An unfortunate second relist, but probably necessary given renewed discussion—collapsed to reduce confusion. Please continue any further discussion on the new proposal in the section below.

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows. This would close with no consensus, but given the renewed discussion and new proposal, the overall request will remain open. RM is now updated with newly proposed target. -2pou (talk) 16:08, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply] Oppose Acronyms are usually discouraged in titles per MOS:ACROTITLE. Why are you satisfied that all the conditions for using an acronym are met? (t · c) buidhe 06:47, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply] @Buidhe: Because officially it's not "Rail India Technical and Economic Service" anymore. The official website doesn't have the full name anymore. Hardly any notable media mentions it with the full name.  Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe  09:46, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply] Oppose. No evidence that this is now the common name. The change of official name is irrelevant. Andrewa (talk) 16:28, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply] @Andrewa: "Rail India Technical and Economic Service" google search shows about 3,46,00,000 results. And "RITES" about 17,10,00,000 results.  Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe  09:50, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply] As one would expect, rites being a common English word with other meanings. Andrewa (talk) 10:26, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply] That's why I have edited the move request to RITES Ltd.  Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe  13:55, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply] Which means that the evidence previously submitted is no longer relevant, and nor are the !votes.

Alternate proposal survey

I suggest that people might like to !vote below on the alternate suggestion of RITES Ltd.RITES Ltd.. Please base your arguments on the article name policy of course. Note particularly wp:NAMECHANGES and Wikipedia:Naming conventions (companies). Andrewa (talk) 05:55, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose seen no evidence that the proposal is the common name for the article topic in independent RS. (t · c) buidhe 03:32, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose per Buidhe. The current title seems fine.  — Amakuru (talk) 09:59, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• @Andrewa:, Thanks for the necessary modifications. I want to add another thing on why the article should be renamed. It is pronounced as "RAEETS Limited" instead of "R-I-T-E-S" depicting its not just the acronym. Attaching video refs^[1][2]  Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe  18:05, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
