Requested move[edit]

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: no consensus for move. Favonian (talk) 21:25, 13 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Victor Ioniță → Victor Ionita — per the article's own English sources at ATP, ITF, Davis Cup and other official tennis websites, this should be moved to the common English alphabet sourced name of Victor Ionita. Fyunck(click) (talk) 22:08, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Survey[edit]

Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with *'''Support''' or *'''Oppose''', then sign your comment with ~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's policy on article titles.

Support - per the reasons given in the move request. Fyunck(click) (talk) 22:09, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Preserve encyclopaedic accuracy. Wikipedia does not encourage nor discourage diacritics. The subject is Romanian, and there is no indication that she is naturalised in an English-speaking country. Conventionally, all articles about Romanian male tennis players who have diacritics in their names are located in a namespace with diacritics, so it ought not to be moved. --Ohconfucius ^¡digame! 03:06, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - Per encyclopedia. A person name should be used as it is! (Gabinho^>:) 05:17, 7 September 2011 (UTC))[reply]
Oppose. Current article title renders his name correctly. - Darwinek (talk) 16:22, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose misspelling per our standard practice, the house styles of other encyclopedias and the recommendations (or requirements) of English style guides. Prolog (talk) 20:56, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support per WP:COMMONNAME and Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English). – ukexpat (talk) 21:58, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Diacritics are now used on all tennis draws in wikipedia and there's no reason to remove them. PL Alvarez (talk) 09:30, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Prior spelling errors are no reason for continuance. Fyunck(click) (talk) 17:21, 8 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
a diacritic is not a spelling error in this case; lack of one would be, though. ;-) --Ohconfucius ^¡digame! 09:33, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It is a spelling error in English if using the same parameters as others around here. Fyunck(click) (talk) 09:51, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support. No diacritic, says both the Associated Press and Toronto Star. Kauffner (talk) 14:10, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
