History of the book in Brazil → Books in Brazil – Reason: the current title is English as She Is Spoke. 177.32.61.128 (talk) 23:20, 12 September 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. – robertsky (talk) 00:38, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – how about History of books in Brazil? cookie monster 755 06:58, 14 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I've suggested Books in Brazil because it is the format used by most other country-specific articles in Template:Books, but since the Brazilian article focuses on the history of the printing press, your suggestion is fine too. -- 177.32.61.128 (talk) 12:06, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Current title is perfect English. See The Cambridge History of the Book in Britain. Srnec (talk) 02:21, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the heads-up. This was translated literally from Portuguese, so I assumed it was wrong. If it sounds as natural as History of books in Brazil to native speakers, then you can close this move proposal. 177.32.61.128 (talk) 21:45, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support — The wording in the proposal, i.e. Books in Brazil. Consistency within Wikipedia is better than trying to copy the diction of a British university press. Yue🌙 08:47, 24 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, so that's a British thing. This explains why I wasn't familiar with this structure in English. I'm more used to North American English. -- 177.32.61.128 (talk) 18:01, 25 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support. None of these titles is wrong, but "Books in Brazil" has several advantages: it's more concise, it's consistent with other similar articles (Books in France, Books in Germany, Books in the United Kingdom, Books in the United States), and it more fully defines the scope of the article, which discusses the present as well as the past.
