The result of the move request was: not moved. Clear consensus not to move the article (closed by non-admin page mover) Megan B.... It’s all coming to me till the end of time 16:44, 1 January 2022 (UTC)Reply


– Giving need of consistency between two articles and their parent article Zürich (with umlaut) where in the city's talk page has no consensus to move, i think these articles should be moved to umlaut version. I believe those page moves would be opposed by most users, particularly about Zurich Protocols. If these page cannot moved, at least someone can create the redirect for these articles with umlaut version. 116.206.35.23 (talk) 14:10, 25 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose We should wait a few months for a consensus on the Zurich/Zürich page. However I agree that there should be a redirect for the umlaut version. Ale3353 (talk) 16:52, 25 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
I’ve just created a redirect for ‘Zürich Protocols’. Ale3353 (talk) 16:56, 25 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose for now unless there were clear consensus about Zurich/Zürich spelling issue. Provisionally, redirect to Zurich Protocols sounds more fine. 125.167.59.84 (talk) 23:38, 25 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose, since Zurich and Zürich are both accepted variations in English, with Zurich still the most WP:COMMONNAME according to Google NGRAM. Zurich is even more dominant when talking about the Zurich Protocols. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pilaz (talkcontribs) 17:48, 26 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose, since "Zurich" is the common name in English, per the evidence presented above and in the Zurich RM, and because moving articles to be consistent with titles that there is no consensus for does not align well with WP:CONSISTENT, which I would read as desiring that a pattern is established by consensus, rather than fait accompli - note also that these moves would make the article titles inconsistent with the pattern for most Zurich Articles, such as Lake Zurich (moved by consensus) and Zurich Airport (prior to the undiscussed bold move).

  • Oppose Zurich Protocols - that name isn't tightly tied enough to the current name of the city for a follow-up RM to be in order after a No Consensus discussion. Zurich metropolitan area probably should follow the convention at Zürich per the argument of internal consistency - it certainly should follow the result of the discussion at Talk:Lake Zurich.
