Requested move 29 August 2022 edit

BDI BridgeElm Park Bridge – It looks like the official name is "Elm Park Bridge" while the alternate name is "BDI Bridge" - it even says as much in the introduction of the article. I'm wondering if the official name should be used as the article title (Elm Park Bridge) with a redirect from the unofficial name, as opposed to the other way around?

  • Support, per reasons given by nominator. Google Maps also has it labelled "Elm Park Bridge", for what it's worth. PKT(alk) 12:09, 15 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose per the criteria - while not official, the current name is more recognizable, natural, and precise (as there are things called "Elm Park Bridge" that are not this). Nikkimaria (talk) 02:26, 16 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
