McAllister Field and Yakima Air TerminalMcAllister Field – This article was originally named "Yakima Air Terminal". It was renamed (without discussion) because this article is about the whole airport, not just the passenger terminal building. I believe that "McAllister Field" would be a clearer and more appropriate name.

  • Comment Can you cite sources that confirm the shorter common name? The official website uses "Yakima Air Terminal – McAllister Field". 162 etc. (talk) 14:59, 30 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • If the official website uses "Yakima Air Terminal", then that should be the name that is used for the article. However, the page for the airport in Redmond, Oregon is named Roberts Field but the official website uses "Redmond Municipal Airport - Roberts Field". Johnj1995 (talk) 23:03, 30 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

Requested move 19 May 2022 edit

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: no consensus; moved back to Yakima Air Terminal. We still (frustratingly) have too little participation to reach consensus, so per WP:NOCON I'm reverting to Yakima Air Terminal, which was the previous stable title before an April 2022 undiscussed move.
