Speedy nomination

Can't understand these trigger-happies who placing speedy deletion tag just five minute after creation of the stub. If one of the most import supervisory services of Russia does not serves its own article, you may as well delete 2/3 of Wikipeadia contest. There are lot of sources to establish its notability.

Federal Service of Ecological, Technological and Nuclear Supervision (Russia) → Rostekhnadzor – This page was moved from Rostekhnadzor to its current title by the edit summary: official, correct name. However, as the common name is Rostekhnadzor it should be preferred to the official name per WP:TITLE and WP:NCCORP should be preferred. Beagel (talk) 18:20, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rostekhnadzor → Federal Service for Environmental, Technological and Nuclear Supervision – Бундист moved page Rostekhnadzor to Federal Service for Environmental, Technological and Nuclear Supervision by reason: moving to full name of government agency, as per official English translation at http://en.gosnadzor.gov.ru/. However, as the current name is a result of the RM discussion, the longstanding name was restored and new RM discussion is started. Beagel (talk) 04:43, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Rostekhnadzor is the common name which should be preferred to the official name per WP:TITLE and WP:NCCORP. Beagel (talk) 04:44, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support. I moved it to the official English name for consistency, as that is what has been done for all other Russian govt. agency pages on wikipedia (see Template:Government of the Russian Federation). Not sure if an exception should be made for this agency. Should all existing Russian govt. agency sites be moved to their abbreviated titles? Бундист (talk) 04:47, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- In other words - this fits with the requirement for consistency at Wikipedia:Article titles#Deciding on an article title. I would also add that meaning would be lost if we kept the abbreviated title - as it is unclear to English speaking viewers what "Rostekhnadzor" means, while the full title clearly describes this government agency's functions. Бундист (talk) 04:50, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. No evidence that the current name Rostekhnadzor is not the common name in English, and it seems most unlikely that the proposed translation is in common use. The source cited is primary of course. Andrewa (talk) 16:07, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I also want to note that, looking at the English language government site - http://en.gosnadzor.gov.ru/ - the shorthand they provide there is "Rostechnadzor," rather than "Rostekhnadzor." What's the right way to adjudicate between these, given multiple translations/transliterations? Бундист (talk) 17:05, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Interesting... as I see it we have two decisions to make, one is whether the long or short form is used, and the other is, if we decide on the short form, which spelling to use. I as yet have no opinion on the spelling. But the official name doesn't seem to have anything going for it at all. So no change of !vote. Andrewa (talk) 11:59, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - Wiki does not automatically use official names. A GNews search for "Rostekhnadzor" returns 238 hits compared to only 7 hits for the proposed title indicating that the present title is in fact the WP:COMMONNAME. Also, the present name matches with similar articles better (e.g., Roscosmos). FOARP (talk) 11:53, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
