Requested move 29 February 2016[edit]

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: All pages moved. I (the nominator) have closed this myself as there has been unanimous support and I have adopted the lowercase "at" preferred by everyone. There are other articles not subject to this discussion because they did not have the (House of Councillors) in their name. They will be moved to the lowercase "at" also.

– Each of these district names refer to a prefecture in Japan. For most prefectures, an "At-large district" existed for the House of Representatives (Japan's "Lower House") election of 1946. Gunma At-large district (House of Representatives) is the only one which has an article and the rest are redlinks.
After the election, there was a reform of the electoral system and since then, each of the 47 prefectures has had an "At-Large district" for the House of Councillors (upper house), while most of the House of Reps at-large districts were carved up into smaller districts. Per WP:TWODABS and WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, I believe that the (House of Councillors) disambiguation following each name is unnecessary. The current (HC) articles are the primary topic and links to the old districts can be achieved with hatnotes. There are two other articles where the House of Reps district continued to exist until 1994. I will create a separate discussion for that at Tokushima At-large district (House of Councillors).

Go for it. Sometimes the RM process just stalls. Dicklyon (talk) 06:02, 13 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
