:: Oops... well I moved it, as you can see, but I realize, especially because of what they call it on [www.oracle.com], that the official name is '''Oracle Database''', with a capital '''D'''. (I swear I've hit the nail squarely this time!) And now I can't move it to that because the redirect page has a history. Requesting assistance! In the mean time, we/I can still clean up the article.
:: The amusing part is that a great majority of other articles link to [[Oracle RDBMS]] rather than the other two. I have concluded that the official name is simply '''Oracle Database''', while it can also be referred to as the "Oracle RDBMS" or "Oracle database system" or some variation, as long as you use the word '''[[the]]''', referring to the system in this way as a noun, and not a name. --[[User:DJPhazer|DJ Phazer]] 19:51, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
::: Heh. Well, per [[WP:NAME]], if it's most commonly referred to as "Oracle RDBMS" then that's where it goes. I work for a company who [[Sun Microsystems|rename all their products every twelve months]], so I feel the pain. The important thing is the the article definitively refers to the ''product'' and not random ''instances'' of the product or various other concepts. (For what it's worth, if a redirect is getting in the way of a page move and it's not contested you can replace the offending redirect page with '''<nowiki>{{db-move}}</nowiki>''' and an admin will come along and delete it to make way for the move. Just for future reference.) [[User:Thumperward|Chris Cunningham]] 10:02, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
