On 2 April 2022, it was proposed that this article be moved to Artifact (fantasy). The result of the discussion was not moved.

I still think this needs to be a disambiguation[edit]

"Magic item" is a very vague phrase which has too many meanings, none of which have an authoritativeness about them that would seem to me to lead to this article being a disambiguation.

Also, as currently written, this article overlaps Artifact (fantasy). -Harmil 15:16, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the move request was: not moved. (non-admin closure) NW1223 <Howl at me•My hunts> 00:39, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Magic item → Artifact (fantasy) – The term "magic item" seems to be more D&D-terminology than use in other sources. In addition, this article seems to be more about the "artifact" concept, which could even refer to mythological items of the such ... which are usually called artifacts. So, I suppose this move request is per WP:COMMONNAME. (Note: I am suggesting "Artifact (fantasy)" since it already a redirect towards this page which also has content merged here; there may be a different disambiguator or a more WP:NATURAL title is suggested ~~[that includes the word "artifact"]~~ that may be more sufficient/plausible that my suggested title.)

I have struck out part of my nomination statement to make it clear I've changed my stance on the necessity for the title to include "artifact". Steel1943 (talk) 06:47, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Well this is a blast from the past. However, I am opposing the move, as artifact (fantasy), when merged by me back in 2009, did not have any sourcing showing that "artifact" was the common name of such things. May I suggest Magic object or Magical object instead, as it could become the primary article of Category:Magical objects. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 06:03, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I suppose if this move request doesn't occur, the category should be moved to Category:Magic items for naming consistency (WP:C2D). Steel1943 (talk) 16:59, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Clear common name. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:58, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
