- 19:3819:38, 16 August 2024 diff hist +817 Talk:Sergiy →Requested move 16 August 2024: *'''Support''' per nomination. "Sergiy" is an outdated transliteration based upon the Russian form "Sergey". Ukrainian language does not use the letter "g" and Russian language does not use the letter "h", thus Sergiy should redirect to Serhii, rather than Serhii redirecting, as it currently does, to Sergiy. English Wikipedia has numerous "Serhii ..." entries, such as Serhii Adamchuk, Serhii Bohachuk, Serhii Cherniavskyi Tag: Disambiguation links added
- 19:0419:04, 16 August 2024 diff hist +491 Talk:Killing of Hae Min Lee *'''Support''' per nomination and per convincing examples of other such Wikipedia main title headers. Since prosecution tried this as a case of murder and, since the jury agreed with the term "murder" and convicted the accused under that term, the term "murder" is obviously the correct one, regardless of subsequent events.
