Yawkey Way → Jersey Street (Boston) – Street name legally changed in 2018, all sources now refer to it as Jersey Street. Currently, 'Jersey Street (Boston)' is a redirect to Yawkey Way, it should be the other way around.&#32;Criticalus (talk) 15:12, 27 May 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. >>> Extorc . talk  08:10, 3 June 2022 (UTC)  — Relisting. >>>  Extorc . talk  05:35, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Official name change, but it may be the that the WP:COMMONNAME is Yawkey Way. Also, the article describes only a portion of Jersey Street, so moving the page could be misleading. In any case, this certainly warrants a normal RM discussion in my view. Mdewman6 (talk) 22:23, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
