Meituan-Dianping → Meituan – Meituan-Dianping has been renamed to Meituan. Ckh3111 (talk) 13:54, 1 November 2020 (UTC) —Relisting. (t · c) buidhe 22:11, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

Any source for this renaming? (please  mention me on reply; thanks!) Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 17:26, 1 November 2020 (UTC)

@Emir of Wikipedia: Please see source https://www1.hkexnews.hk/listedco/listconews/sehk/2020/1022/2020102200948.pdf.72.187.41.178 (talk) 17:41, 6 November 2020 (UTC)

• The article should only be moved if the new official name is also the new WP:COMMONNAME. Could you provide some recent sources to show that the commonly used name is changing? BegbertBiggs (talk) 00:41, 14 November 2020 (UTC)

Please see e.g. usage by Forbes, Bloomberg and Reuters: https://www.forbes.com/sites/brendanahern/2020/11/30/china-market-update-msci-index-rebalance-drives-volumes-meituan--autohome-deliver-strong-q3-results/, https://www.bloomberg.com/press-releases/2020-11-30/meituan-announces-financial-results-for-the-three-months-ended-september-30-2020 (+ other related news: https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/3690:HK), also Reuters started using this shorter name in late October (https://www.reuters.com/companies/3690.HK/key-developments, linked to company profile page https://www.reuters.com/companies/3690.HK/profile). This is a trivial case: Move. --Paju~enwiki (talk) 12:49, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

• Support per WP:NAMECHANGES and WP:COMMONNAME. Sources published after the name change generally use the short form "Meituan": Chinese delivery giant Meituan moves to expand live-streaming reach with new WeChat mini-program, China’s ‘Amazon of services’ says it welcomes Beijing’s stricter oversight; applying NAMECHANGES, this means we should use the new name. Plus, the short form "Meituan" is more commonly used anyway: for example, this Business Insider article published before the name change referred to the company as "Meituan" without one using "Dianping" in the article. feminist (talk) free Hong Kong 04:16, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
