The result of the move request was: Not moved per WP:COMMONNAME. Fuortu (talk) 21:36, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

Go Whippet → Whippet Coaches – Whippet has now stopped using the name "Go Whippet", and uses "Whippet" or "Whippet Coaches" on all its latest products and mentions on official websites, including its own ( http://www.go-whippet.co.uk/ ). The company's twitter feed, although retaining the old 'gowhippet' username, for its full name uses 'Whippet Coaches' ( https://twitter.com/GoWhippet )- so I propose this page is renamed back to the original and the redirect is removed.

 * Oppose. And removing the redirect is a particularly bad idea and completely contrary to practice and policy. But the changes in official name have no direct relevance in terms of article title policy, and the story of this particular naming yo-yo is an excellent example of one reason why we have this policy. Let the dust settle and when it does, see what the common name ends up being. And keep the redirect, either way. Andrewa (talk) 16:43, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
