Move page to Kool London?

As Kool FM has become Kool London, might it be time to make the primary page Kool London, with a redirect preserved from Kool FM (i.e. switching it around from the current Kool London redirecting to Kool FM? Altlondon (talk) 18:55, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Due to lack of any comment, I've now completed the move of content to Kool London and reversed the redirects. Altlondon (talk) 12:25, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 3 April 2023

The request to rename this article to Kool FM has been carried out.

If the page title has consensus, be sure to close this discussion using {{subst:RM top|'''page moved'''.}} and {{subst:RM bottom}} and remove the {{Requested move/dated|…}} tag, or replace it with the {{subst:Requested move/end|…}} tag.

Kool London → Kool FM – For many years, London radio station Kool has an article at Kool FM. In 2010, they started becoming also known as Kool London and so the article was moved, with Kool FM providing a redirect. Kool has since been taken over by Rinse FM and is to revert to its historical name of Kool FM. I did a Cut and Paste move between the two but this is apparently frowned upon. It just needs the main article at Kool London back to Kool FM, and then the redirect switched to Kool London. See two supporting refs: 77.86.103.78 (talk) 17:10, 2 April 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. – CityUrbanism 🗩 🖉 14:21, 11 April 2023 (UTC) This is a contested technical request (permalink).

Noting Talk:Kool_London#Move_page_to_Kool_London?. -Kj cheetham (talk) 17:28, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
For interest, cut and paste moved are "frowned upon" because it's required to be able to track contributions due to WP:ATTREQ. -Kj cheetham (talk) 17:31, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks Kj cheetham, understood. The revert from my Cut and Paste move by NP83 lost a key section with refs I added a few months back which notes the takeover of Kool by Rinse FM and their intentions to revert back to that historical name, new line-up, etc. Should provide better context. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.86.103.78 (talk) 18:05, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  - Are independant sources using the historical/new name? As that's typically more important than the official name as per WP:NAMECHANGES. -Kj cheetham (talk) 18:08, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    - This ResidentAdvisor ref^[1] notes the return to Kool FM, as does the official social media pages that were recently themselves renamed from facebook.com/koollondon to facebook.com/koolfmofficial and twitter.com/koollondon to twitter.com/koolfmofficial. The website ^[2] has now a holding/relaunch page with links to the renamed social media accounts 77.86.103.78 (talk) 18:20, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    - And a MixMag ref too^[3] 77.86.103.78 (talk) 18:44, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
