Wrong title

This thing was called "Rote Ruhrarmee", not "Ruhr Rote Armee" (which makes absolutely no sense in German). The proper English translation therefore is "Red Ruhr Army" and certainly not "Ruhr Red Army." The opening sentence of the article has been correct in this regard since June 2004 -- fifteen years ago!. It is about time that the lemma is moved accordingly. I tried to do it, but a very alert rules arbiter reverted the move. --Cosal (talk) 21:15, 2 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
