– This is a follow-up discussion to the (even larger) mass-RM at Talk:222nd Broadcast Operations Detachment, which established consensus not to use "Name (Acronym)"-style titles. Putting the acronym first, resulting in "Acronym (Name)" instead, is no better, so these should be moved to either the full name or a properly-disambiguated acronym for the same reason as the previous batch. * Pppery * it has begun... 22:44, 27 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

  • Question - Who will determine whether the new title is the acronym or the full name? This will depend on WP:COMMONNAME which may require individual discussions. ~Kvng (talk) 15:35, 30 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
    I did here. If anyone disagrees with my judgement they are welcome to comment here about it, or file a new requested move. Another thing to note is thaty the acronym is in many cases ambiguous, so WP:NATURALDIS is also involved. * Pppery * it has begun... 15:54, 30 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Support. After reading the previous discussion, this seems like a harmless change for the sake of clarity and style. Though I didn't look at all these particular changes closely, the biology related ones check out. ― Synpath 04:25, 3 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
