Article title

Seems Darshan is back to being ZionSpartan again. On one hand, per WP:ABOUTSELF, his self-identification should be honored. On the other hand, his career as ZionSpartan II is likely to be totally irrelevant unless he claws his way back from Academy (the minor league equivalent of the LCS). Can also just go with Darshan Upadhyaya if figuring out which screenname to use is too difficult. Thoughts? SnowFire (talk) 23:55, 3 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Talking to myself here, but think a move to just his actual real-life name is merited. If there's multiple screennames that are all relevant, best thing is just to use the real name and discuss all of them in the lede. SnowFire (talk) 06:40, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

ZionSpartan → Darshan Upadhyaya – Restore older title. Darshan has mercurially switched between two screennames a lot, and he hasn't been playing as ZionSpartan for ~6 months. Rather than continue chasing down the latest screenname, just use his name instead. Disagree with earlier RM nom's comment on WP:COMMONNAME - some of this player's biggest successes and highest points of notability were while playing under the screenname "Darshan" (see this 2016 article that never uses "ZionSpartan" for example).

Ping for @Pbrks: and @Ortizesp: from the previous RM in case you have any thoughts on this one. SnowFire (talk) 07:19, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support either Darshan (gamer) or Darshan Upadhyaya as indeed Darshan is his current handle, and anyone looking him up would likely search for "Darshan". — Pbrks (talk) 14:33, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Support either of these tbh.--Ortizesp (talk) 19:23, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
