E.M.Gregory, I don't think it's even possible that the longer name (with the unnecessary disambiguator) is more common. It's not natural. Google seems to confirm this. It gives me 2.950 results for "2016 Ohio State University attack" -wikipedia and 12.600 results for "Ohio State University attack" -wikipedia -"2016 ohio state university attack". Besides, the unnecessary disambiguation is against WP:PRECISE and WP:CONCISE. Surtsicna ( talk) 11:40, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
The redirect Abdul Razak Ali Artan, which points to this article, is in Category:African Americans shot dead by law enforcement officers in the United States. At CfD recently there was a consensus to move some articles in that category to a new category, Category:African people shot dead by law enforcement officers in the United States. For categorisation purposes is Artan, who was born in Africa but became a legal permanent resident of the U.S., an African American, an African person, or both? – Arms & Hearts ( talk) 16:49, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: No consensus. It is clear that these moves should be treated and discussed individually, rather than as a group, particularly when one of them has already seen consensus for the current name at a recent RM. — Amakuru ( talk) 12:37, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
– The naming convention in use for incidents (including terrorist attacks) is
WP:NCEVENTS, which requires in the majority of cases
to indicate in the title when the incident happened. Adding the date would also make the title
WP:CONSISTENT with the majority of other vehicle-ramming attacks. See
this comprehensive list of vehicle-ramming attacks.
