The result of the move request was: Moved to Flying lizard (disambiguation). EdJohnston (talk) 03:07, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

Flying lizard → Flying Lizard – All uncapitalized meanings of the term on this page are merely variations of lizards that are able to fly (or, technically, glide); the only truly ambiguous meanings are capitalized. Move this page to the capitalized tile and redirect the uncapitalized form to Draco (genus), which encompasses all actual flying lizards. bd2412 T 01:56, 20 March 2017 (UTC)
 * There are fossil extinct gliding lizards that are not in genus Draco. And, is case of letters enough distinction? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:06, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
 * If letter case is not enough, then I would argue that the modern genus is the clear primary topic against extinct kinds, and certainly against the comparatively obscure rock band (which also uses a definite article and plural form) and racing team (which is a partial title match), in which case, I would move this page to Flying lizard (disambiguation). bd2412  T 10:56, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
 * As Disambiguation pages do not have to be moved.--Tr56tr (talk) 03:51, 22 March 2017 (UTC)


 * Support. An excellent example of one of the many uses of capitalisation to clarify the topic of a page (perhaps we should say scope as it's a DAB). Andrewa (talk) 07:06, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Support move to Flying lizard (disambiguation) and redirect uncapitalized Flying lizard to Draco (genus). That would appear to be the primary topic. But the dab page should be decapitalized, since most of the topics on it (the lizard species) use lower case.--Cúchullain t/ c 16:20, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Support this alternative (change of !vote). On reflection is quite right, the style of the DAB title should follow that of the articles listed, and the genus is the PT. Andrewa (talk) 20:43, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
 * I am fine with that option also. My primary point is the primary topic. bd2412  T 22:29, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
