Technical requests
editUncontroversial technical requests
edit- Senja (municipality) (currently a redirect to Senja Municipality) → Senja Municipality (move · discuss) – use standardized naming for municipalities in Norway Jay1279 (talk) 19:54, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- Victoria_Lynn → Victoria Lynn Carroll (move · discuss) – Victoria is married and has changed her professional title. The change has been made on her IMDB and personal web pages: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3055998/, https://www.voices.com/profile/victorialynncarroll. Thanks! HellenicMagesty (talk) 22:24, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- BULOG → Bulog (currently a redirect back to BULOG) (move · discuss) – While all-caps name "BULOG" is used at its official website, almost all reliable sources didn't use all-caps variant, just as usual wordmark "Bulog", like this one from Kontan. This is necessary after Bulog changed its logo in May this year. 103.111.100.82 (talk) 03:01, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- Joondalup line → Yanchep line (currently a redirect back to Joondalup line) (move · discuss) – The line has been renamed the Yanchep line upon the opening of an extension to Yanchep on 14 July 2024. Steelkamp (talk) 04:36, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- Sixtieth birthday in East Asia → Sixtieth birthday in the Sinosphere (move · discuss) – Recently this got moved after my uncontested move discussion. I think the closer didn't see that I had requested an alternate target right after the orig proposal. The reason for this alt target is explained in the move discussion, also expanded upon in here. 211.43.120.242 (talk) 06:40, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- Second Mujib Rahman ministry → Second Mujibur Rahman ministry (currently a redirect back to Second Mujib Rahman ministry) (move · discuss) – WP:CONSISTENT — Hemant Dabral (📞 • ✒) 16:49, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

edit- Sharda University → Sharda University, Greater Noida (move · discuss) – a new university by same name is opened in Agra, so remove the confusion by adding location in the name. Third party refrance for establishment of a university with same name at Agra - https://lntedutech.com/newsroom/collegeconnect/lnt-edutech-partners-with-sharda-university-agra-for-integrated-engineering-programs/ & https://facultytick.com/2024/06/10/sharda-university-agra-invited-applications-from-eligible-candidates-for-the-following-post-of-teaching-faculty-recruitment/ Note - Both universities are by same management, but different entities. 14.139.183.119 (talk) 20:51, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- This can likely wait until the university at Agra is notable enough for its own article. --Ahecht (TALK

- Bhāskara II → Bhaskara II (currently a redirect back to Bhāskara II) (move) – WP:COMMONNAME in English. SKAG123 (talk) 19:59, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- This seems unhelpful. The spelling "Bhāskara" is common (maybe dominant) in academic sources, and spelling names with correct diacritics and including a redirect from an easier to type variant doesn't hurt anyone. –jacobolus (t) 02:46, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- T'Boli, South Cotabato → Tboli, South Cotabato (move · discuss) – There is no apostrophe in Tboli as per Presidential Decree No. 407 dated March 5, 1974 on CREATING THE MUNICIPALITY OF TBOLI IN THE PROVINCE OF SOUTH COTABATO Lexi.acosta (talk) 04:22, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Lexi.acosta Sources use both names so you'll have to start a requested move discussion. You can do this by clicking "discuss" next to the page link above. C F A 💬 16:19, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- Tromsø → Tromsø Municipality (currently a redirect back to Tromsø) (move · discuss) – use standardized naming for municipalities in Norway - disambiguate from other places with the same name Jay1279 (talk) 18:15, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Jay1279 If the municipality is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, then adding "Municipality" is unnecessary disambiguation. If you're arguing that the city should be the primary topic instead of the municipality, that would require a formal move discussion (click the "discuss" link in your request above). --Ahecht (TALK
