2003 Congo air disaster → 2003 Ukrainian Cargo Airways Il-76 incident – Fails WP:COMMONNAME.

While the title might seem commonly used, removing the year and just typing Congo air disaster brings us various accidents/incidents in Congo with wikipedia being the sole website mentioning the name "Congo air disaster".

Even though typing 2003 Congo air disaster shows us the correct results, it also shows us other Congo plane crashes. Additionally, as already stated, wikipedia is the only website that uses the name Congo air disaster. Per WP:AVTITLE, articles on air accidents without a flight number should follow the following format: .

  .

Just look at the Munich air disaster, type it in and one of the first websites you get talking about the event all have the title Munich air disaster. Type Congo air disaster and while you might get related searches, you still do get other events.

For event, I'm not sure if "incident" fits the bill though it does seem like the acceptable name. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 17:21, 17 February 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. JML1148 ( talk &#124; contribs ) 06:31, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Support move, More the airline than Congo incident and there are other Congo accidents and incidents. However, I thought it was an 'accident' rather than an 'incident' if there were fatalities. No? Ex nihil  (talk) 16:45, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
 * That's a mistake on my part. Just to make sure, I just checked the ICAO definition of accident and it does state serious or fatal injury of occupant(s).
 * So I agree with changing my proposed title to 2003 Ukrainian Cargo Airways Il-76 accident. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 11:36, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment as nominator. Typed again the article's title and I've found a wikipedia page about the 2003 Angola Boeing 727 disappearance.
 * I have found that less than 5 sources including the telegraph and the NZ herald use the name Congo air disaster but they are most likely reffering to it as an air disaster in Congo, not using it as a popular name. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 11:30, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
 * So, has a consensus been reached or do we wait until another user joins the discussions?
 * It has already been 18 days since I've nominated this page to request a possible move with only one user, Ex nihil responding.
 * The last comments were from the 19th, 20th and 25th of february, more than a week ago. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 11:21, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Thanks. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 08:17, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
