Afghan unlawful killings inquiry → Independent Inquiry relating to Afghanistan (United Kingdom) – In my view the current page title doesn’t comply with WP:AT, the inquiry is properly called the Independent Inquiry Relating to Afghanistan and therefore the Naturalness characteristic of WP:CRITERIA would be better served by a name change. Secondly, the current name, is not, in my view sufficiently precise for WP:CRITERIA as it could equally refer to the Brereton Report and there is nothing to link it to the UK. Thirdly, the current title presupposes the inquiry’s outcome. While the inquiry cannot determine if unlawful killings took place, part of its terms of reference are to identify if there is credible evidence of unlawful killings which require further investigation. Retaining the current name implies that the inquiry has already concluded that there is such evidence. OnePipWonder (talk) 20:31, 10 May 2026 (UTC) — Relisting.
