- Move to Dixie Vodka 400. Proposed title fails WP:COMMONNAME. 162 etc. (talk) 16:57, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
- Support - On the contrary to the previous vote, these generic names fail WP:COMMONNAME. We established a basic consensus in the Wikiproject to move towards generic names when there is no enduring common name. Calling it the "Cup Series race at..." better fits the article titling guideline. glman (talk) 19:11, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
- Local consensus does not override Wikipedia policy, especially one as central as WP:COMMONNAME. See WP:CONLEVEL. 162 etc. (talk) 15:22, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not "overriding" policy. I'm saying that the generic brand name that changes every two years is not the WP:COMMONNAME per the guideline. glman (talk) 15:32, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
- WP:COMMONNAME is a policy, not a guideline. It asks us to use "the name that is most commonly used (as determined by its prevalence in a significant majority of independent, reliable, English-language sources.)" Neither yourself or OP have presented any sources that use the name "NASCAR Cup Series race at Homestead-Miami Speedway." A quick Google search will however reveal that "Dixie Vodka 400" is commonly used. [1] [2]
- Should the common name happen to change in the future, a change to the article's title can be discussed at that time. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. 162 etc. (talk) 19:04, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
