Flight number was 890; rename the article? edit

Hello fellow Wikipedians. I was looking for the flight number for 1958 Central African Airways plane crash , and I found it here. The Evening Times newspaper article from 9 August 1958 states it was "CE 890". I believe renaming the article to Central African AIrways Flight 890 might be in order, but I don't know the protocol for doing so. (Update: See below, and please record your support or opposition. Thank you.) Itsfullofstars (talk) 14:44, 4 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

1958 Central African Airways plane crashCentral African Airways Flight 890 – After researching the wiki help documentation for the proper procedures to request an article move, I think I'm doing it correctly, so here goes... An article dated 8 August 9 August 1958 from The Evening Times newspaper states twice that the flight number was 890, including a quoted statement directly attributed to a Central African Airways spokesman. I'm hopeful this won't be a controversial move. I will leave an update for the appropriate ASN page should the move be approved. Itsfullofstars (talk) 18:04, 4 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Update: I decided to send the above newspaper link to ASN to see if would pass muster, and they added the flight number on their incident page. Itsfullofstars (talk) 18:43, 6 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
