[edit] Requested move

The result of the proposal was PAGE MOVED per discussion below. -GTBacchus(talk) 02:27, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

GNU Texinfo → Texinfo — "Texinfo" refers to the typesetting syntax, which this article is mainly about. "GNU Texinfo" refers to the programs provided by the GNU project that implement the syntax. Since the latter is less important and not discussed as much, this article should be named "Texinfo". ——msikma (user, talk) 11:52, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Survey

Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with *'''Support''' or *'''Oppose''', then sign your comment with ~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.
  • Support. As per nom. Also since Texinfo redirects to GNU Texinfo there shouldn't be a problem with this move. --203.220.171.83 (talk) 10:18, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
