Incoming links need fixing, or article needs renaming[edit]

Since this used to be a redirect to University of Adelaide (and people commonly still refer to it as Adelaide University), either all of the incoming links need to be fixed (and editors need to remain eternally vigilant), OR we add a qualifier to this article.

Arriving here from the WPDAB notification, with otherwise no knowledge of the specifics of this title. Ideally, updating all the incoming links should have been handled when the title was usurped for the proposed university. That aside, the key question is whether there is a primary topic for this title. If it is the proposed university, then no parenthetical disambiguation is needed.—Bagumba (talk) 11:36, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks - I've just responded to Certes there, and will get back to this in a couple of days. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 13:15, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't done anything about this yet, but thinking about creating the new Adelaide University with a date in parentheses for now, and copying this content over before converting this article back to a redirect, and pushing the decision down the line. The thing is, which year? It was officially created in legislation this year, but won't be operational until at least 2026 (see here), and I suspect that there will be delays. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 07:46, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To shed some light on this. The new university was offically established as of March 2024 with the appointment of the transitional council and the passing of legislation. Some non-transition related operations should begin from 2025 and the transition will be finalised by 2026 for a full opening. SNITZ01 (talk) 03:12, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I posted this link explaining this on the DAB project page - also, note that it's still "subject to legal and regulatory approvals". My issue though is two-fold - firstly, that there are around 150 incoming links to this page intended for University of Adelaide, and secondly that the existing institution is often referred to as Adelaide University, in historical and current sources, and future editing is very likely to keep adding links to this article mistakenly, meant for the current institution. I think we need to rename this one with a descriptor in parentheses, such as (2026) or something like that. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 08:19, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Adelaide University → ? – Please place your rationale for the proposed move here. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 08:22, 1 May 2024 (UTC) Per discussion below - looking for further ideas to get around the problem. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 08:22, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note This post was moved to the botton per WP:BOTTOMPOST, so "below" is now actualy above.—Bagumba (talk) 10:19, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I like the idea of adding a (2026) to this article until either

1- The university is built and functional

2- A delay pushing it it 2027 (or farther) I like Astatine (Talk to me) 15:29, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
