J.R. Quiñahan → JR Quiñahan – News articles and most references use JR instead of J.R. I csd-ed JR Quiñahan but was declined because MOS:INITIALS suggest periods should be used. However, there is a case that if "An overwhelming majority of reliable sources do otherwise for that person", we can exclude MOS:INITIALS for a page. And J.R. Quiñahan falls onto that exception. So I am requesting again to move it. ^{Babymissfortune} 13:30, 14 October 2016 (UTC)--Relisting. © Tbhotch^™ (en-2.5). 05:12, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 21 December 2016

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: not moved. Per MOS:INITIALS, this requires a period and a space after each letter. Moving to JR, regardless of whether our sources use that, is a violation of our manual of style and should only be done for extreme cases (such as the examples given at MOS:INITIALS). There is no consensus here that this is such a case. (non-admin closure) Brad v 17:34, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

However, there is a case that if "An overwhelming majority of reliable sources do otherwise for that person", we can exclude MOS:INITIALS for a page. And J.R. Quiñahan falls onto that exception. So I am requesting again to move it. (This reason is the one I used in a former RM on this article). An additional reason is to be consistent with other current active Filipino professional basketball players, e.g., LA Tenorio, LA Revilla, JC Intal, RJ Jazul, RR Garcia, JR Buensuceso and JR Cawaling. ^{Babymissfortune} 16:31, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per Joseph Ronald MOS:INITIALS. WP has a MOS that we don't change without overwhelming consistent good reason, which isn't the case here. Looking at some of the others it doesn't appear justified there either, just a stylism in some sports blogs. In ictu oculi (talk) 17:59, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
