The result of the proposal was move. JPG-GR (talk) 04:40, 4 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

SourceForge → SourceForge (disambiguation) — Most of the inbound links to SourceForge really should go to SourceForge.net. I would also argue that most people who are looking up SourceForge except to see information on SourceForge.net, rather than the company or software that powers the site. It thus makes sense to me to move this article to SourceForge (disambiguation) and then redirect SourceForge to SourceForge.net. —Andareed (talk) 04:02, 29 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Survey edit

Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with *'''Support''' or *'''Oppose''', then sign your comment with ~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.

Support: I'm honestly surprised that this DOESN'T redirect to SourceForge.net as it stands now. How is the software (and for that matter, the parent company) relevant outside of the code repository, anyway? Orethrius (talk) 09:59, 30 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
Support I think that SourceForge.net would be the commonest search target of SourceForge. Snowman (talk) 15:39, 1 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
