[edit] Requested move

The reasons for move copied from the entry on the WP:RM page:

Thanks for the article; however,
  1. I'd like to turn everyone's attention to WP:NC#Lowercase second and subsequent words; IOW, the article titles should be all-lowercased except when uppercase is clearly indicated.
  2. This is far better known as "weak two bid" or simply "weak two". It doesn't quite fit into the definition of convention (bridge), too -- this is a pretty natural treatment.
  3. Link to weak two bid (now a redirect) is already in several articles.

Thus, I suggest moving this article to "Weak two bid". Duja 12:09, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Support as the proposer. Duja 12:09, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Either. As the creator of this article, either is fine with me. (Although IMHO, I'd say it is a convention. But it's also a bid, so that's neither here nor there.) – Quadell (talk) (bounties) 17:30, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion

Add any additional comments
  • I've seen it capitalized as both "Weak Two" and "Weak two" in books on the subject, as well as "Weak-two", "weak-2", etc. I've made lots of redirects. – Quadell (talk) (bounties) 17:30, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
    • Me too, but we should establish a consistent capitalization accross the wiki (and "bridge-wiki"). Since there is already WP:NC, I think we should follow it – there's no particular reason why "Two" should be uppercased. While most titles in English grammar are uppercased indeed, that approach is not practical on wikipedia for navigation and other issues. Duja 08:37, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

This is confusing. There seems to be a new move request as of May 20, 2006, well after this poll closed. Errabee 00:19, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

  • Oppose. The Two club bid article, while very badly named, is about a very strong opening bid, in fact the strongest possible opening bid. Errabee 00:19, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
