Requested move 18 October 2020

Latest comment: 4 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Withdrawn. New information says this is not controversial, will request technical move at WP:Requested moves, only participants are me as the "neutral nominator" and the actual person who wants the page moved.

BritBowl → Britbowl – Recent/2020 usage of the term seems to be more "Britbowl" than "BritBowl." Another editor changed the article and attempted to use {{DISPLAYTITLE:Britbowl}} which does not work (see WP:DISPLAYTITLE). davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 15:29, 18 October 2020 (UTC) davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 15:29, 18 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi David - this is myself who has been trying to get the article up to date and correct.

The article was initially setup in 2006 when the Championship game was renamed - and at the time I think "BritBowl" was the more common format chosen to refer to it.

Over the last couple of years - the formatting "Britbowl" is now more commonly used - both by BAFA, BAFRA and a sizable amount of the Britball community. The very good resource site Britballnow.co.uk - dating to 2016 refers to it as "Britbowl" - http://www.britballnow.co.uk/history-index/britball-finals-pre-2014.html

I've seen a couple of uses of "BritBowl" - but they seem to be become rarer and rarer. I tried to find out how the page could be renamed to the correct title - but was unable to find anything apart from DISPLAYTITLE which obviously didn't work! BAFRA217 (talk) 13:06, 19 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

The page Britbowl has more than one edit, so only editors with "page mover" or "administrator" rights can move this page on top of that one. Since you provided a sound reason for moving the page and there is unanimous consent to move the page, I am going to close this discussion early and go to WP:Requested moves to request a "non-controversial" technical move. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 17:30, 19 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
