Battle of Pozzuolo → Battle of Pozzuolo del Friuli – Correct name in Italian Army historiography as there are three towns named Pozzuolo in Italy (near Udine, Milan, and Perugia) noclador (talk) 14:41, 6 November 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 00:30, 14 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

More arguments for a move:

Italian Army official website about the battle: La battaglia di Pozzuolo del Friuli
Italian wikipedia it:Battaglia di Pozzuolo del Friuli
Italian Army brigade named after the battle: Brigata di Cavalleria "Pozzuolo del Friuli",

In Italian military historiography the battle is known as Pozzuolo del Friuli, because there is also Pozzuolo in Umbria, and Pozzuolo Martesana in Lombardy. noclador (talk) 15:15, 8 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Tepid opposition – While there are several towns named Pozzuolo, none of the others have (to my knowledge) given name to battles and disambiguation is therefore unnecessary. There was a Battle of Pozzolo, so I've added hatnotes to distinguish between the two. I was not able to locate scholarly, English-language references to make a case for WP:COMMONNAME.

Support given the Battle of Pozzolo beneficial. In ictu oculi (talk) 13:19, 17 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
Oppose - there seem to be plenty of sources not using the full name to look like a WP:COMMONNAME and also it's more WP:CONCISE at present. The other battle is spelled differently so a distinguishing hatnote is sufficient. — Amakuru (talk) 11:27, 23 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
