Osaka City Dome → Kyocera Dome Osaka – Restore proper name. No evidence given that the name was changed, and the team and stadium websites both use the previous article title. Also, the current title seems as though the mover couldn't move to the title they wanted so they made one up, as I can find no source for the current title. oknazevad (talk) 23:47, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Queried move request. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 04:17, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
 * So in doing further research for this, including using Google translate on the edit summary for the move (which was in Japanese and therefore as good as absent on the English Wikipedia) it seems that the current title is the name of the subsidiary of Orix that actually owns and operates the dome, not the name of the dome itself. The dome is consistently referred to by the previous article title throughout the Buffaloes' website and the NPB website. In short, there's absolutely no reason for the move to have been made. oknazevad (talk) 06:29, 2 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Support move to Osaka Dome (the title until 2014, and still a name in common use), Kyocera Dome (the stable title from 2014–2017, and the most common title on Google), or Kyocera Dome Osaka as in the proposal. The topic of the article is the dome itself, which is never known as "Osaka City Dome," not the "Osaka City Dome Company" that owns this and other stadiums. Dekimasu よ! 15:21, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
