Van Van → VanVan – There's currently no actual page at "VanVan", just a redirect. I'd like to move this article there because the majority of reliable sources (NPR, Complex, WFAE, etc.) spell her name "VanVan" as one word, without a space.

- Skeptical. In the list of references in the article, also see a lot of "Van Van". That seems more like ordinary English orthography, and MOS:TM would suggest to lean in that direction. — BarrelProof (talk) 16:20, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

- Yes, you found some good sources that seem to support your proposal. But when I looked at the article, I saw a lot of other sources that differed. We shouldn't just look at the sources you want to look at. That could be WP:CHERRYPICKING. BTW, I don't plan to continue responding this much. — BarrelProof (talk) 21:41, 11 September 2026 (UTC)
