The result of the move request was: moved to Ondřej Martinka. Favonian (talk) 11:57, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
Ondrej Martinka → Ondřej Martinka – In ictu oculi moved this page, it was reverted under "moved without discussion..." and put up for a contested requested move by PBS (talk) 08:18, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
From the history of the article:
- 02:53, 1 May 2012 In ictu oculi m . . (In ictu oculi moved page Ondrej Martinka to Ondřej Martinka: spelled Ondřej)
- Oppose, as this is the English language Wikipedia & so the name should be in english. GoodDay (talk) 19:07, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
- Support per accuracy. There can be a redirect in place for those who don't know diacritics. -DJSasso (talk) 19:15, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
- Support (same rationale as for today's other "Ondřej" RMs: Diacritics provide important pronunciation information for those familiar with a language and do not hinder reading or understanding for those who choose to ignore them. Although some English sources have omitted diacritics due to typographical or display constraints, scholarly and encyclopedic sources (which is what Wikipedia aspires to be) are far more likely to include them. Modern computers universally support display of European-language diacritics, eg, at least the ones in WGL-4 or similar subsets. Wikipedia should render names with diacritics accurately. -- P.T. Aufrette (talk) 00:24, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
- Support per P.T. Aufrette --Ohconfucius ¡digame! 04:21, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
- Support for the sake of accuracy, and keep the non-diacriticized name as redirect. - Darwinek (talk) 05:20, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
- Support move to more accurate name. bobrayner (talk) 14:56, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
- Comment What does more accurate name mean and is that a name returned in a survey of reliable English language sources? -- PBS (talk) 15:41, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
- Removing diacritics doesn't make a name english, it makes it misspelt. PBS, which bit of "more accurate name" is causing you problems? It's three unambiguous words.
- (I do wish we didn't have to copy and paste the same comments on multiple pages). bobrayner (talk) 23:15, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
- Support Support (see Talk:Ondřej Látal), (ditto, the above duplicate comment doesn't require quadruple answers...). In ictu oculi (talk) 23:59, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
