== Change the name of the "LM GTE" and "SRO GT4" articles to reflect the naming structure of Sportscar Racing ==

Hello fellow users,

I have been adding as much information as I can to modern Sportscar racing (1994-Present Day) articles here on Misplaced Pages, I am particularly proud of the additions I made to the LM GTE article, adding a lot of pictures and information to the homologated cars table and contributing with information.

I'd like to suggest that we change the naming of the "LM GTE" and "SRO GT4" articles, to "Group GT2" and "Group GT4" respectively as that would make much more sense considering the naming scheme of the "Group GT1" and "Group GT3" articles.

I have tried to performing the moves but I was unable to, I'm unsure on what's going wrong, so I ask for your help

Cheers! ] (]) 20:50, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
:This is not a convention of sports car racing, they are named by their respective ruling bodies and organizers. Group GT4 does not exist, and the ACO owns the rights to LM GTE and never used the name Group GT2. Please add sourced information and sources that are correct instead of conjecture. ] (]) 22:10, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
::I'd take this further and state that "Group GT2", formerly "Group N-GT" was an FIA category. ACO "LM"GT2, formerly "LM"GT, is a similar category that shared many cars with the FIA category but is ''not'' the same regulations. ACO "LM"GT2 evolved into a new set of regulations with "LM"GTE, again it shared many cars but is not the same ruleset. ] (]) 22:27, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
:::I see. Given your information, may I suggest, as in line with the "SRO GT4" and "SRO GT2" articles, the "LM GTE" article be moved to "ACO GTE" ? This would make sense given the name of the of the SRO class articles and to be honest it just seems to make more sense for it to have that name. ] (]) 23:47, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
::::"SRO GT4" is not an official name, someone chose to do that for whatever reason. However "LM GTE" is the official name for the category and changing it to ACO GTE would be a disservice to the article's intent. We don't need the name of the organizer in the article title (as in all the "Group ..." names used by the FIA), but also with such examples as ], ], and ]. ] (]) 18:56, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
