Requested move

 * The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the move request was: page moved per request. As Fences and Windows notes below, the name change is clearly going through, and goes officially into effect in a month. No reason to deny the move. - GTBacchus(talk) 00:53, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

Hannibal–LaGrange College → Hannibal-LaGrange University — The name has been officially changed from Hannibal-LaGrange College to Hannibal-LaGrange University. Hlgwebmaster (talk) 00:48, 28 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Oppose for now – the name change was only announced on 27 October 2010, whilst your own edits suggest the name change won't really begin until January 2011; in fact the college website has a banner across the top which reads "Hannibal-LaGrange College". I would recommend closing this for now and making another request round about February 2011, to give the new name time to settle into regular usage. In the meantime I have created a redirect at your proposed name so if anybody does search for "Hannibal-LaGrange University", they will be taken straight to the article.

 * Support. "Hannibal-LaGrange College officially became Hannibal-LaGrange University after an appeal to retain the institution's historic name resonated with messengers to the Missouri Baptist Convention's annual meeting." I see no valid reason to delay the move, as the vote passed. Fences  &amp;  Windows  11:53, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
