The result of the move request was: Moved to Statue of Atatürk (Sheridan Circle) and Statue of Atatürk (Turkish Embassy, Washington), as most CONCISE of the suggested titles, with disambiguators suggested by Ed Johnston and agreed upon in principle by others.  — Amakuru (talk) 00:05, 25 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]



WP:VAMOS has been updated and now says: "For portrait sculptures of individuals in public places the forms "Statue of Fred Foo" "Equestrian statue of Fred Foo" or "Bust of Fred Foo" is recommended, unless a form such as "Fred Foo Memorial" or "Monument to Fred Foo" is the WP:COMMONNAME. If further disambiguation is needed, because there is more than one sculpture of the same person with an article, then disambiguation by location rather than the sculptor is usually better." In this case, disambiguating by location is difficult because both statues are installed in Embassy Row, Washington, D.C. See related discussion here. I agree with User:Ham II's suggestion except I've used the title of the subject's name per the parent article: Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. --Another Believer (Talk) 22:38, 28 March 2020 (UTC) Relisting. Steel1943 (talk) 03:06, 10 April 2020 (UTC) Relisting. buidhe 04:25, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
