The result of the move request was: moved as proposed, with the exception of Template:XfD relist (reasonable argument made). Primefac (talk) 17:43, 3 October 2020 (UTC) Primefac (talk) 17:43, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Relisted → Template:Relist icon
Template:Relist → Template:AfD relist
Template:Relisting → Template:RM relist

– I find it odd that templates for the terms "Relist", "Relisted", and "Relisting" do such different things. I think it would be more intuitive if each was named specifically for its purpose (generating an icon, relisting an AfD, relisting an RM), with incoming redirects for other conjugations and XfD variations as needed.

Support. Entirely sensible to introduce logic the names of related things. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:19, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support. "Relisted icon" might be a better name for the first one as the text there uses "Relisted". Also, for this move to be useful, transclusions should be updated and then the old targets either deleted or redirected to the same place. --Gonnym (talk) 09:11, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- I would assume all transclusions would be redirected. There are probably too many to bother transcluding. BD2412 T 15:59, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: As long as the titles are not immediately repurposed or retargeted after their moves, considering such changes will break things like WP:Twinkle and WP:XFDcloser, I have no opposition. Steel1943 (talk) 22:49, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Oh hold up ... Oppose Template:Relist → Template:AfD relist. Should be "Template:XfD relist". Steel1943 (talk) 22:51, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  - I have no objection to that, so long as Template:AfD relist redirects to the resulting Template:XfD relist. BD2412 T 16:04, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Both Twinkle and XFcloser can and should be updated to use the new names, after which redirecting the current names will not break anything. There is no reason for this move if the situation which brought this RM isn't corrected. --Gonnym (talk) 10:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support and thank you, because I always forget which one to use while relisting RMs. -- Calidum 16:46, 15 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support: eminently sensible proposal. Venue disambiguation is much clearer for new closers than odd conventions. SITH (talk) 11:49, 17 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
