Battleground: Bulge-Ardennes → Battleground: Ardennes – The original title of this game is Battleground: Ardennes. There was later a special edition re-release called Battleground: Bulge (Ardennes Deluxe), but Battleground: Ardennes remains the game's actual title. The current title of this article is a weird mash-up of the original title and the deluxe edition title that doesn't generally appear in reliable sources, and as such is inappropriate for Wikipedia. The "Bulge-Ardenes" subtitle doesn't even appear on the box cover we're literally using in the article right now. JimmyBlackwing (talk) 21:17, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

• Support. This is the name used in the one external link despite that link being piped to conceal this. I looked at a few references too and frankly the article needs a lot of work! But this is a good start. Andrewa (talk) 21:46, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

I include the above as the proposed move will overwrite it and I think it's a good record of the many previous moves. Andrewa (talk) 21:46, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

Andrewa, FYI, a page with more than 1 edit cannot be automatically deleted, see WP:MOR. Instead pageswap is used. (t · c) buidhe 05:25, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

buidhe, I think we need to discuss your closing comment. That may not be an appropriate use of pageswap. Andrewa (talk) 11:37, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

Andrewa, Why not? Pageswap is usually used for implementing requested moves, where the regular move cannot be implemented for technical reasons. (t · c) buidhe 11:39, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

Where is that documented? It's not mentioned at User:Andy M. Wang/pageswap that I can see. Taken to your talk page at User talk:Buidhe/Archive 12#Pageswap. Andrewa (talk) 12:30, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
