Government of Wales Act → Wales Act – WP:TITLECON, the Wales Act 2014, the Wales Act 2017 have both been passed, so the name norm has changed away from "Government of Wales Act" - currently "Wales Act" redirects to the 1978 law regarding the failed referendum, but this would be referred to on this new "Wales Act" page in the same way the failed 1978 referendum is referred to in the Scotland Act. The Scotland Act lists the act for the 1978 referendum, and all subsequent laws in this area. The Northern Ireland Act page includes pages that don't strictly have the name "Northern Ireland Act", e.g. the Northern Ireland Constitution Act 1973. DotCoder (talk) 16:47, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose - There are two laws on that DAB are still use "Government of Wales", so for DAB purposes should stay. Would support Wales Act becoming a separate DAB page for the 1978, 2014 and 2017 acts (rather than the current redirect). There can be a link on either page pointing to the other DAB page.
