Requested move

Requested move 30 September 2015

True (Japanese singer) → Miho Karasawa – See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Anime and manga#True (Japanese singer) for background information. The subject of the article, singer-songwriter True, apparently is more commonly known under her real name, Miho Karasawa. She only began using the stage name True in 2014, prior to which she released songs and performed as Miho Karasawa (she, however, continues to write lyrics for herself and others as Karasawa rather than True). and while her Ameblo (or at least her current one) URL is under the name True, her Twitter profile uses Karasawa. Finally, her Japanese Wikipedia article is still at "唐沢美帆" (Karasawa Miho) rather than "TRUE (歌手)". As such, it appears that she is still more commonly known under her real name. (Note: Miho Karasawa was the original title of the article, back when I created it, but another editor moved it some time afterwards. I had originally considered creating it under the current title, but decided instead to create it at Karasawa because of the reasons I have explained above.)

Support. Singer has used Miho Karasawa from 2000-14, and True from 2014-present. The exception would be if she has changed her actual name instead of just her stage name. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:04, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

Support For the same reason Snoop Dogg is not at Snoop Lion.--十八 00:11, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

Support. She appears to be more widely known by her real name according to WP:RS. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 00:33, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

She is commonly known under her real name in Japan, but consider she has no wikipedia page until recently when you created it we can say internationally people start to know her only after she sings anime theme songs using the stage name TRUE. The problem is you can't find her wikipedia page unless you know her real name, but her real name is not commonly known internationally, so when you search True, True (singer) or True (Japanese singer) it doesn't direct you to Miho Karasawa, that is why i moved it to its current name, thinking about it from general POV.--Ashitamatta (talk) 06:02, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

@Ashitamatta: You might need to familiarize yourself with MOS:JAPAN then. There's nothing there which suggests that a person's article should be at the title which is more well-known internationally. Even if that were the case, your argument is hollow: as I mentioned earlier, Karasawa had been performing under that name for more than 14 years; she even did a number of anime themes as Karasawa and not true, so "people only knowing about her under the name True" is recentism.

Ok, i moved it back, i hope you can add more about her and also her contribution as Karasawa.--Ashitamatta (talk) 15:43, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
