Uncontroversial technical requests
- Draft:Proof (album) (currently a redirect to Proof (album)) → Proof (album) (move · discuss) – Redirect preventing move to mainspace. No other article exists with title. Carlobunnie (talk) 20:07, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose speedy move This is an unreleased album. Wait until after it is released -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 02:45, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
- Album articles/stubs can be created prior to an album's release though. There is significant coverage of the release thus far. And this will only increase in the coming days. -- Carlobunnie (talk) 03:05, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
- It might move to Proof (BTS album), but as it is an unreleased album, it should not move to cover the disambiguation page link. This isn't a studio album, and is a compilation album, so it isn't a key album release -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 03:15, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
- You cannot genuinely think that the BTS album would not be the more searched for topic, as opposed to albums of the same name by Emily Elbert and Colour Coding (neither of which are notable enough for their own standalone articles), both of whom have received 724 and 83 views to their respective articles within the last 60 days, while the BTS, the Best album (which is a compilation album and not a "key release" according to you) has over 10,000 views within the same period. CC is a defunct Aussie indie band that lasted 2 years, surely you can't think their album would be the primary topic for related album searches. -- Carlobunnie (talk) 04:00, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

- Biria people (currently a redirect to Birri Gubba) → Birri Gubba (move · discuss) – Modern usage, as cited. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 03:28, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
- Draft:Jewface (currently a redirect to Jewface) → Jewface (move · discuss) – move/create over redirect to section; the section text has been copied to the new article text, which has also been expanded upon Kingsif (talk) 02:20, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
- Gekijōban Meiji Tokyo Renka: Yumihari no Serenade → Meiji Tokyo Renka the Movie: Serenade of the Crescent Moon (move · discuss) – The name of the film article should not be in romaji 47.232.204.213 (talk) 22:59, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
- Gekijōban Meiji Tokyo Renka: Hana Kagami no Fantasia → Meiji Tokyo Renka the Movie: Fantasia of the Flower Mirror (move · discuss) – The name of the film article should not be in romaji 47.232.204.213 (talk) 22:59, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
- Stereotypes of East Asians in the United States → Stereotypes of East and Southeast Asians in the United States (currently a redirect back to Stereotypes of East Asians in the United States) (move · discuss) – The article (citations and text) extensively covers both the East and Southeast subregions of Asia as their stereotypes are largely one of the same. "Stereotypes of East and Southeast Asians in the United States" is already a redirect to the article. 114.206.44.90 (talk) 01:03, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
- Object to speedy move the AAPI racism usually also brings in Pacific Islanders, so this could use discussion. Also the reach of "East Asian" depends on definition, some definitions include Southeast Asians -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 03:11, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Requests to revert undiscussed moves
- Burnout (disambiguation) (currently a redirect to Burnout) → Burnout (move · discuss) – There is no primary topic for this word, therefore the move was incorrect and would require discussion ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 04:01, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
- I think most if not all of the items listed in the dab page are named so because of occupational burnout. I think you're right that an RM is needed. Personally, my feeling is it's probably best either leave things as they are now, or possibly move occupational burnout to just burnout (after an RM, of course). Dr. Vogel (talk) 12:17, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
- Burnout (vehicle) is clearly not named after occupational burnout, and is quite common in real-life. Since the move wasn't discussed, it should be reverted per WP:BRD -- 65.92.246.142 (talk) 10:47, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
- Just noting that the move in question was performed in February 2021. -- Vaulter 16:52, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
