- Oppose - as Talk:Lu Lin (footballer), it is not en.wp practice to distinguish on variations in romanization systems. Neither Lu Lin, or the other with an umlaut are real names like we might (but also usually don't) distinguish a German vs an American name because of lack of an umlaut in the American, but representations of Chinese characters in a romanization system. The system distinguishes a closed "u" with an umlaut yes, but it isn't an umlaut that is part of the real name as German, only a representation. This is en.wp practice (as the status quo on these articles indicates) and I believe should be written into WP:PINYIN. In ictu oculi (talk) 00:55, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- Support Lü Bin because a diacritic is sufficient enough if there is no other. Oppose Lu Bin - I didn't know what a "sprinter" is until I found sprint (running). However, "(sprinter)" should help readers a lot more. --George Ho (talk) 04:11, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose this should be called Lu Bin (swimmer) per WP:PINYIN. The current name contravenes WP:ORIGINALRESEARCH, as it is not supported by the references used. The only reference uses "Lu" -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 04:48, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- Support Lü Bin because it is unique; Oppose Lu Bin because it is not. The umlaut in "Lü Bin" is frequently dropped in English sources, making it indistinguishable from Lu Bin. -Zanhe (talk) 15:50, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
