Phase-out of incandescent light bulbs → Prohibition of Incandescent Light-Bulbs – It's not really a phase out, but instead a Prohibition of the Manufacture and/or Sale of them. Qutlooker (talk) 23:32, 8 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. The article discusses bans in various jurisdictions which together comprise a phase out. Also, as proposed, the proposed target includes incorrect hyphenation and capitalization (like the nomination statement). Mdewman6 (talk) 03:55, 9 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose solely on the capitalization and hyphenation. Primergrey (talk) 05:35, 9 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. The current title seems fine to me. Rreagan007 (talk) 19:21, 9 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose There is no "prohibition" on the use of incandescent lights, just a phase-out of their production and sale in stores. The proposed title makes it seem like you would not be able to lawfully use the bulbs, which is incorrect. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 08:54, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
