  Question: Lhasa Convention and Lhasa Treaty are both redirects to this page. So where is the confusion? Polyamorph (talk) 16:22, 25 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
Dominique Roux This article was also moved back in 2021 (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Convention_of_Lhasa&oldid=1020573395), so might not be uncontroversial. -Kj cheetham (talk) 16:35, 25 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose - Wikipedia articles are named after WP:COMMONNAMES used in reliable sources. Official names are not used. If there is need for disambiguation, then they are disambiguated using the year of the treaty. (I have now added multiple ciations to WP:RS.) -- Kautilya3 (talk) 08:22, 27 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose. No need for any move. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:47, 29 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
