Etihad → Etihad (disambiguation) – The WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for "Etihad" is Etihad Airways, per search results and page views. "Etihad" should redirect to the airline, with a hatnote to the disambiguation page. SSTflyer 10:57, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose Etihad just means "united" in Arabic, it doesn't only refer to the airline. In ictu oculi (talk) 12:20, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
- Wikipedia isn't a translation dictionary. The primary encyclopedic topic for "etihad" is the airline. SSTflyer 13:35, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
- Support per page view stats. Someone searching "Etihad" is more likely than not wanting the airline. -- Tavix (talk) 17:31, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
- Support: Airline appears to be primary topic. Should the airline article then be moved to "Etihad", or left at its existing title with a redirect? I leave that to those expert in naming airlines. PamD 08:53, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
- The title of the airline article should stay at Etihad Airways, because that is the WP:COMMONNAME. SSTflyer 13:37, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
- Support The airline is quite clearly the common referent of "Etihad". Though Etihad Airways is the full name, it is rarely used. --Macrakis (talk) 13:58, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
