Moving the page

Discussing whether or not this should be moved to "Java Edition 1.14 Pre-Release 1", which is the in-game name for the version (unlike previous pre-releases).

 Oppose No other pre-release pages are named as the proposal suggests. -PancakeIdentity (talk) 23:49, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
The others all follow their in-game names, this one currently doesn’t. Though I also  Oppose because of the inconsistency it’d cause. There’s already redirects for it, so it’s fine as it currently is IMO. FVbico (talk) 23:51, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
I think this needs to be a bigger discussion somewhere about whether or not we rename everything. I'd say no myself, as it's too much hassle for such a small difference. -PancakeIdentity (talk) 23:58, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
 Weak support They've started doing different version IDs (the ID for this version is literally 1.14 Pre-Release 1 including the spaces, while before IDs were 1.13-pre10 and similar (this can be seen in the version manifest). This has already caused a bit of a kerfluffle here and elsewhere (since a lot of things don't like spaces). But Mojang does seem to be doing a new pattern. I don't have a strong opinion on whether we need to follow it, though. (Do note that if it is moved, the protocol version data will need to be updated to use the new name.) --Pokechu22 (talk) 23:54, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
 Oppose per FVbico and PancakeIdentity. -BDJP (t|c) 00:01, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 Support, because why should we persist calling it -pre1 when (correct me if i'm wrong) it's not actually called that anywhere? We have a convention of calling things by their names, I thought. – Sealbudsman talk | contribs 00:12, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 Weak oppose. While it's good to have the official name as the page name, it's both longer and inconsistent with the other pages on this wiki. Just set the infobox to have Pre-release and move on. – Nixinova Nixinova sig1 Nixinova sig2 03:21, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 Weak oppose. Hmmmm 1.9 pre-releases are called 1.9 Pre-Release 1 ingame but editors put as 1.9-pre1 article see Java Edition 1.9-pre1 -Ellaflowercutie (talk) 05:56, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
1.9 pre-releases are all named "1.9-pre#". Maybe you're thinking about Beta? – Nixinova Nixinova sig1 Nixinova sig2 06:05, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 Support per the argument of Sealbudsman. "pre1" can stay as a redirect and old names should not be changed. Robotkoer (talk) 07:11, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
