Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: no consensus. There are some tentative suggestions that some other name might be better, but there's insufficient agreement right now. No prejudice against another RM if a better title is proposed. (non-admin closure) Extraordinary Writ (talk) 21:58, 29 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose a move to that title in particular. It does look like the article title should be updated to reflect the 2019 restructuring; but I don't think a long untranslated form is appropriate, and WP:UE seems to agree that even a novel translation would be preferable. I can't quite pick apart Türkmendenizderýaýollary well enough to suggest an appropriate English alternative, though. (Something like Türkmen "Turkmen" + deniz "sea" + derýa "river" + ýol "way" + -‍lar PL + -‍y 3SG.POSS?)
Regardless, we should probably ensure that this article, Turkmen Seaways, and Türkmenderýaýollary (Turkmen Riverways) are all consistently named. Possibly by merging the latter two articles into this one. —Twice Nothing (talk) 02:34, 5 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
