- Oil Insurance Limited → Everen Limited (move · discuss) – Company renamed SKS31 (talk) 17:58, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
- SKS31 Is there any evidence in independant sources that this is the new WP:COMMONNAME? A company rebranding itself isn't sufficient reason to move an article. -Kj cheetham (talk) 19:02, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Kj cheetham: Yep, sure enough, this is a WP:COMMONNAME claim in spirit, which is inherently controversial. I'll be moving this to full discussion soon so the discussion about this doesn't evolve here instead of the appropriate talk page. Steel1943 (talk) 19:06, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

- Then why does Boomerang (British and Irish TV channel) have Ireland included in its title? 100.7.44.80 (talk) 15:57, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
- Not saying it's right or not, but looking at Template:Children's television & radio in UK & Ireland there are a few like that. -Kj cheetham (talk) 19:54, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
