Talk:Hurricane Virgil (1992)

Requested move 24 November 2016

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the move request was: no consensus. It is clear there needs to be a broader discussion on how to effectively name and disambiguate hurricane articles, and this article needs to be part of that discussion. Right now, there is no consensus to move this page. (non-admin closure) Brad  v  21:44, 31 December 2016 (UTC)

Hurricane Virgil (1992) → Hurricane Virgil – Only one Pacific hurricane named Virgil. 219.79.96.41 (talk) 11:29, 24 November 2016 (UTC) --Relisting. Andrewa (talk) 19:49, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Oppose. This should not have been listed separately. See ongoing relevant discussion at Talk:Hurricane Stan (disambiguation). &mdash;Gordon P. Hemsley&rarr; &#x2709; 06:24, 26 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Relisting comment: I agree with User:GPHemsley that this shouldn't have been raised as a separate RM while the other was in progress, but now that it has been, let us wait at least one relisting and see whether anything happens at the other discussion. Andrewa (talk) 19:48, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Oppose: so not as to confuse with any other names listed at Tropical Storm Virgil. Ebonelm (talk) 21:21, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Support. It's the only *Hurricane" with that name, and a hatnote can take us to the dab page in case anyone is confused. Unlike "Tropical Storm Tina" (which includes Hurricane Tina), this is not an ambiguous term. &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 23:26, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Someone people call any strong tropical storm a hurricane. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:27, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Support. While discussion at Talk:Hurricane Stan and elsewhere is continuing, nothing that has developed there affects this RM. This is the clear primary topic; Only two storms have been called Virgil, and while this one is not all that famous, the other is barely notable. Andrewa (talk) 10:33, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

Hurricane Virgil (1992) → Hurricane Virgil – Only one Pacific hurricane named Virgil. 219.79.250.146 (talk) 01:35, 8 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose since there was a typhoon named Virgil in 1999, and that could cause confusion. YE Pacific Hurricane  16:44, 9 February 2017 (UTC)
