Requested move

The following discussion is an archived 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. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Moved to Strömberg (company). Adding the accent is not controversial, but there is no consensus to remove the parenthesized disambiguator 'company'. The article is mostly about the historical Strömberg company that existed from 1889 to 1987 so there is not much incentive to rename it in deference to its current status as a division of another one. If we wanted the most current name then ABB Strömberg would be an option. EdJohnston (talk) 18:19, 4 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Stromberg (company) → Strömberg – The correct spelling for the company name is Strömberg. Gwafton (talk) 20:10, 27 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Move instead to ~~Strömberg (company)~~, Strömberg should probably be retargeted to Strömberg (surname), or have the surname move over the Strömberg redirect. In ictu oculi (talk) 23:39, 27 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Oppose, Move to ABB Strömberg as 65.94.171.126In ictu oculi (talk) 04:51, 28 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Oppose Strömberg should be repointed to Stromberg (disambiguation), per Strömberg (surname). The article states the company name as ABB Oy, part of the "ABB Group". While "Oy" isn't the ideal disambiguator, it does indicate country. There is also ABB Strömberg that is indicative of history and corporate links -- 65.94.171.126 (talk) 03:22, 28 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

As far as I know, name ABB Strömberg was in use only for a short period. The article does not tell very much about the current Finnish branch of ABB, it is focussed on Strömberg history. If Strömberg is not a suitable name for the article, what about Strömberg (company), as user In ictu oculi suggested at the beginning? I agree that Oy is not a good disambiguator. --Gwafton (talk) 20:24, 31 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Oppose the move as proposed per 65.94.171.126 but support a move if agreed to by others. — AjaxSmack 14:27, 28 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
