Requested split 2009

 * The following discussion is closed. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.

I propose splitting the IAC/InterActiveCorp into two articles, IAC/InterActiveCorp and List of business operations of IAC/InterActiveCorp. You can help working on the second article at User:Evosoho/Sandbox/IAC/List and the first article at User:Evosoho/Sandbox/IAC. --3^0$0%0 16:42, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

The result of the move request was Procedural close — the movereq procedure is not a substitute or shortcut around the deletion procedure.)) — V = I * R  (talk) 23:16, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

I think IAC/InterActiveCorp should be moved to User:Evosoho/IAC/old  for edit history purposes. An article for IAC/InterActiveCorp would be devoloped at User:Evosoho/IAC. Wikipedia editors would edit User:Evosoho/IAC not User:Evosoho/IAC/old which currently resides at IAC/InterActiveCorp. IAC/InterActiveCorp would redirect to User:Evosoho/IAC. The talk page would remain open for discussion and the talk page for User:Evosoho/IAC and would be moved to User talk:Evosoho/IAC. I object to IAC/InteractiveCorp's prod and instead take the path I have explained instead. --3^0$0%0 20:43, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
 * That's entirely unnecessary. If you intend to improve the article, feel free to do so at it's current location. You have 7 days before the PROD will expire, and you can edit it during those days. Please review WP:PROD. Feel free to contact me on my talk page if you have any further questions. Killiondude (talk) 21:03, 24 August 2009 (UTC)


 * PS.: when you request a move, the proper procedure is to use . it appears that you substituted the movereq template instead, which creates a mess. Thanks. — V = I * R  (talk) 23:16, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: No consensus, not moved DavidLeighEllis (talk) 03:42, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

IAC/InterActiveCorp → IAC (company) – Move history seems hazy going back to 2005, but it looks like this article started at IAC/InterActiveCorp, was moved to InterActiveCorp, then moved back to IAC/InterActiveCorp, then moved to IAC (company). Earlier in 2014 it was moved back to IAC/InterActiveCorp again with an edit summary "much better, when disambiguation is needed, to use the actual name of the comany". Per WP:PRECISION, "(company)" seems sufficient - there are no other companies that abbreviate to IAC, so there is no need to distinguish it further as "the company previously called InterActiveCorp".

 * Oppose – per WP:TITLEFORMAT: avoid ambiguous abbreviations. "IAC" is ambiguous, whereas "IAC/InterActiveCorp" is not. Though I suspect that this article should really be at InterActiveCorp, per WP:COMMONNAME. ENeville (talk) 17:09, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

Sacco incident/OK cupid gay marriage stance
Some addition to the Sacco incident section regarding the OK Cupid stand on Gay mmarriage and the ousting of Eich from the Mozila organisation seems appropriate. As I see it they are preaching as they practice. Adagio67 (talk) 12:41, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
