Issues to be mediated

What is this dispute about? What sections, sentences, or issues in the article(s) can you not agree on? If you are the editor who opened this request, list these issues to be mediated under "Primary issues". If you did not open this request, you can add additional issues to be mediated under "Additional issues". The issues to be mediated would be properly agreed upon later, if this request for mediation is accepted.

Primary issues (added by the filing party)

1. What article to give the 'Porsche' article title after a split of Porsche article.
2. WP:TITLE and related guidelines lack the recognition that common use of a term may be quite different between "average en.wiki editors" and "average en.wiki readers".

• The abstract of the issues in the current discussion is summarized at the beginning of Talk:Porsche#Porsche SE and Porsche AG split.
• The underlying issues are summarized at the beginning of Wikipedia_talk:Article titles/Archive 47#RfC: When COMMONNAME depends on country, culture, or demography in the Issue Section.
• The second issue may not be appropriate for MedCom to judge on, but it is the source of this dispute, so it is very preferable to me if the decision could indicate MedCom's view on it in some fashion.

Additional issues (added by other parties)

• Additional issue 1
• Additional issue 2
