Technical requests
editUncontroversial technical requests
edit- Ar-pi-uck-i → Abiaka (currently a redirect back to Ar-pi-uck-i) (move · discuss) – It should be the title because it's more concise and it is the spelling of his name used by the Seminole Tribe of Florida and modern historians. Ygolirt (talk) 08:46, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Braathens Regional Aviation → Malmö Aviation (currently a redirect back to Braathens Regional Aviation) (move · discuss) – Reflect main name of Airline. Avoid confusion Officialworks (talk) 20:08, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Fatawā of Osama bin Laden → Fatāwā of Osama bin Laden (currently a redirect back to Fatawā of Osama bin Laden) (move · discuss) – Missing macron. CyberOne25 (talk) 23:04, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- @CyberOne25 the entire article, except for the opening, uses "fatwā" consistently, and has been stable at that. – robertsky (talk) 00:51, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- KTAV Publishing House → Ktav Publishing House (currently a redirect back to KTAV Publishing House) (move · discuss) – ALL CAPS looks like a marketing thing. Except in the introduction and infobox, the article uses "Ktav". The New York Times uses "Ktav"; see [1], or [view-source:https://www.nytimes.com/1992/12/20/nyregion/where-the-elves-wear-yarmulkes.html?pagewanted=all view source] if you don't have a subscription. Even the company's own website, where you'd expect KTAV to be consistent, uses "Ktav" repeatedly in their about-us page. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 04:08, 3 September 2024 (UTC)

edit- Darren Baker (baseball) → Darren Baker (move · discuss) – the baseball player has more significance than the footballer, thus more people will be searching for him on Wikipedia Songwaters (talk) 23:12, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- @Songwaters Current arrangement is fine considering WP:RECENTISM. – robertsky (talk) 00:56, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
