The result of the move request was: consensus to move. —usernamekiran (talk) 12:41, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
Group of Seven → G7 – G7 is the WP:COMMONNAME of the subject. Per MOS:ACROTITLE, "Acronyms should be used in a page name if the subject is known primarily by its abbreviation and that abbreviation is primarily associated with the subject". This is the case here. PhotographyEdits (talk) 10:47, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
- Support. Seems to be uncontroversial. Maybe put it up at WP:RM/T instead? Regards SoWhy 14:06, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
- Support per nom.--Ortizesp (talk) 17:21, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
- Support clearly common name. 103.240.204.158 (talk) 03:55, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
- support clearly common name—blindlynx 13:31, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
- oppose What about the fact that there are a number of other G7's? We have a disambiguation page. So, shouldn't it be something like G7(international organization) or something, rather than G7 alone? Which G7 gets priority choice of G7 alone when there are numerous G7s? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G7_(disambiguation) Centerone (talk) 23:59, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
- There can be many but they require further clarification, unlike this one. 103.240.204.158 (talk) 02:39, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- Because of WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Regards SoWhy 14:43, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- the G7 redirect and this page get the overwhelming majority of traffic for 'g7' related articles [1]—blindlynx 15:28, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- Comment as OP. This should have probably gone through WP:RM/T, I incorrectly believed this might be controversial. Maybe someone can do a WP:SNOW close. PhotographyEdits (talk) 12:27, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- Not anymore since there is 1 oppose. This should be now closed by an uninvolved editor but not before 10 August. 103.240.204.158 (talk) 13:45, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- Support - This is the common name, and since G7 already redirects here, there's already a consensus that this is clearly the primary topic. MarginalCost (talk) 22:54, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

Merger with G8 article
[edit]I have checked discussions in this and the G8 article, and I am unable to find the promised discussion on why or how it was decided not to merge them.
"G7" and "G8" do NOT refer to separate entities, they refer to a particular annual international forum, and there is no evidence that there ever were simultaneous, competing, G7 and G8 meetings. Allowing separate articles leads to confusion, and there is even a false and unsubstantiated claim that "they are two different entities" in the discussions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:G8#Dealing_with_duplicate_contents_with_G7
I re-suggest the two articles be merged. This is not impossible, as the French Wiki has already done so https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groupe_des_sept_(%C3%A9conomie) . I believe that "G7" would be the best name for a merged article, but the final chosen name is not very important, since Wikipedia can easily redirect the user. Agihard (talk) 14:42, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
- Agreed; however, the discussion pages on the G7, G8, and G8+5 talk pages keep opening and closing at random times (which is only another reason as to why the pages should be merged). If we're able to find a solution for this, I'm sure we'll be able to merge the pages faster. - MateoFrayo (talk) 21:42, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
- Due to the general consensus being reached that the pages should be merged, I'll be working on merging all three pages now. - MateoFrayo (talk) 22:37, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
