Please avoid "copy/paste moves"
[edit]See wp:moving a page. Please get wp:consensus before moving. Otherwise, it probably would be moved back. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 08:37, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
- I undid it again. If you look here: Category:Category 5 South Pacific cyclones, you will notice none of them have names such as Severe Tropical Cyclone Winston. Please leave it as Cyclone Winston. BTW: moving it requires changing anything that linked to the old page. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 09:45, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
- Please keep talk on one page. Since it was started here by me, please keep it here. You can notify me by adding
{{ping|Jim1138}}
your message and signing it with four tildes "~~~~" and save all at once with a page save. - The article should remain as Cyclone Winston. As I pointed out above, all other Category 5 cyclones retained their original name. See Category:Category 5 South Pacific cyclones for a list. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 09:57, 24 February 2016 (UTC)

Dropping in for some clarification on the matter. The articles are titled simply "Cyclone [Name] (year)"—or just "Cyclone [Name]" if a storm warrants WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, as is the case with Winston—in accordance with WP:COMMONNAME and WP:PRECISE. The vast majority of news sources do not include the "Severe Tropical" part and including it would be overly specific. Readers can understand that we're talking about a specific storm with just "Cyclone". Hopefully this clears things up . ~ Cyclonebiskit (chat) 10:15, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
