- Second Jassy–Kishinev Offensive (currently a redirect to Second Jassy–Kishinev offensive) → Jassy–Kishinev Offensive (currently a redirect instead to Jassy–Kishinev offensive) (move · discuss) – WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. The existence of a “first Jassy-Kishinev Offensive” is a novel theory, the term has been consistently used since 1944 to refer to the events in August 1944.

- Comment are you saying that the First Jassy–Kishinev Offensive is a hoax? Shouldn't you nominated the article for deletion first then? -- 70.31.205.108 (talk) 15:20, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Not a hoax per se, but a theory that attempts to connect several events proposed by an academic with proper qualifications. Considering the lack of other academics adopting or confirming this view, probably the article should be the book, not about the posited offensive. The title itself however is a wikipedian invention (that seeped into some recent fiction books, as can be seen in a Google Books search).Anonimu (talk) 16:40, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

- Moria (video game) (currently a redirect to Moria) → Moria (roguelike) (move · discuss) – WP:AT ambiguous disambiguation is a bad idea. This game is a roguelike, a type of video game. Moria (PLATO) is also a videogame. The current title should point to the disambiguation, Moria, where the games are listed. -- 70.31.205.108 (talk) 15:16, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Per WP:NCGAMESDAB, the way to disambiguate video games is by year, not subgenre. However, a better disambiguation would be to move Moria (video game) to Dungeons of Moria (video game), but that would only be if neither game is the primary topic. Given that the only information on the web about the PLATO game is either taken from that single Armchair Arcade article or from Wikipedia, it seems that the "roguelike" game is the primary topic. --Ahecht (TALK
