Requested move

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. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: consensus to move the page, per the discussion below. (Adding hatnote as suggested as well. Dekimasuよ! 01:57, 26 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Battle of Vernon (Florida) → Battle of Vernon – There may be other cities and towns of Vernon, like Vernon, California. However, there are no other articles titled "Battle of Vernon", and there are no other known conflicts in other Vernons. If you want "Florida" to remain, how about the comma-separated disambiguation per WP:COMMADIS, Battle of Vernon, Florida? The current title is parenthetical disambiguation. In this case, it's disambiguated by a U.S. state, not a year. Therefore, if "Florida" shall be kept, then parenthetical disambiguation must not be used.

Support per nom. (But there's no reason to change it to "Battle of Vernon, Florida", so I'd oppose that. Battle names are not place names, and the convention of adding state names after commas doesn't extend to them in general usage.) —innotata 18:42, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
