Trump tariffs → Tariffs in the Trump administrationTariffs in the Trump administration – More complete term for DAB Zinderboff (talk) 16:45, 1 August 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. Cremastra (talk · contribs) 17:02, 8 August 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. TarnishedPath^talk 05:11, 16 August 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. TarnishedPath^talk 10:56, 23 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

• Support [also Tariffs under the Trump administration per below], I can see that there was a move attempt which was reverted in April, however I see no issue titling the article as proposed, which does seem more complete and appropriate. Doing so would then make it consistent with the naming of the two articles currently already present on the DAB. Bungle ^{(talk • contribs)} 10:01, 3 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
• "Tariffs in the ... administration" just doesn't sound right to me. Oppose. Srnec (talk) 00:51, 5 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

  More-so keeping consistency with how the linked articles are already styled (as they aren't Trump's first tariffs or Trump's second tariffs, respectively). Are you able to offer anything more than WP:IJUSTDONTLIKEIT? Bungle ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:17, 6 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

  My position is not that I don't like it but that it is not good English. "Tariffs" are not a thing that can be "in" an "administration". A title like "Tariffs under the Trump administration" makes far more sense. Srnec (talk) 01:31, 7 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

  @Srnec: Thanks for clarifying, that makes more sense as an opposition rationale with an alternate suggestion offered. I support the idea of keeping the titles named consistency and have no issue supporting your proposed amendment, perhaps extending to the two articles linked on the DAB too.

• Comment: Wikipedia has multiple articles using each of "in the", "under the", and "during the" Trump administration(s). I'm not sure if this is a WP:CONSISTENT issue or whether these have legitimately different meanings, such as the extent to which each is driven by federal policy or influenced by Trump.

  Likely a consistency issue that should be fixed with a mass RM. Metallurgist (talk) 19:47, 30 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

• Oppose longer for no added clarity. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 21:33, 18 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
• Support. A more formal tone is better, and both articles on the dab page use "Tariffs in ...". —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 18:37, 30 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
• Support The current title is unprofessional. The dabbed pages use the longer name. And this would be consistent with similar topics. I support during as well, but I think that should be saved for a later mass RM of all the "in" and "under" articles. Metallurgist (talk) 19:49, 30 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
