  • Oppose. There already has been a consensus that Hawaiian monarchs will be under simple and short headings such as Liliuokalani, Lunalilo and Kamehameha I. See further Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Hawaii/Manual of Style. I find the above request for move an improper one, as "of Hawaii" is unnecessary clutter and is not needed to anything, least of all to any useful disambiguation. Arrigo 09:09, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose Pointless, and will require needless piping. Septentrionalis 21:54, 28 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] moving

although "King" would reflect the gender of the person, because the current heading will simply just not do Antares911 23:46, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • Oppose. I favor simplicity. There was no other Lunalilo, afaik. (As this was not an European monarch, those guidelines are not applied.) There is no necessity for the heading to show genders, etc. The article tells such things. 217.140.193.123 4 July 2005 06:24 (UTC)

It was requested that Lunalilo be moved to either King Lunalilo of Hawaii or Lunalilo of Hawaii. I among others oppose such moves. As can be seen above, the request received opposition and the poll went stale. Requests denied. Arrigo 13:07, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

Arrigo please stop moving pages if the naming is controversial, in any case. Also do not remove renaming tags if the voting has not been clear and over. Please abide by Wikipedia rules and Wikiquette. Gryffindor 14:30, August 26, 2005 (UTC)
Instead of having to place opinions on multiple pages, we should follow the example of the users over at the Japan manual of style pages and move all related discussions to one place. Thus, I'm requesting that we move all discussions about the naming conventions of Hawaiian monarchs to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Hawaii/Manual of Style.
While I'm discussing this, why is it that only two Hawaiian article pages are being proposed for movement? We need a set format for naming related articles. We won't get that when we have an article named Kamehameha V and another article named Lunalilo of Hawaii. 青い(Aoi) 06:25, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

It was requested that this article be renamed but there was no consensus for it be moved. Dragons flight 02:49, September 1, 2005 (UTC)
