Old Warner Brothers Studio → Sunset Bronson Studios – This is the current name of the studio. It is also likely the common name, based on Google search results (~15k hits for Sunset Bronson Studios vs. ~6k for Old Warner Brothers Studio). ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 18:52, 24 June 2017 (UTC)--Relisting.

• Comment - haven't made up my mind yet. BU Rob13's points have significant merit, and if this were simply a normal company, I would definitely !vote support. However, the notability of this facility is mostly born out of its history. The national historic designation is for the old studio. I think a better way to go is to create a new article for the current studio, if it meets company notability guidelines (probably does, but I haven't researched it), splitting out the very brief mention of the new studio, and leave this one as an article about the NRHS site.

• Oppose. This article is focussed on the site as a Warner Brothers studio, and should remain so. Probably there is a case for splitting out the paragraph on Sunset Bronson, but I note that as it stands the section is poorly referenced and if split out would probably be speedy-deletable as having not established notability.

• Oppose - Upon further reflection, this article should remain, since it is about the NRHS site. As per Andrewa, if an article can be sourced to show that Sunset Bronson Studios passes GNG, then a different article, with a paragraph on the studio's history, could be written. This isn't an instance when an existing operation simply changed its name. Other than using the same facilities, Sunset Bronson is not a continuation of the former Warner Brothers, just like KTLA and Tribune weren't. As the usage of the site changes, those changes can be added to the article, which this current version appropriately does. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 12:26, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

Old Warner Brothers Studio → Sunset Bronson Studios – The previous move request was based on more sound logic, as it's the current and more common name these days. The previous rebuttal that the article is about the historic facility is plainly put, faulty. Firstly, because the article is about the entire history of the place, not just the historic era, even if the NRHP box appears on it. Infoboxes follow body text, not the other way around. Secondly, because even if the article did cover the older period more, that's an argument for expanding the coverage of more recent use and ownership, not ignoring it (just to be clear, I think the article as it is doesn't ignore the more recent eras, just rebutting the idea that it didn't). Thirdly, because the NRHP name is not defining, and in many cases is often made up by the NRHP as a description, not an actual proper name. Finally, because Wikipedia articles are about concepts like persons, places, or things, not names, and in this case the place is a single studio facility, not a historic name. oknazevad (talk) 15:43, 22 July 2021 (UTC) — Relisting. No such user (talk) 10:51, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

• Oppose. Nothing has changed since the RM of 14 July 2017. If you think that the company currently occupying the site passes GNG, then split out an article on it as was suggested by several people last time. But the site definitely qualifies for an article, and this is it. Andrewa (talk) 10:56, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
  • An utter non sequitur that doesn't address the proposal at all. No one is talking about the company that currently owns and operates the complex (it is notable and already has an article, Hudson Pacific Properties). And no one is saying that this complex doesn't deserve an article. Both of those are false statements. No one is arguing for a change in the scope of the article or content of the article. You seem confused by that point. It's a an article about a specific building complex, and that's all it's supposed to be. The point is that the current common name of the complex is not title of the article. Please address that point and only that point. oknazevad (talk) 12:29, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
• Oppose, as the present name, as affirmed in the 2017 RM, is connected to the historical importance of the building and remains an adequate and significant descriptor. Randy Kryn (talk) 12:08, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
