Requested move 14 September 2023

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: Redirect 16S rRNA to 16S ribosomal RNA. Out of the two variations labeled as 16S rRNA, consensus has determined that the prokaryotic RNA is the primary topic among this disambiguation. A hatnote to the mitochondrial RNA is also implemented. (non-admin closure) Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 17:44, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

16S rRNA → 16S ribosomal RNA
16S ribosomal RNA → ?

– As far as I understand, this should either be disambiguated at 16S ribosomal RNA, or redirected to the article currently titled this way (with an according hatnote), since "rRNA" is just an abbreviation for "ribosomal RNA". 1234qwer 1234qwer 4 00:55, 14 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Note: pages with content, such as 16S ribosomal RNA, are ineligible to be proposed titles in move requests unless they, too, are formally dispositioned. "16S ribosomal RNA → ?" has been added to this request to meet that requirement. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. ^{put'er there} 20:47, 14 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Blank and redirect to 16S ribosomal RNA, and add hatnote to the mitochondrial gene. The move request is incomplete, as the request is to move the dab page over an article. But the prokaryotic version is the clear primary topic, and the abbreviation should redirect there, with a hatnote to the secondary topic. Mdewman6 (talk) 16:00, 14 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the BLAR to 16S ribosomal RNA and added hatnote as the most sensible outcome for searching 16s rRNA. ― Synpath 21:31, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
