*'''Oppose'''. The [[wp:official name|official name]] is of course used in [[wp:primary source|primary source]]s. That means nothing. The claim that the current name is a mistranslation, and so not in some sense [[wp:correct|correct]], is similarly irrelevant. In order to move the article, we need evidence that the proposed name better meets the [[wp:article name policy|article name policy]] than the current name does, and we have none.

**{{re|Andrewa}} Saying it "means nothing" is harsh, isn't it? If I manage to produce the evidence, would you change your opinion? Or is this trolling and I shouldn't even bother? [[User:Wanchan2020|Wanchan2020]] ([[User talk:Wanchan2020|talk]]) 11:16, 15 May 2021 (UTC) |

New Japan Pro-Wrestling World → NJPW World – Being the service URL and the logo and more commonly used by users and in the media, it is WP:COMMONNAME and also the preferred name on NJPW's official English website[1][2].

- Oppose no indication that this acronym meets WP:ACROTITLE, part of the article titles policy (t · c) buidhe 07:16, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
Requested move 6 May 2021
New Japan Pro-Wrestling World → NJPW World – It is the official English name. Current title is a mistranslation of the Japanese name. Wanchan2020 (talk) 09:48, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- Pinging @McPhail, HHH Pedrigree, Piotr Bart, King Rudra, and TheDeviantPro. Wanchan2020 (talk) 09:48, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support It's the common and official name. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 10:31, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose move, we just did this one a month ago. WP:ACROTITLE applies here and there's no evidence the initials form the common name. O.N.R. (talk) 11:18, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Old Naval Rooftops and Buidhe: "We" didn't. It was just me and one user unfamiliar with the subject who I didn't contest due to a lack of support. Proposed article name isn't an acronym. Nor is the existing name a descriptive title derived from "New Japan Pro-Wrestling". Nor is there evidence that the existing name is the common name that trumps the official name. Wanchan2020 (talk) 20:24, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support per the website for the service. To quote from the terms of use, "These Terms of Use ("Terms") set forth the terms of use of the service ("Service") provided on the "NJPW WORLD" website ("Website")". "NJPW World" is the official name of the service. McPhail (talk) 15:15, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
