 * Symbol voting keep.svg Moved to mainspace on March 9, nominated on March 10/new enough. 15910 char/long enough. Neutral, cited, no apparent copyvios. No image with nomination. QPQ done. Main hook 200 char/at maximum. Alt 1 172 char/under max. Alt 2 193 char/under maximum. None of the sourcing is available in links and must be AGF. Main hook has a citation following each sentence in name controversy section. Alt1 has a citation immediately following. Alt 2 does not seem to be supported by the statement in the article, which simply states that a portion of the code of conduct was removed, which might indicate how someone would rule. That doesn't seem to be a position on an issue, but rather a legal determination. It may be that the change did refer to a position, but I don't see that in the article and since there is no access to the source, striking alt2. SusunW (talk) 15:23, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
