I suggest we change the name of the article

Before this Article was "Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland", it was "The Irish Film Board", which "Bórd Scannáin na hÉireann" redirected to. As such, I think we should rename this article to "Screen Ireland", with redirects from BSÉ, IFB, and Fís Éireann. This is also backed up at WP:IMOS. Because I am all but certain that the article should be moved, I will do so in one week unless there is an objection.

I forgot to sign that last comment Xx78900 (talk) 18:21, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Its official name is "Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland", and it is referred to as such in a myriad of places. Given the Irish language is our official first language, why would we want to change this? From what I can see, it passes WP:IMOS under this name - Alison ^❤ 17:30, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- The official name for government organizations are written as Irishname/Englishname. There's nothing to say both names have to be included every time, or that they realistically expect other people to do so.
  The WP:COMMONNAME is clearly "Screen Ireland" [1][2][3][4] and there is absolutely no need to write both the Irish and English names more than once.
  The above suggestion to have this page be named "Screen Ireland" and have Fís Éireann and others as redirects makes a lot of sense. -- 109.79.161.25 (talk) 10:16, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  - Why hasn't this been changed and the primary page moved to Screen Ireland already? -- 109.77.211.177 (talk) 16:57, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - 109.77.211.177 (talk · contribs · WHOIS), I started a discussion below to request a move. Erik (talk | contrib) ^{(ping me)} 17:23, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I was only wholeheartedly agreeing with the very sensible suggestion from Allison. Thanks for sorting out the page move. (I should probably try to improve this article but it is a government funding agency, important but also incredibly boring.) -- 109.77.204.119 (talk) 20:50, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland → Screen Ireland – Saw this comment in recent changes and reviewed this matter and believe that this article being at Screen Ireland is appropriate. Another IP editor in the above discussion linked to several reliable sources using "Screen Ireland" as a common name, and looking at mention of this organization in the past month shows just "Screen Ireland" showing up. (Googling for "Screen Ireland" will show "Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland", and while this shows up in results too, it's not very many compared to just "Screen Ireland".) So this seems appropriate per WP:COMMONNAME, especially being more concise without losing any value. Erik (talk | contrib) ^{(ping me)} 17:22, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
