Why was that photo deleted? I remember it as being an old grainy side-view of the engine, in a railyard somewhere. --76.105.145.143 (talk) 09:52, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. Better reflects the scope of the article. Another RM can be held later on how to unify the name of this with the other Russian locomotive class articles.

4-14-4 → Soviet locomotive class AA20 – As there is only one locomotive class with a 4-14-4 wheel arrangement, and the article spends most of its time talking about that class, it makes sense to rename the article to specifically be about that class.

Support move, but not sure about the target. Most other locomotives from the Soviet Union are at "Russian locomotive" (Russian locomotive class IS, Russian locomotive class P36, Russian locomotive class LV, etc). We may need a separate discussion to decide if consistency or accuracy is more important for all articles in this class. Tevildo (talk) 20:32, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I note that all those article have "Soviet locomotive" in the lede and infobox. I'm not fussed about the precise new title, though. I just copied what was in the infobox. --Eldomtom2 (talk) 22:11, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Soviet locomotive class AA20 → SŽD Class AA20 – Found the name for the soviet railways, (Sovetskie Zheleznye Dorogi) 61.68.110.36 (talk) 01:49, 30 November 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 08:16, 7 December 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

Comment: If this action is done, then this would mean that all the other Soviet and Russian locomotive articles would have to be moved in order to be consistent, and major rework would have to be done to the Template:Rolling stock of Russia navigation box. I wouldn't even be surprised if this request was denied. EditorGirlAL07 (talk) 19:02, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

oppose none of the citations or the russian wiki page use the proposed name—blindlynx 14:22, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
