The New Yorker, Bloomberg, CNN, The Daily Telegraph, TheWrap, Business Insider, The Independent, Variety, Deadline, TVLine, Time, NBC News, CBS News, etc. These are all articles from 2023. InfiniteNexus (talk) 22:35, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
- Olympus: nominated at RM; New name: Olympus (disambiguation) 06:16, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: The mountain in Greece (Mount Olympus) is the clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC both in terms of pageviews and long-term significance, so Olympus should redirect there. The only page with more pageviews is Hercules (1997 film) ... which is centered on the mountain in Greece (and obviously, we wouldn't point Olympus there). In third place is Olympus Mons ... which is named after the mountain in Greece.
- A Visit from St. Nicholas: nominated at RM; New name: The Night Before Christmas 07:53, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: WP:COMMONNAME.

- Psycho (1960 film): nominated at RM; New name: Psycho 19:46, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: As one of the most influential films of all time, this is clearly the primary topic of the term "Psycho", both in terms of long-term significance and pageviews. It is also worth noting that while the informal term "psycho" can mean either psychopath or psychotic, Wikipedia is not a dictionary.
- DeSantis: nominated at RM; New name: DeSantis (surname) 01:35, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: Ron DeSantis is the primary topic, so DeSantis should be redirected there. See all-time pageviews and WikiNav. Now, I know what you're thinking: recentism, right? Well, we see that after Casey DeSantis (the wife), John DeSantis is ranked third place in terms of all-time pageviews. If we go back to before DeSantis ran for governor, he still received the second-most pageviews after John. John DeSantis is apparently an actor whose article consists solely of three filmography tables — not very notable, especially long-term–wise.

[edit]- Alien 2: nominated at RfD; Target: Alien 2: On Earth (notified); notified Malcolmxl5 (talk · contribs) 20:18, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: Proposing a retarget to Aliens (film). Although Alien 2: On Earth (apparently a real film) does contain the title "Alien 2", Aliens — the actual sequel to Alien (film) — is without question more notable and the more likely target when readers search for "Alien 2", seeking to find the sequel to the first film (but perhaps not remembering its title).
- Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937 film): nominated at RM; New name: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs 20:01, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: Since the fairy tale is titled "Snow White" and not "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs", the original Disney film can be regarded as the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for the expanded term. Not only because it receives the most pageviews, but also due to its cultural significance and impact. Per WP:SMALLDETAILS, readers who deliberate type "and the Seven Dwarfs" are most likely looking for the film, so it is adequately, WP:NATURALly, and WP:CONCISEly disambiguated from other topics.
- Google Stadia: nominated at RM; New name: Stadia 04:54, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: In previous RMs, editors argued that Stadia is not the primary topic of "stadia". After examining this claim, I do not believe this is true — and it has nothing to do with recentism. Of the seven articles listed at Stadia (disambiguation), only one is actually titled "Stadia", Stadia (Caria). Two articles, Stadium and Stadion (unit), have "stadia" down as the plural form. "Stadiums" is vastly more common than "stadia", and almost all major dictionaries list it before "stadia": [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] (the OED was the only outlier). Stadion (unit) and Stadia (Caria) are both stubs about ancient topics, so they are clearly not as notable. As for the remaining articles, Stadia mark, Stadiametric rangefinding, and Helsinki Polytechnic Stadia, all three are WP:PARTIAL title matches that can't even be abbreviated as "stadia" and should arguably be removed from the DAB page.So, really, recentism doesn't come into play since there is nothing else that is commonly referred to as "stadia", and no one really says "stadia" when talking about sports (including us). Google Stadia has received more than double the pageviews received by the six other articles combined, and that is data since 2015, when Stadia did not exist. In addition to WP:CONCISE and WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, this also solves the problem of "Google Stadia" being an incorrect name some publications made up. InfiniteNexus (talk) 04:54, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- Coachella (festival): nominated at RM; New name: Coachella 23:24, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: The festival is the primary topic of "Coachella". The disambiguation page only lists two complete title matches, Coachella (festival) and Coachella, California; the rest are partial title matches that are rarely used without a qualifier, so we can disregard them. In terms of pageviews, the festival dwarfs the city 13 times; in terms of long-term significance, the festival is
one of the largest, most famous, and most profitable music festivals in the United States and the world
, according to the article itself. This is comparable to Stanford, where the university receives nine times the nearest full title match; and Woodstock, where the festival receives seven times the nearest full title match. Ngrams show more hits for the festival than the city, and it's not even close. Google surfaces info and results for the festival. The festival also receives six times the number of attendees than the city's population.
- Reason: The festival is the primary topic of "Coachella". The disambiguation page only lists two complete title matches, Coachella (festival) and Coachella, California; the rest are partial title matches that are rarely used without a qualifier, so we can disregard them.

- Reason: The film, The Wizard of Oz (1939 film), and the novel, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, are sufficient distinct from each other to fall under WP:SMALLDETAILS. The original novel was not published as The Wizard of Oz (according to the article, it has sometimes been reprinted with the film's title due to the film's popularity, meaning the publishers wanted to associate themselves with the film as a companion piece, which only proves that the film is more widely associated with that term) and is thus WP:NATURALly disambiguated; this is similar to The Fellowship of the Ring (the book) vs. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (the film), or The Shawshank Redemption (the film) vs. Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption (the book).Perhaps a more excellent example would be Nineteen Eighty-Four, which is not titled 1984 (novel) despite often being reprinted and known as such. The book and the year are both equally and highly notable, but because of the differences in their names, they are disambiguated NATURALly. Due to The Wizard of Oz's cultural impact and significance, being one of the most influential films of all time, comparable to that of Nineteen Eighty-Four, it can easily be regarded as the primary topic for the exact term "The Wizard of Oz", and this is reinforced by pageviews. A Google Search for "The Wizard of Oz" surfaces results almost exclusively for the film. InfiniteNexus (talk) 19:23, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
- Greco-Persian Wars: nominated at RM; New name: Persian Wars 08:10, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: Not only is "Persian Wars" the overwhelmingly COMMONNAME of the conflict [38], but it is also more WP:CONCISE. Persian Wars (disambiguation) lists three other conflicts, all of which are WP:PARTIAL title matches that cannot be primary topics since they are never referred to as simply "Persian Wars". There is also Persian Wars (video game), which is obviously of negligible notability. Greco-Persian Wars dwarfs every other article listed on the DAB page in terms of pageviews, and Persian Wars already redirects here. The Oxford Encyclopedia of Ancient Greece and Rome lists "Persian Wars" as the common name and "Greco-Persian Wars" the extended form, as does The Oxford Dictionary of the Classical World, the World History Encyclopedia, ThoughtCo, history textbooks [39] [40], English translation of Herodotus [41] [42], etc.

- Snow White and the Huntsman: nominated at RM; New name: Snow White & the Huntsman 05:34, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: The current title violates MOS:AMPERSAND, which states:
Retain an ampersand when it is a legitimate part of the style of a proper noun, the title of a work, or a trademark, such as in Up & Down or AT&T.
Similar to works such as Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, Percy Jackson & the Olympians, Fast & Furious, Batman & Robin (film), Dungeons & Dragons, Hobbs & Shaw, and Deadpool & Wolverine, the correct title of this film uses an ampersand, not the word "and", as seen in the billing block at the bottom of the poster. Many external style guides instruct copyeditors to change ampersands in titles of works to "and", so the common name is irrelevant; this is a matter of styling, which is what our MoS is for. Wikipedia's style is to use whatever is in the actual name; external style guides that other sources follow do not dictate our style. Additionally, the use of an ampersand vs. "and" does not negatively impact recognizability or any of the five WP:CRITERIA, and for what it's worth, there are plenty of reliable sources that use an ampersand: [43] [44] [45] [46] [47] [48].

- Reason: The current title violates MOS:AMPERSAND, which states:
- Syncopy Inc.: nominated at RM; New name: Syncopy 06:51, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: For some reason, Syncopy redirects to Syncope (medicine). The former spelling is not mentioned anywhere on the article, and I could find no evidence online that syncopy is anything but a misspelling of syncope. Possibly, the redirect was created as the phonetic spelling of the medical term, since Syncopy Inc. was not created until two years later. As no other article titled "syncopy" currently exists, and syncopy appears to be an uncommon misspelling of syncope, the production company should not need to be disambiguated.

[edit]- HP Inc.: nominated at RM; New name: HP 23:37, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: Primary topic. Probably half of the links on HP (disambiguation) are rarely, if ever, referred to as "HP" — most of the articles don't mention "HP" in the lead — and should probably be removed from the list anyway per WP:DABACRONYM. The most notable entries that are commonly referred to as "HP" are HP Inc. and its predecessor, Hewlett-Packard, the latter of which was commonly referred to by its full name and is therefore naturally disambiguated. Pageviews show Harry Potter with a sizable lead (unsurprising, but no evidence suggests "HP" is commonly used to mean "Harry Potter"), followed by several similar cases before HP. Horsepower is an interesting case, as it's arguably equally notable in terms of long-term significance, but WP:DIFFCAPS comes into play. Plenty of other two-letter companies are undisambiguated or redirect to the company's article, e.g. LG, GE, BP, EA, GQ, VW, QQ, 3M, etc.

[edit]- Template:Ryan Reynolds: nominated at TfD; notified BoythisisworsethanthetimeIwassus (talk · contribs) 06:43, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: Violates WP:FILMNAV, which states:
Filmographies (and similar) of individuals should also not be included in navboxes, unless the individual concerned could be considered a primary creator of the material in question.
This navbox consists almost entirely of films starring Reynolds in which he happened to also receive writer and/or producer credit (something very common in Hollywood). He was not the primary creator, i.e. director, of any of the films listed. The few valid links that remain fail the WP:NENAN rule of five.
- Reason: Violates WP:FILMNAV, which states:
- Template:Matt Shakman: nominated at TfD; notified Richiekim (talk · contribs) 04:35, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Reason: Fails the WP:NENAN rule of five, with only three existing articles. Does not merit a navbox at this time.
