Requested move 4 July 2023

edit
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. Editors objected on the grounds that the term was ambiguous, but these objections were insufficient to sway supporters, who argued both that it wasn't ambiguous due to the lack of federal lands in DC, and due to the natural disambiguation of "DC".

With strength of argument on each side roughly equal we defer to the level of community support, and in this light we find a rough consensus to move. (closed by non-admin page mover) BilledMammal (talk) 18:43, 19 July 2023 (UTC)Reply


List of federal lands in Washington (state)List of federal lands in Washington – As part of a follow-up to Talk:List_of_mountain_passes_in_Washington_(state)#Requested move 16 June 2023, this article should not have parenthetical disambiguation when there is nothing at the base name per WP:QUALIFIER. While there are federal lands in D.C., I believe the state is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. There should be a hatnote to direct users to something about federal lands in D.C.; probably the best target is List of the United States National Park System official units with a row anchor added to link to the D.C. part of the table. Other possibilities include National Capital Parks and Template:Protected areas of the District of Columbia. Mdewman6 (talk) 20:24, 4 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Properties, perhaps, but not federal lands. Mdewman6 (talk) 00:14, 9 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
Support. If an article on lands in DC did exist, there would be no PTOPIC, but there is no article, so unnecessary disambiguation. CLYDE TALK TO ME/STUFF DONE (I will not see your reply if you don't mention me) 03:33, 17 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
