Requested move 23 May 2015
edit- 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. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: not moved. No prejudice against a new RM about moving the article to simply Squantum. Jenks24 (talk) 20:45, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
Squantum (Quincy, Massachusetts) → Squantum, Massachusetts – It restricted me from moving the page, so I would appreciate it, if someone would make the move for me. The Squantum, Massachusetts page would make a more realistic title for the page. The current page has extra unnecessary length. –Aidan721 (talk) 12:45, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
- Strong procedural close a request of this nature is already open and being discussed. (see Talk:Quincy,_Massachusetts#Requested_move_27_April_2015) This is a duplicate request. There is no reason why we should be discussing this again while an older move request concerning this page is still open. Indeed, you are the one that requested it. This should be closed as a violation of process by trying to endrun around an existing discussion. -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 04:11, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
- NOTE There is a message [1] at the nominator's talk page user talk:Aidan721 about the user ignoring process and moving pages about while the discussion is open -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 04:16, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
- Support move to Squantum. There's nothing else called just "Squantum", and the title already redirects here, and has for six years. Oppose moving to Squantum, Massachusetts, per strong consensus at Talk:Quincy,_Massachusetts#Requested_move_27_April_2015.--Cúchullain t/c 16:58, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
- Squantum should be a disambiguation page, there being a navy base, peninsula, neighborhood -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 04:58, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
- The others are all only partial title matches, they're not called just "Squantum".--Cúchullain t/c 12:55, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
Oppose and close: I'm with 65.94.43.89; Aidan721 isn't demonstrating good faith by first ignoring the overwhelming consensus in the discussion he requested, and now by forum shopping. The nature of a consensus-based system is that sometimes you're on the wrong side of it, in which case it's incumbent on you to lose gracefully and move on. This is advice I would recommend to Aidan.

Thompson Island
editSquantum is additionally connected by a low land-bridge during low tide to Thompson_Island_(Massachusetts) Should we mention it ? or is it not worth noting here. Tkukler (talk) 19:20, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
