Parliamentary Press Gallery (Canada) → Parliamentary Press Gallery – No disambiguation required. 142.161.83.66 (talk) 05:00, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:03, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- Many nations' parliaments and similar organizations have somewhere where newspaper reporters can watch the proceedings. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:05, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- Is there another article that you think might be able to qualify as a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC or that otherwise would require disambiguation from this one, Anthony Appleyard? 142.161.83.66 (talk) 05:07, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- Comment Some background: article was created in 2007 at Canadian Parliamentary Press Gallery, then quickly moved to Parliamentary Press Gallery without comment. In 2012, User:Willwal moved the page to its current title, Parliamentary Press Gallery (Canada) with edit summary "Also a Parliamentary Press Gallery in other countries, e.g. UK". Colin M (talk) 05:59, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- Move to Canadian Parliamentary Press Gallery (the article's original title from way back). I think there are legitimate precision concerns with "Parliamentary Press Gallery", even if there are no other existing Wikipedia articles that contend for that title - for example, a google search for
site:bbc.com "Parliamentary Press Gallery"turns up at least a handful of articles talking about press galleries in the UK or elsewhere. I think the original title beats the current title with parenthetical disambiguator on WP:NATURALNESS grounds. Colin M (talk) 06:07, 21 August 2019 (UTC) - Oppose and Move to Canadian Parliamentary Press Gallery (the article's original title from way back). In ictu oculi (talk) 20:52, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose and keep the existing title. Parenthetical modifiers are generally preferred to a preceding geographic qualifier in Library and Information Science circles. Doug Mehus (talk) 17:45, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose to avoid confusion with others such as one in the UK (https://pressgallery.org.uk/). It can be moved to Canadian Parliamentary Press Gallery as that is the full version of its name as used on its website. Peter James (talk) 18:02, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
