Talk:Wolverhampton Civic Hall

Name

I think that this article should be renamed "Wolverhampton Civic Halls" and it should cover all three venues, since they are all part of the same complex. Civic Hall, Wunfrun Hall and Little Civic should then redirect to this article.

After the recent refurbishment the venue has established a new identity and is now known as The Halls Wolverhampton as of 2023. Comprising of both The Civic Hall and Wulfrun Hall and feel the page should be updated to reflect this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.103.105.243 (talk) 16:11, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

Said performance was in 2000, not in 2001 just incase anyone should wonder why I changed it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.16.61.79 (talk) 16:49, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Wolverhampton Civic Hall → The Halls, Wolverhampton – This is the official name of the complex (see website), and the Civic Hall, the current article subject, has always just been a part of the complex since its opening in 1938.

• Comment The Halls Wolverhampton (without the comma) might also be acceptable, although my preference is for the form with the comma per MOS:TM. Tevildo (talk) 22:52, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
• Support The Halls Wolverhampton as it seems from looking on Google that both official and third party sources normally use this so removing the comma per WP:NATURAL seems a good idea, see Talk:St Mary's School Ascot#Requested move 25 March 2019 and Talk:St Cross South Elmham#Requested move 17 May 2019.

• Oppose. It's always been called the Civic Hall and that's what it's called in its Historic England listing. It seems to have only just been renamed "The Halls Wolverhampton" this year. Just a marketing ploy. Not WP:COMMONNAME. Wolverhampton Civic Halls may be acceptable. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:00, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Based on WP:COMMONNAME arguments laid out by opposition, not seeing a clear enough consensus to close with. EggRoll97 ^(talk) 15:07, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

• On WP:COMMONNAME, it's important to note that the article is about the complex (that is, the Civic Hall itself, Wulfrun Hall, and the Slade Rooms), not just the Civic Hall. Most references in the field will refer to one of the halls, not the whole complex. If "The Halls" is unacceptable, Wolverhampton Civic Halls would be better than the current title.

Relisting comment: Final relist; currently no evidence provided in either direction - as things stand I would expect a "no consensus" result BilledMammal (talk) 11:11, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

• Oppose We should not be pandering to the latest rebranding exercise, the main purpose of which will be promotional. Dormskirk (talk) 17:23, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
