On 11 July 2023, it was proposed that this article be moved to United Australia Party (2013-). The result of the discussion was no consensus. |
This article is written in Australian English, which has its own spelling conventions (colour, realise, program, labour (but Labor Party)) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English. According to the relevant style guide, this should not be changed without broad consensus. |

To avoid possible rejection by the AEC, the name of the party has been changed to "Palmer United Party" http://www.theage.com.au/opinion/political-news/uap-renamed-as-palmer-united-party-20130512-2jfml.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by Flat Out ( talk • contribs) 2013-05-12T03:44:02
I know this was discussed in August 2021 but I think this article name is confusing and I ended up editing Ralph Babet to remove him from the category and the party from the info box before self-reverting. Given Palmer keeps doing this every election cycle, de-registering after each election in order to deliberately avoid the party's obligations and then registering again just before elections I think we can safely assume this party is going to last some time. Therefore I would propose renaming the page and the associated category to United Australia Party (2013-). AlanS talk 07:11, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: no consensus. ( closed by non-admin page mover) EggRoll97 ( talk) 05:31, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
United Australia Party (2013) → United Australia Party (2013-) – It's pretty well established that Palmer re-registers the party just prior to each federal election only to de-registered just after in order to avoid any obligations. I think we should for all intents and purposes treat it as a going concern and the name change would support that. I previously found the current name confusing as being a party that existed for a single campaign. Therefore, I propose the name change. If there hadn't been recent debate in August 2021 I would probably just be bold and change it but there has been previous discussion so I'm putting it up for debate.

If two parties in the same country have identical names then they could be differentiated by year of establishment: Communist Party of Sweden (1924) and Communist Party of Sweden (1995)). If that date is insufficient, I would not object to using the next option, party-leader disambiguation, which would give United Australia Party (Clive Palmer). {{replyto| SilverLocust}} ( talk) 07:54, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
