Requested move 21 June 2021

Latest comment: 2 years ago9 comments4 people in discussion

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 section.

It was proposed in this section that Indecomposable be renamed and moved to Indecomposability (disambiguation).

result:
Moved to Indecomposability. See a rough consensus below to rename this dab page to the noun. Kudos to all editors for your input, and Happy, Healthy Publishing! (nac by page mover) P.I. Ellsworth ed. ^put'r there 23:08, 17 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Indecomposable → Indecomposability (disambiguation) – I suggest the same approach is done as with irreducible: redirecting the adjective to the noun (indecomposability), and moving the dab page to the noun with a parenthesised qualifier. ~~~~

Oppose. The rule that article titles must be nouns does not apply to dab pages that are here only for an easier navigation. As "indecomposability" is rarely used, and the most common research term is "indecomposable", the present situation does not requires any change. D.Lazard (talk) 09:30, 22 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
Comment. To move this page to a title with "disambiguation" in parentheses, there is the need for a primary topic. Since no primary topic has been suggested, then opposition to this request appears to be justified on that level as well. P.I. Ellsworth ed. ^put'r there 03:45, 30 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
- To editor 1234qwer1234qwer4: do you have a primary topic in mind? If so, then please let us know. Otherwise, this request should be withdrawn or procedurally closed. P.I. Ellsworth ed. ^put'r there 06:20, 2 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
  @Paine Ellsworth I'll have to take another look, since you obfuscated the page histories quite a bit by apparently pageswapping redirects. ~~~~

  A necessary evil I guess, since another editor, who apparently didn't know about this open request, moved pages around and turned your current title above into a redirect. I had to "fix" things so I could relist and work with you to attempt to figure out the best possible solution. Sorry about the inconvenience. P.I.

  Sorry, I didn't see the other editor. Looking at my nomination, it appears that when I opened the nomination, "Indecomposability" was the title of the article currently named Indecomposability (constructive mathematics). @User:Michael Hardy, who moved the page: Do you have any comments for this discussion? With the current naming, I would still be in favour of moving the disambiguation to the noun. ~~~~

Comment. This should be moved to indecomposability, which should be a disambiguation page. It is nonsense to say that the sense in constructive mathematics is the main meaning. Michael Hardy (talk) 23:38, 3 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
