Blind soccer → Blind football – Blind football is simply a redirect page to Blind soccer, and the former is a more common name for this Paralympic sport than the latter.&#32;TLSOSLT (talk) 18:00, 25 March 2023 (UTC) This was a contested technical request (permalink).

 * This sounds like a WP:ENGVAR matter. We don't base that kind of decision on which variation is more common. Note, per an article talk page comment, that there is also a Paralympic association football article. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 20:18, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I considered this an uncontroversial move because, again, Blind football's only purpose is to redirect to Blind soccer. The move would basically just switch it around. Previously, Blind football redirected to Paralympic association football, but I changed its target after realizing that CP football had a decent separate article, while the blind soccer one wasn't as informative. So I wanted to try to bring more attention to it, and thought that a title change would help. TLSOSLT (talk) 05:13, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Swapping an article with it's redirect doesn't inherently make it uncontroversial. Wanting to bring attention to something isn't a valid reason for a page move either. Whilst I don't object to this move at all, it probably needs a full WP:RM. -Kj cheetham (talk) 14:35, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I won't bother, then.
