The result of the proposal was Move. Regarding the disambiguator, it seems that the Wrocław one is the most important object of this name, so (Wrocław) doesn't seem called for (ergo, the dab page will be moved first). Duja► 10:41, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

*Support It should be in English on the English wikipedia. If anything maybe it should be moved to just Centennial Hall rather than Centennial Hall in Wroclaw? Just like the Eiffel Tower and the Big Ben are simply called by their name in the articles I don't think the name of the city is neeeded. JRWalko 16:58, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Unless one can demonstrate that there is another Centennial Hall on the UNESCO World Heritage Site list, isn't adding it's location in the title a bit of overkill? The Eiffel Tower in Paris? Big Ben in London? The article itself explains its location. Dr. Dan 13:45, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

text: Well, I thought about Centennial Hall initially, but then I've noticed that the name is already taken, as there are several other, maybe less prominent, Centennial Halls in the US. I'm not sure if there are Eiffel Towers there, too ;-) --Lysytalk 19:33, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Are you trying to say you are not aware of the existence of the Eiffel Tower in Poland? I think the Gliwice Radio Tower is obviously prettier than its French counterpart. On a serious note though I wasn't aware of the other Centennial Halls. Maybe Centennial Hall (Wroclaw)  or in fact the original proposal. Either is fine IMO.
Since nobody else voted yet and both Dr. Dan and JRWalko expressed their support for Centennial Hall, I'm going to cancel your votes, and rephrase the original move request. I hope none of you will mind that. --Lysytalk 04:56, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Hello, I don't know whether this is the right place for my comment, but this is the first time I contribute. My comment has to do with the contentnion that it was the Polish communist authorities who first called the Centennial Hall the People's Hall. I read somewhere that the name of 'Volk Halle' (spelling? I am not German) had been given to the structure in Hitler's time and that the new Polish authorities merely translated it after the war. After all, they were as 'socialist' as were the National-Socialists. Thx.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.31.67.100 (talk) 13:48, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

text: *I support a move to Centennial Hall (Wrocław), as this appears to be the common name in English language sources, but weakly oppose a move back to just Centennial Hall, as based on usage there does not seem to be a clear primary topic (this one probably has the slight edge, but not overwhelmingly). As noted above, however, the move I oppose is the stable situation that represents the previous consensus.--Yaksar (let's chat) 19:40, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
