* {{RMassist/core | 1 = Solex Carburetor | 2 = Solex (manufacturer) | discuss = yes | reason = There is and never was any company named "Solex Carburetor". Just a manufacturer that went by the single-word designation "Solex", which made carburetors and powered bikes. Thus "Solex carburetor" (with a lower case 'c') would not be an appropriate name for the company, or page. And "Solex" by itself already leads to a disambiguation page. Thus, an article on the manufacturer known as "Solex" (which long ago went out of the carburetor business) would be most aptly titled at this point "Solex (manufacturer)" | sig = [[Special:Contributions/2601:196:180:8D80:10EB:C708:F5B5:6C9E|2601:196:180:8D80:10EB:C708:F5B5:6C9E]] ([[User talk:2601:196:180:8D80:10EB:C708:F5B5:6C9E|talk]]) 23:49, 4 January 2023 (UTC) | requester = 2601:196:180:8D80:10EB:C708:F5B5:6C9E}}

* {{RMassist/core | 1 = Apple I | 2 = Apple 1 | discuss = yes | reason = The computer was only ever called "Apple 1" in the original manuals and all other original product literature that I've been able to find. The "Apple I" designation appears to be a later retronym derived from the Apple II after its appearance a couple of years later. The current "Apple I" page and "Apple 1" redirect page need to be swapped. | sig = [[User:Cjs|Cjs]] ([[User talk:Cjs|talk]]) 00:07, 5 January 2023 (UTC) | requester = Cjs}}
