European University of Madrid β European University β The European University of Madrid has expanded with campuses in other parts of Spain and now uses the branding "Universidad Europea" or "European University". Folkezoft (talk) 17:05, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose It's a common name for universities in Europe and there's a disambiguation page for that very reason. Killuminator (talk) 17:27, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- I think you make a good point, but I don't think the page should stay as the European University of Madrid as most sources don't use that name. Would Universidad Europea be a better alternative? Folkezoft (talk) 17:53, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose, it appears the university itself uses "Universidad Europea" in English, so at minimum the proposed name isn't recognised merely an apparent generated translation and needs to proven to be used, let alone common. The few English sources in the article appear to use the current article name or the Spanish name, not the proposed. Neutral on whether "Universidad Europea" or "European University of Madrid" should be used as no WP:COMMONNAME argument, however I would note the current name appears to now be old, so comes under WP:NAMECHANGES if proven.
- The redirect of European University to EU Business School probably should be reviewed too, as this article at least used to start with the term, so potential dab as it actually isn't one right now. DankJae 21:05, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, that should, at the very least, be redirecting to European University (disambiguation) as it seems very unlikely that EU Business School is the primary topic. Robminchin (talk) 14:04, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Ah there's the dab page, the destination didn't even have a hatnote. Yes that dab should just be "European University". DankJae 20:53, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

- Oppose This would require disambiguation, while the name "European University of Madrid" provides natural disambiguation. I'm not thrilled about Universidad Europea unless it's demonstrated to be well established as the name in English. Robminchin (talk) 14:02, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose per above; however I support moving the DAB page European University (disambiguation) to European University. Uncertain about a move to Universidad Europea for this article. Walsh90210 (talk) 19:39, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
