Request.

Could someone please rename the title into Detective Conan? That's the original title of the series. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.245.229.121 (talk) 14:47, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

 Not done. See Talk:Case Closed/Archive 3 AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:26, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
Note for the user: It is true the Singapore-published volumes (released in the following English-speaking territories: Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, and Brunei, and also in Indonesia and Thailand) use Detective Conan but the userbase for now prefers to use Case Closed which is used in the US, UK, Canada, and Ireland by Viz (I'm not sure if it is officially licensed in Australia and NZ). I did say that I would propose a move request if an official English release in India uses/used Detective Conan but this hasn't happened so far. WhisperToMe (talk) 19:35, 14 September 2019 (UTC)

First volume cover as profile picture and change the title into "Detective Conan"

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.

Could someone please change the profile picture into the very first volume cover and change the title into "Detective Conan"? It has to be the very first volume cover for a spoilers and common sense topic. And it has to be also "Detective Conan" and not "Case Closed" because that's the original title of the series regardless what the English version chose. PLEASE.

There are also no spoilers on covers and the existing cover does a sufficient job at identifying the subject of the article. You did not provide a reason why a different cover would better identify the subject. Also, the work is known as Case Closed in the English language and is thus the common English name. —Farix (t | c) 20:40, 2 May 2019 (UTC)

Requested move 18 May 2019

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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Closed as a disruptive request by block-evading IP. Favonian (talk) 09:52, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

– The Japanese manga and anime series 名探偵コナン is known as Detective Conan around the world because all covers of 名探偵コナン 's manga volumes, anime episodes, films and OVAs made by Shogakukan call 名探偵コナン as Detective Conan. In addition, when English Misplaced Pages names the seventh to twenty-third films for 名探偵コナン, Detective Conan is at the beginning of these films' titles (For Japanese version of the 23 films for 名探偵コナン, 名探偵コナン is at the beginning of all these films' titles). In conclusion, 名探偵コナン is reflected as Detective Conan. However, when English Misplaced Pages names the most parts of the related articles for 名探偵コナン, 名探偵コナン is still named as Case Closed, which is opposite from the reality and make more confusion and chaos. In order to reflect the reality and avoid the confusion and chaos, it is necessary to replace Case Closed with Detective Conan in the titles of the related articles for 名探偵コナン, as this requested move listed. ~~68.183.187.226 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.183.187.226 (talk) 15:13, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

@AngusWOOF: But the reality is the official publisher Shogakukan calls 名探偵コナン as Detective Conan, and known around the world. ~~68.183.187.226 18:33, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
  • Redirect Just redirect all red links. Sincerely, Masum Reza 19:41, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
  • Comment: This is likely the same person who's already been blocked for sockpuppetry in related matters. O.N.R.  19:48, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
  • Oppose per previous discussions and WP:COMMONNAME as it is used by reliable English-language sources. Both the manga and anime are officially licensed and released as Case Closed despite what a small group of dedicated fans prefer. —Farix (t | c) 20:30, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
  • Oppose nothing has changed since the last discussion. The anime is still referred to as Case Closed on Netflix (and these are subbed Japanese episodes they never never dubbed), also, the English manga, as mentioned, is still being released under the name case closed. The all around the world argument is also irrelevant here since this is the English language Misplaced Pages meaning we base the title on what it’s referred to in reliable English language sources and no evidence has been provided to indicate that Detective Conan has overtaken Case Closed in that regard.--64.229.166.98 (talk) 21:32, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
  • Yet another RM on same subject by same blocked Sock https://en.wikipedia.org/Special:Contributions/68.183.187.226 In ictu oculi (talk) 06:46, 19 May 2019 (UTC)
The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
Note to readers: The userbase is aware of the existence of the SE Asia version, but continues to use Case Closed as that is used in the US, Canada, UK, and Ireland (as per Viz). I did say that I would propose a move request if an official English release in India uses/used Detective Conan but this hasn't happened so far. WhisperToMe (talk) 19:37, 14 September 2019 (UTC)
This shouldn't be affected by any new Indian English versions generated as it's been under the Viz Media one for much longer than that. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 01:29, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
Its possible time and duration of each release could be a factor, bit I still think the issue should be revisited if India gets the original names in an English version as the number of L2 English speakers is about 200 million or so (out of over 1 billion). If there are official broadcasts or printings in Pakistan, Bangladesh, etc that would up the number. There are other factors such as how many RSes use each, how many after the English sub releases use what, etc WhisperToMe (talk) 13:52, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
