Requested move

G.I. Joe (Commodore 64) → G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero (video game) — G.I. Joe (Commodore 64) is incorrect since this game was for the Apple II as well. Also, the full name of the game is G. I. Joe: A Real American Hero, not simply "G.I. Joe". "G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero" is also the name of a toy line from Hasbro. The normal way to disambiguate video game titles that clash like this is by attaching "(video game)" after the title. But that name is blacklisted for some reason, hence the move request. — Frεcklεfσσt | Talk 13:21, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes sir, sir! Didn't seem protected to me, but maybe my admin-superpowers were needed for this job. May need to be further disamiguated to (1985 video game) if there were any other similar titles. BOZ (talk) 16:06, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Do I need to close this discussion or do you do that? — Frεcklεfσσt | Talk 16:24, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
