 * Keep. A misleading title is a reason to move, not to delete. Major official award, and sources clearly exist - I just added one in the course of clarifying the misleading aspect, which is that there are now two awards and there has been some musical chairs with the names. I suspect the title is the clearest possible for English-speaking readers (although redirects from the official German name and the temporary name of what is now officially are desirable) and that the article had best continue to be about the official award but briefly explain about the new second one, as it does now.

 * Speedy keep and discuss the title on the article talk page. No argument for deletion has been advanced. Phil Bridger (talk) 17:41, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Speedy Keep - 'Misleading title', the nom's reason for listing this article here, is no rationale for deleting this article about one of the top awards in the Federal Republic of Germany. The nom has evidently created a misleading AfD page. A discussion on the talk page of the article would have sufficed to effect a speedy name change if he was unsure about moving/renaming it himself. The German Wiki article on the award says it all:http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Designpreis_der_Bundesrepublik_Deutschland - --Zananiri (talk) 20:03, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
