Requested move 5 June 2022

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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Split. No consensus on how to balance scope accuracy and consistency. But Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's setup may provide the inspiration for a solution: replace the redirect at the proposed title with a non-list article describing the role itself, and leave this list as is.

List of chief ministers of Balochistan → Chief Minister of Balochistan – Article is about "Chief minister of Balochistan" like other Pakistani Provinces, Chief Minister of Sindh, Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Chief Minister of Gilgit-Baltistan, Chief Minister of Punjab (Pakistan). 103.141.159.228 (talk) 04:55, 4 June 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi!

This is a contested technical request (permalink). GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 13:57, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've already rejected this once. This is a list article and doesn't need to be moved. ─ The Aafī on Mobile ^{^(talk)} 20:58, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- This article is constructed same like other Pakistani articles, Please review them Chief Minister of Sindh, Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Chief Minister of Gilgit-Baltistan, Chief Minister of Punjab (Pakistan) List of chief ministers is added in articles sections. My move request is uncontroversial technical request please approve it, if anyones wants to dispute my move request, you can undo it anytime.103.141.159.228 (talk) 21:11, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - Chief Minister of Gilgit-Baltistan, Chief Minister of Punjab (Pakistan) should both be renamed to "List of x". If you look at Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa you will see a proper article, indeed, the list has been removed from that article. This article clearly isn't in that kind of shape. It instead looks more like list of chief ministers of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 02:35, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per my rejection at the RMT. ─ The Aafī on Mobile ^{^(talk)} 05:29, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose there is not enough non-list content to make this a regular article instead of a list article -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 02:33, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support this article is about the *government position* itself and not necessarily just a list. I agree that it is worth fleshing out the context surrounding the position, but this name change would better conform with the existing precedent for these sorts of articles. --Middle river exports (talk) 20:36, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
