2024 Varzaqan helicopter crash → 2024 Iranian leadership helicopter crash – Similar to 2023 Wagner Group plane crash. The current title really undersells the significance of this event. Bremps... 15:41, 19 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Comment — I amended your move as this is a helicopter crash. I made the same mistake myself. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 15:48, 19 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
I think I'd be supportive, but I would prefer if we could please wait until things settle down a little. We don't even fully know what happened yet, let alone have a WP:COMMONNAME. Current events articles immediately getting a bazillion move requests opened is definitely a pet peeve of mine, we may as well close as no consensus now.

In general, I agree with you, but 2024 Iranian Presidential Helicopter Crash seems safe. No one is denying that the President was aboard. 2600:4040:297C:8F00:A9E5:4E04:EFC7:7F73 (talk) 16:24, 19 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
That name would work but it would undersell the fact that the FM was also onboard. Bremps... 16:30, 19 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Support but we gotta wait a bit Waleed (talk) 16:38, 19 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

As of now, I probably wouldn't support it just to be consistent with other article titles. From what I've seen, they describe the location of the crash rather than who was aboard. Triclops Queen (talk) 16:39, 19 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
comment maybe changing the title into "2024 iranien president's helicopter crash" would be the most the most relevent. all the media are emphasizing on Raisi's presence in the choper here CNN https://edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/raisi-iran-president-helicopter-crash/index.html Anticonstitutionnelist (talk) 16:50, 19 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Oppose for now. Too clunky title. Borgenland (talk) 17:24, 19 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Oppose — Per Borgenland. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 17:37, 19 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Oppose for now. It is appropriately titled per WP:NCE. We should not rename until a commonname is more established. --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 17:40, 19 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
