Preußenschlag → 1932 Prussian coup d'état – A search on Google Scholar (filtering for English language results) finds for the current title there are just over 100 results and of these, about 1/3 are actually German language text. Searching for 1932 Prussia coup gets significantly more results and reveals that the majority of sources refer to this event descriptively, for example: "the infamous coup that toppled from power the last democratically-elected Prussian government", "Chancellor Franz von Papen’s coup d’etat against the incumbent Social Democratic government of Prussia", "the Reich coup against Prussia in July 1932", "1932 coup in Prussia", "Papen's Prussian coup of July 20, 1932", etc. I don't think the current title is very recognizable to English speakers and it isn't used in the majority of English language sources, so I propose renaming this to 1932 Prussian coup d'état in line with the titles of the majority of other coup articles where there is no common name.
