Fury of Firestorm Vol 1 1 to Fury of Firestorm Vol 2 1
We had this discussion before, I still think it should be Vol 2. Firestorm Vol 2 is actually Fury of Firestorm Vol 1. -- Tupka 217 22:38, July 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * I agree. Before Firestorm Vol 2 it was renamed to plain "Firestorm" it WAS The Fury of Firestorm Vol 1. It's like counting Aquaman Vol 7 as Vol 6 just because the real Vol 6 got renamed to "Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis". Smash Brawler 23:31, September 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * I also agree. I was very confused at this one being called volume 1. That is incorrect. Goblyn4evil 22:30, December 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * Wouldn't it be even more accurate to have it at Fury of Firestorm: The Nuclear Men Vol 1? Kyletheobald 03:02, December 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * Since it's marketed on DC's website that way, I''d say yes.--08:34, December 17, 2011 (UTC)Tupka 217


 * I would agree as well. Popluvah22 04:31, February 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * How about this. Firestorm Vol 2 to Fury of Firestorm Vol 1, and Fury of Firestorm Vol 1] to Fury of Firestorm Vol 2? I don't want to have to distinguish between "the nuclear man" and "the nuclear men" when it's really the same book anyway. - Hatebunny (talk) 19:35, October 12, 2012 (UTC)

I know this is a very old topic by now but I just want to add my two cents and agree with this proposed move. DrJohnnyDiablo (talk) 06:22, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

Wonder Woman's Invisible Jet to Wonder Woman's Invisible Plane
Because the Golden Age version was not a jet. -- Tupka 217 16:38, September 21, 2013 (UTC)

Victor Frankenstein (Earth-Two) to Baron Frankenstein (Earth-Two)
Nowhere in his one appearance is this character's first name given. I'm not sure where "Victor" came from. Shadzane (talk) 18:43, December 3, 2013 (UTC)


 * As it's based on the fictional character who appears in Shelley's (public domain) book, it stands to reason that his name would be Victor and not something else, whether mentioned or not. - Hatebunny (talk) 16:41, January 21, 2014 (UTC)


 * But the whole theme of the story was that Shelley's book was very different from what "really" happened. In the book, the monster is made up of revived corpses. In the "real history", the monster was just a very tall guy who went crazy when he got an incomplete shot of adrenalin. Etc. So we would actually expect Shelly's book to change Frankenstein's first name. Shadzane (talk) 18:29, January 21, 2014 (UTC)


 * ... would we, though? - Hatebunny (talk) 19:16, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

Mister Toxic (Prime Earth) to Hugh Marder Clone (Prime Earth)
Boy, this page has been renamed a couple of times, hasn't it? Anyway, technically, this is what he is. He's a faulty clone of Hugh Marder, not his own separate person. Just like Bruce Wayne Clone (New Earth), I think this name change is necessary. --- Haroldrocks  talk  22:14, December 3, 2013 (UTC)


 * I don't know how anyone else (besides Harold) feels about it, but I'd rather leave this at Mister Toxic than call it "Hugh Marder (Clone)", if only because I hate (qualifier)s - Hatebunny (talk) 16:41, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

Kindly Ones to Three Witches
Kindly Ones is a translation of Eumenides, one of the names of the Erinyes (and used for them in-universe). Three Witches covers their function better, as that's their primary role in the DCU/Gaimanverse. Their Who's Who is even called that. -- Tupka 217 18:18, December 8, 2013 (UTC)

Teen Titans Go Vol 1 + the series to Teen Titans Go! Vol 1
I've seen this for a long time but never had the audacity to bring up a move. However, I've just noticed that a new Teen Titans Go! comic series is arriving next week, based on the newer show of course. It would be odd to have a Teen Titans Go! Vol 2 if Vol 1 technically does not exist. I know it's a lot of work to move, but it seems necessary. --- Haroldrocks  talk  02:19, December 11, 2013 (UTC)

Patrick O'Brien (Earth-Teen Titans) to Patrick O'Brian (Earth-Teen Titans)
I goofed up. I took the last name "O'Brien" straight from the page without even bothering to check. The appearance and image pages need it, too. --- Haroldrocks  talk  01:38, December 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * I can't recall how many times I made that mistake. -- Tupka 217 11:03, January 20, 2014 (UTC)

New Gods (New Earth) to New Gods
How about we move it back? New Gods is an alien race, not a group. And I don't like having a disambig for just the race and then a half-dozen of comics with that name. -- Tupka 217 10:57, December 24, 2013 (UTC)


 * Something will have to be done with New Gods first. The bot can't move one page to another that already exists. - Hatebunny (talk) 16:41, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

Condition Red (Wildstorm Universe) to Caleb (Wildstorm Universe)
Max Cash was CR too. -- Tupka 217 15:26, December 28, 2013 (UTC)

Athyns of Karrakan to Athyns of Karrakan (New Earth)
Consus, the Erudite God created the page without the dab. This was after creating the related Sparta of Synriannaq (New Earth) correctly. To be frank though, I'd think dropping the "... of Planet" from both would also be correct. - Byfield (talk) 22:39, December 31, 2013 (UTC)


 * The thing was, Athyns was already linked everywhere as Athyns, and Sparta as Sparta of Synriannaq. I'm okay, especially since we, AFAIK, do not have a homeworld of Xanthi and consistency and all. -- Tupka 217 11:35, January 1, 2014 (UTC)

Theia (New Earth) to Thia (New Earth)
Only (or at least, predominantly) referred to as Thia in the DCU. -- Tupka 217 14:28, January 1, 2014 (UTC)

Perisphere to Trylon and Perisphere
They're next to eachother. They're one. EVEN WIKIPEDIA doesn't have separate articles. -- Tupka 217 20:31, January 1, 2014 (UTC)

Sumo the Samurai (New Earth) to Sumo (New Earth)
To stay consistent with our naming. As far as I know, he doesn't really go by "Sumo the Samurai" anyway. --- Haroldrocks  talk  23:37, January 8, 2014 (UTC)

Rodeo Rick (New Earth) to Rodeo Rick (Earth-One)
As a far as I can discern, this guy had no post-crisis appearances or mentions, and is strictly an Earth-One character Shadzane (talk) 23:19, January 9, 2014 (UTC)

Floyd Lawton (Prime Earth) to Floyd Lawton, Jr. (Prime Earth)
As revealed in Justice League of America Vol 3 7.1: Deadshot, Prime Earth Deadshot is named after his father. Changing his page name to "Jr." would be both correct and also make room for a potential "Floyd Lawton, Sr. (Prime Earth)" page. --- Haroldrocks  talk  01:36, January 13, 2014 (UTC)


 * It would also annoy the hell out of me every time I have to link to Deadshot :( - Hatebunny (talk) 16:41, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

Edgar Stenville (Earth-Two) to Stenville (Earth-Two)
First name was never mentioned. Answerguy made it. -- Tupka 217 11:13, January 16, 2014 (UTC)

Sickle (New Earth) to Natasha Ulyanov (New Earth)
Same. Kyletheobald (talk) 05:19, January 17, 2014 (UTC)

Scare Tactics to Scare Tactics (New Earth)
Disambig. There's at least the team, comic, and the Batman storyline. Kyletheobald (talk) 16:34, January 19, 2014 (UTC)

Tuftan Caesar (The Brave and the Bold) to Tuftan (The Brave and the Bold)
Caesar's not a surname. -- Tupka 217 11:46, January 20, 2014 (UTC)

Olympia (Crisis on Two Earths) to Olympiad (Crisis on Two Earths)
Per this. Back when it was created, both versions of the name were floating around on the web, but this one seems to put it in the -d camp. -- Tupka 217 19:13, January 27, 2014 (UTC)

Infinity, Inc. (Earth-Two) to Infinity, Inc. I (New Earth)
See Talk: Infinity, Inc. (Earth-Two). DrJohnnyDiablo (talk) 21:35, January 28, 2014 (UTC)

Roy McQueen (Earth 2) to Connor Hawke (Earth 2)
If your like me and read the Earth 2 series would know that in Earth 2 Vol 1 14 they introduced the character Roy McQueen as Red Arrow, a World Amy with red hair and a robotic right arm, The character originally appeared to based on Roy Harper (New Earth), but in Earth 2 Vol 1 20 Red Arrow was speaking to Sonia Sato (Earth 2) who refereed to him as Connor Hawke. So I ask you my fellow wiki members to help me in correcting the information on the page and changing the name. (Shiplord13 (talk) 22:32, February 5, 2014 (UTC)).
 * So what´s the alias - Roy or Connor? If it´s Connor as listed in the character´s page, a move would make no sense since the real name determines the naming of the page. ---Lucien61 (talk) 23:41, February 5, 2014 (UTC)


 * I never remember seeing Roy McQueen in print to begin with. If I remember right, someone said it came from interviews. I'm fine having it moved to Connor. Kyletheobald (talk) 01:25, February 6, 2014 (UTC)


 * I don't think it has appeared in print either. It was James Robinson who created Red Arrow and said in interviews that his real name is Roy McQueen. However, now Tom Taylor has taken over writing duties and Sonia Sato calls him Connor Hawke, so either it's a mistake, Taylor didn't know or Taylor didn't want to go with Robinson's story for Red Arrow so instead made him the New 52 Connor Hawke. Not sure how you make a decision in this situation, unless you just wait and see what he gets called in later issues then currently call the article Red Arrow (Earth 2). - Doomlurker (talk) 14:42, February 6, 2014 (UTC)


 * If that's the case, move to Connor and mention the McQueen thing in a note, preferably with a source. -- Tupka 217 14:45, February 6, 2014 (UTC)


 * It was WonderCon last year, there are various sources stating Robinson's choice of name (Roy McQueen) such as: this. However, change of writer, change of decision, just like how he made Red Tornado into Lois. So it should be moved. - Doomlurker (talk) 16:53, February 6, 2014 (UTC)


 * Okay so with all of the support and evidence, is it safe for me to say that everyone is fine with the page being changed? - Shiplord13 (talk) 18:28, February 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * Yep. She will be moved next time we run a bot through. Kyletheobald (talk) 00:44, February 12, 2014 (UTC)

Loreli (New Earth) to Lorelei I (New Earth)
Lorelei is her correct name (as seen in the image). Internal chronology makes her the second Lorelei, but externally, she's the first. -- Tupka 217 11:09, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Xanna (Earth-Empire) to Xanna (Empire)
And all other Category:Empire Characters: Getting rid of old naming standard. -- Tupka 217 11:09, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Martha Kent (Earth-One) to Martha Clark (Earth-One)
Martha's maiden name was firmly established in Earth-One continuity. In fact, her parents' names were given in Superman Family #192 as Henry and Willa Clark. DrJohnnyDiablo (talk) 05:22, February 8, 2014 (UTC)

Little Raven (New Earth) to Charles Great Eagle (New Earth)
Via Raven's talk page. Kyletheobald (talk) 01:04, February 12, 2014 (UTC)

Tiny Titans/Little Archie and his Pals Vol 1 to Tiny Titans/Little Archie and His Pals Vol 1
Incorrect capitalization Shadzane (talk) 23:41, February 18, 2014 (UTC)


 * Not really - both are acceptable. And since comics can't be botmoved, but have to manually moved, with all their subpages and categories, plus relinking, I'm saying no. -- Tupka 217 12:23, February 20, 2014 (UTC)

Cartel to Cartel (Earth-One)
There's a new Cartel introduced in Lois Lane #1. Also, Penitente Cartel and Escabedo Cartel. -- Tupka 217 18:42, February 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * Is that group in Lois Lane officially called "Cartel"? From reading the comic, I got the impression that others in the criminal underworld called it "the cartel" because they thought it was a drug-smuggling-and-selling organization (and Lois picked that up), but it's much more then that and didn't call itself Cartel. Shadzane (talk) 17:15, March 6, 2014 (UTC)

Prixiam Nol-Anj (Prime Earth) to Nol-Anj (Prime Earth)
I think Prixiam is a title like Queen or Princess. Kyletheobald (talk) 15:41, March 6, 2014 (UTC)

Knor-El (Super-Brother Against Super-Brother!) to Knor-El (Earth-200)
It was originally at E-200, but it was moved because we didn't have a source. We have now, Abs COIE. -- Tupka 217 20:58, March 11, 2014 (UTC)

Paper-Man (Earth-One) to Horace Throstle (Earth-One)
Remember when the page was called Throstle, and I argued vehemently that only one site (notorious for its weird names) used that surname? Well, guess what's in the EWWE. -- Tupka 217 09:29, March 12, 2014 (UTC)

Paula von Gunther (Earth-One) to Paula von Gunta (Earth-One)
Earth-One's Paula is named Von Gunta, not Von Gunther. -- Tupka 217 21:15, March 13, 2014 (UTC)

Earth-3898 to Earth-3839
Incorrect number. Would need all the instances and (shudder) characters moved. -- Tupka 217 11:22, March 16, 2014 (UTC)

Justice Society (Collected) to Justice Society Vol. 1 (Collected)
There's a second volume. DrJohnnyDiablo (talk) 01:37, March 20, 2014 (UTC)
