[edit] Requested move

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the debate was PAGE MOVED per discussion below. -GTBacchus(talk) 04:46, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Amer Delić → Amer Delic — American tennis player improperly moved to misspelled name, redirect with history prevents move. This players own fansite cited in article is "Welcome to Amer Delic Online" and it uses the Delic spelling throughout. All other sources mentioned in the article use the "Delic" spelling, as do sources in other articles which link to this one. Gene Nygaard 13:12, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Survey - in support of the move

  1. Support as nominator. Gene Nygaard 13:13, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
  2. Support—subject uses this spelling himself. Cool Hand Luke 05:59, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Survey - in opposition to the move

  1. Oppose Correct name: Amer Delić.--Húsönd 01:29, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
    Certainly you must have a better argument than this? All the media uses this name, as does the subject himself. It seems he's adopted the American transliteration. Beyond that, we don't care about his Platonically "correct name", the naming conventions demand the most recognizable name in English language sources. There's no contest on this point. Compare Arpad Elo. Cool Hand Luke 08:35, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
