The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: no consensus. 2 propositions were raised in this RM: "Zachary Bluestone" and "Zack Bluestone". Given that no concrete consensus came out of any of them, and that it's been 3 weeks since the RM opened, I'm closing it as "no consensus".

Zach Bluestone → Zachary BluestoneZachary Bluestone – This article was created and curated in draft space as Draft:Zachary Bluestone. However, when it was moved to article space, the mover unilaterally changed the name to Zach Bluestone. ~~While this individual does use this diminutive version of his name,~~ (refer to my response comment about his diminutive name) reliable sources overwhelmingly use Zachary Bluestone. The article title should be returned to Zachary Bluestone per WP:COMMONNAME. Appropriate mention of the diminutive ~~Zach~~ Zack is made in the lead of the article.

Move to Zack Bluestone. This actually appears to be his common name, rather than Zach. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:27, 28 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Response The previous poster's comment regarding his diminutive being Zack is well taken and I have updated the lead of the article accordingly. However, Zachary greatly predominates in reliable sources, so I will stick to my original position regarding the article name. Safiel (talk) 00:13, 31 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
