 * The official name of the radio station. [[Image:Symbol move vote.svg|16px|link=|alt=]] Relisted Armbrust The Homunculus 08:51, 8 October 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.216.56.7  (talk • contribs) 18:23, 30 September 2013
 * Is the proposed target really the common English name? Vegaswikian (talk) 18:26, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Weak support - I looked briefly at this in Google Books before it was relisted and it seemed about 50/50 in tourist vs govt sources, but actually looking again at the Brandt Guide entry on radio stations, given that this is not one of stations using English and deliberately avoiding Italian spelling "radio" in the English website per http://www.ba-malta.org/stations, there's a case for using the official name as less misleading - for which see WP:CRITERIA - since it immediately says "hey this is one of the stations that isn't in English."

 * Oppose - This is the English Language wikipedia. According to Wikipedia policy, the English name or English translation should be used as it is the most frequently used and recognised name.
