- Ti-sapphire laser → Titanium-sapphire laser (currently a redirect back to Ti-sapphire laser) (move · discuss) – per rm Discussion here : better alternative, avoids confusion >>> Extorc.talk 09:06, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Requests to revert undiscussed moves[edit]
Contested technical requests[edit]
- Fender amplifier → Fender amplifiers (currently a redirect back to Fender amplifier) (move · discuss) – Per the talk page, the article is about an entire product line, not just one amp. Mbinebri (talk) 12:51, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
- WP:NCPLURAL would suggest otherwise. Even if it is a whole class of amps, it can still be referred to in the singular, e.g. in his other hand is a Fender amplifier he's borrowed from somebody. So the default is singular, and the 2017 move seems correct. — Amakuru (talk) 18:24, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
- Sycamore Shoals State Historic Area → Sycamore Shoals State Historic Park (currently a redirect back to Sycamore Shoals State Historic Area) (move · discuss) – The state park was renamed per the official Tennessee State Parks website from "Area" to "Park". ACase0000 (talk) 19:24, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
- @ACase0000: There's a lot of duplicated content between Sycamore Shoals State Historic Area and Sycamore Shoals. I wonder if merging the two might be a better outcome here. --Ahecht (TALK
