Requested move 7 March 2023 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 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: not moved. Premature. Driven by COI. Let's wait for secondary sources reflecting the new name. (closed by non-admin page mover) – robertsky (talk) 15:50, 21 March 2023 (UTC)Reply


North Star DubaiExpand North Star – We have changed the name of the brand from North Star Dubai to Expand North Star, and we have a show coming up in the near future so we need to make sure users are clear where to go. Website with new name and branding can be found here:https://www.expandnorthstar.com/ Oscar Gitex (talk) 09:37, 7 March 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. ❯❯❯ Raydann(Talk) 08:59, 14 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Article titles are based on what the subject is primarily known as or referred to. Until there is significant reporting in secondary sources of the new name, it should stay as-is. I will close this request soon if there is no further discussion; your argumentation is clearly very strongly influenced by your COI ("we have a show coming up in the near future").

  • Comment. The article was created by a sockpuppet in violation of a block (see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Mathieu Vouillamoz/Archive), but was no longer eligible for speedy deletion after it was subsequently expanded by User:AndyView, whose contributions relate to primarily to editing this article and GITEX. I note the similarity to the username of the editor who opened this request. This appears to indicate that there is a significant conflict of interest regarding the current contents of the article in either event, and so at least one tag should remain as far as I can tell, although it could be switched to the COI template. While there are a variety of sources in the article, it should be determined whether they are all press releases or other non-substantial coverage, in which case this could be sent to AfD. WP:TNT could be used here if the subject is notable, but I am not seeing a lot of hits for any of the current or past titles. Dekimasuよ! 06:43, 16 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
