edit- HM Prison Forest Bank → Forest Bank Prison (currently a redirect back to HM Prison Forest Bank) (move · discuss) – New guidance from HMPPS (UK Gov) on naming of Prisons and Young Offender Institutions across England and Wales. No longer appropriate to use HM Prison, HMP, HMYOI or HM YOI. Name itself only followed by Prison and/pr Young Offender Institution. Official-Sensitive (talk) 16:06, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Official-Sensitive Not necessarily uncontroversial. The majority of sources refer to it as "HMP Prison Forest Bank." See WP:COMMONNAME. I suggest starting a RM discussion. You can do this by clicking "discuss" next to the page link above. C F A 💬 16:19, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Official-Sensitive: Do you have a link to this guidance? Graham (talk) 04:54, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- Kutub al-Sittah → The Six Books (currently a redirect back to Kutub al-Sittah) (move · discuss) – Moving the Arabic transliterated name to the English name. This is warranted as the equivalent page for the canon of Shia hadith collections is called The Four Books instead of its Arabic equivalent Kutub al-ʾArbaʿa. In addition, google searches for "The Six Books" are over 10x as common (and rising) as searches for "Kutub al-Sittah" (either way this wikipedia page is the top result). https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=Kutub+al-Sittah%2CThe+Six+Books&year_start=1800&year_end=2019&corpus=en-2019&smoothing=3 Pogenplain (talk) 04:56, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Pogenplain There were two attempts to move this in 2013 at Talk:Kutub_al-Sittah. While it's very likely that usage or opinions could've changed in the last 11 years, it would require a new discussion. Please click the "discuss" link in your request above to open a full move request. --Ahecht (TALK
