Tychy Municipal Stadium → Stadion Miejski (Tychy) – The move, which I myself was, nomen omen, the author of, took place in violation of the principle that we should use the commonly used name. At the time, it seemed like the best choice, but recent discussions, such as those in Stadion Miejski (Białystok) and Stadion Miejski (Gdynia), made me rethink it. That discussion wasn't particularly rich in arguments, so I simply propose "Stadion Miejski (Tychy)," as it appears in sources and does not spark controversy.

Oppose per WP:UE. OP cites no English-language sources which use the proposed name. 162 etc. (talk) 19:32, 9 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but OP also doesn’t cite any sources for the use of the current English name. As you can see from my activity, I’m not a stickler for this type of naming, but in Białystok and Gdynia, "Stadion Miejski" was adopted, and that’s what should be used there. Let’s stay consistent. Paradygmaty (talk) 10:07, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
WP:UE is policy, and it is clear. When no English-language sources exist, we translate the title. 162 etc. (talk) 16:29, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Mhmmm… if it were clear, then Stadion Miejski in Białystok, Gdańsk, Kielce, Nisko, Ząbki, or Szczecin would be named XYZ Municipal Stadium, not Stadion Miejski (XXX). I used to think like you, but let’s not make life harder for ourselves. Paradygmaty (talk) 18:47, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This discussion is about Tychy Municipal Stadium. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. 162 etc. (talk) 20:55, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, but next to this rule, there is also the rule of common sense. If we do not accept moving Stadion Miejski (Gdynia) or Stadion Miejski (Ząbki) to Gdynia Municipal Stadium or Ząbki Municipal Stadium, then, according to the rule of common sense, we should not stubbornly pretend that those discussions never took place and refuse to accept moving "Tychy Municipal Stadium" to "Stadion Miejski (Tychy)."

We can move Tychy Municipal Stadium → Stadion Miejski (Tychy) if you show evidence that the latter is used in English-language reliable sources - but so far, you have not. 162 etc. (talk) 16:14, 11 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@162 etc.: OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is encouraged in RMs. Consistency is one of our five criteria. Bringing up other articles helps advance the discussion and determine whether or not the title should be changed. 🐔 Chicdat ^{Bawk to me!} 17:31, 11 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Note that per WP:TITLECON, "Consistency is only one of several title considerations, and it generally falls below several other considerations in the hierarchy of title determination." Notably, it falls below WP:COMMONNAME, which asks us to use "the name that is most commonly used (as determined by its prevalence in a significant majority of independent, reliable, English-language sources.)" This nomination cites no such sources. 162 etc. (talk) 19:30, 11 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - no sources provided, and no idea why we would move away from the English-language name... Giant Snowman 18:51, 11 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
