Ovalau (Fiji) → Ovalau – I propose moving this article's title to Ovalau, because Ovalau (Tonga) is also known as Avalau, and the Tongan island appears to be more commonly called Avalau. The small Tongan island doesn't appear to be inhabited, meanwhile the Fijian Ovalau has about 9 thousand people. It seems much more likely to me that someone would mean the Fijian island when searching Ovalau, given the page views statistics (Fijian island - 337 views in June 2023, Tongan island - 9 views in June 2023). toweli (talk) 16:30, 27 July 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi!

• Support per nom. Since so much time has already passed on this RM, I opened a new one at Talk:Ovalau (Tonga)#Requested move 14 August 2023 in order to take care of that move (which seems to be the source of the only opposition here). I'll state it for the record here as well: It appears that the Tongan island really should go to Avalau as the only usage of Ovalau there is in a German source, while others WP:USEENGLISH. All in all, I don't see any reason this proposed move should not occur while the other RM handles the other proposal. The current hatnote should eliminate any ambiguity in the meantime. -2pou (talk) 16:51, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
