The result of the move request was: not moved. It has been determined that the natural, undisambiguated name is preferable. -- Tavix (talk) 23:40, 15 April 2017 (UTC)Reply


Mobile Telephony of SerbiaMTS (Telekom Srbija) – Mobile Telephony of Serbia no longer exists, and it's abbreviation mt:s is no longer in use. It was replaced with a new consumer brand "mts", by the owner of both Mobile Telephony of Serbia and mts. Serceg (talk) 20:18, 4 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

  • @Serceg: MTS has many other meanings. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 20:27, 4 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
  • Hey, Serceg. May you please revert the title back to "Mobile Telephony of Serbia" and then do the WP:RM instead? The "Mts (Consumer Brand of Telekom Srbija)" looks awkward at best. --George Ho (talk) 20:27, 4 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
    •   Done :: see discussion hereinabove. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 20:39, 4 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
    • Hi George Ho. It was already reverted back to "Mobile Telephony of Serbia" so I will do the WP:RM now. Yes, it looks awkward, I wasn't sure how to solve it with so many MTS usages. Does "mts (Telekom Srbija)" sound correctly? Thank you. Serceg (talk) 20:52, 4 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
      • Oh... no need. The RM is already done, Serceg, on your behalf. --George Ho (talk) 20:57, 4 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

        Nonetheless, you can alternatively go for MTS (Telekom Srbija). George Ho (talk) 20:58, 4 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

        • Sorry George Ho, first time doing a move so I might be slow to do it properly. Just to make sure should I wait for conclusion of the first request, do I change the first one, or make a new one for mts (Telekom Srbija) By the way, they use lower-case letters for their brand.

  • Weak oppose. They change name branding and styling way too often, and I'm not sure if we should follow; if we do, we should probably lowercase the mts part. The current title has the virtue of being WP:NATURAL, even if out of circulation somewhat. No such user (talk) 13:38, 11 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose the natural disambiguation is preferable here. TonyBallioni (talk) 20:55, 11 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
