The result of the move request was: no consensus. ErikHaugen (talk | contribs) 05:56, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

6th Prince of Wales's Cavalry → 6th King Edward’s Own Cavalry – The new name is the last name this regiment was known by which is even mentioned in the article. This link shows the correct name etc [1]. Jim Sweeney (talk) 10:35, 24 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. No evidence supporting the move in terms of WP:AT. The article is so stubby that a move is at least premature. See also WP:official names if the policy at WP:AT needs explanation. Andrewa (talk) 15:58, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think the evidence is that the vast majority of article links point to the 6th King Edward’s Own Cavalry and not the 6th Prince of Wales.Jim Sweeney (talk) 16:26, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
