The result of the move request was: Procedurally closing. Combined RM on G8 → G7 pages at Talk:G8+5. (non-admin closure) — Andy W.  ( talk  · ctb) 23:53, 26 September 2016 (UTC)

G8 Research Group → G7 Research Group – The title of this article is obsolete since 2014, because after the expulsion of Russia from the G8, the group has again become the G7, and therefore the article should be renamed as the G7 Research Group. Much more importantly, this group is using the name "G7 Information Centre" in its website, even though its website retains the address http://www.g8.utoronto.ca/. (The "G8 Research Group" should be put as a history section of the renamed (and enlarged) article.) The expulsion of Russia looks more or less permanent (since neither side will budge on the issue of the annexation of Crimea, the reason for its expulsion), so the request can be made.
