On 29 December 2024, it was proposed that this article be moved to HESA Shahed 131. The result of the discussion was not moved.

Merge with Shahed 136

The Shahed 136 has a bigger page due to the available published information on it, yet the two drones are extremely similar, especially over the internet. I propose the two pages be merged, turning the 136 page into Shahed Suicide Drones. This will allow provisions for the Arrash to be included as well, which may not have voluminous information available like the 136. Anthropophoca (talk) 02:01, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - Per WP:NAIR, "An aircraft is generally notable if it is verifiably — through reliable sources — a distinct 'type'." I see no reason to merge articles on different aircraft types. Perhaps a list article with links to the individual types would be a good alternative to merging. - ZLEA _T\^C 16:09, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Problem being the 131 is likely to remain a stub page due to scant information arising from military secrecy. Anthropophoca (talk) 22:38, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That's still not a very good reason to merge it with Shahed 136. Shahed 136 is a notable topic with a decently sized article, so merging it into a list does not make much sense. As far as we know, there is no relation between the Shahed 131 and 136 other than basic layout and role, so merging the two wouldn't make much sense from that perspective either. As a wise Wikipedian once said, do not confuse stub status with non-notability. - ZLEA _T\^C 02:01, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 29 December 2024

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: not moved. Consensus to oppose move with limited participation. Opposers stated that the current title is already within the naming conventions. (closed by non-admin page mover) cyberdog958^Talk 11:17, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Shahed 131 → HESA Shahed 131 – Consistency with HESA Shahed 136, due to NCAIRCRAFT requiring the title be of form "Manufacturer Designation Name". As far as I can see, there is no "designation" as such, just the name "Shahed 131". </MarkiPoli> <talk /><cont /> 13:19, 29 December 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

Oppose unless reliable sources are found showing that the aircraft is manufactured by HESA. Shahed Aviation is a producer of drones and if they produce this then the article is correctly named already. Streamline8988 (talk) 21:38, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as above. "Shahed" is developer/manufacturer and "131" is manufacturer's designation. So "Shahed 131" is as valid article name as "Boeing 737". It's not a name like "Witness/shahid 131", as normal multiple-use UAVs and even manned helicopters are produced under same brand. Trasheater Midtier🐉(talk) 14:04, 11 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
