Closer claims that the sheer amount of NDAB supporters (those who opposed the move) makes this a no consensus close, but none of them showed that the NDAB title is something that the subject is "commonly called in English reliable sources", as the guideline requires. Those who did a search concluded that it wasn't, and this should have more weight that a simple vaguewave or "I prefer natural disambiguation". Practically nobody addressed the WP:CONSISTENCY issues either. Since the guidelines reflect the global consensus on the matter, the page should have been moved, even if there is roughly an equal number of supports and opposes.

Spekkios closed the discussion in good faith by counting the number of users that opposed vs. supported the move request but I do not believe that WP:RMCLOSE was followed as well as it could have been. One minor complaint would be the lack of a closing summary but that is not a major issue. These disagreements typically revolve around how much we should weigh regular use by reliable, English language secondary sources vs. ngrams and google search results. While there were more opposes, I believe that properly weighing consensus with applicable policies and guidelines, particularly WP:COMMONNAME would support moving the article to the current official name. Opposition raised by
BilledMammal largely focused on Opposition raised by Ale3353 focused on an Encyclopedia Brittanica entry that had not been updated since 2008. I personally believe that closer examination of sources shows that a significant majority of news agencies have used the current name, Komani, almost exclusively for quite some time. South Africa's largest news outlets, including News24, eNCA, The Herald, Daily Dispatch, The Rep (a newspaper within Komani), SABC News, Algoa FM, and Jacaranda FM have all switched over to the new name almost exclusively as far as I can tell.
