  • No evidence provided, nor any rationale for changing "Oromia Zone" to "Ethiopia". —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 23:43, 26 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

@BarrelProof: The CSA (an Ethiopian government agency) spells it Bati and not Baati. Looking at the page history User:Rastakwere (a now blocked account) changed the name to Baati with an edit summary of "name Baati in local Oromo language". The article used to be named Bati, Ethiopia but Rastakwere instead copyied and pasted the content of the article from Bati, Ethiopia to Baati, Oromia Zone without ever using the move page function (that's why you can't see the page history below August) Ue3lman (talk) 19:01, 29 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
It sounds like a histmerge will be needed rather than a page move, or in addition to it. I have tagged this article for a histmerge. Since this is a request to revert an undiscussed move, it should probably be "speedy" granted as a procedural matter. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 19:05, 29 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
The histmerge has been completed. Support speedy move as a revert of an undiscussed move by a since-blocked account (and don't forget the Talk page archive). —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 02:51, 1 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
