Thanks for the warning. The title of the reference was misleading. It was only "Eskişehir Museum". But in text it was "Eskişehir Eti Archaeology Museum". Consequently I moved to title to Eskişehir Eti Archaeology Museum. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 17:35, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose any move from the current title Eskişehir Eti Archaeology Museum. This is getting complicated, but on what little evidence has been provided, there's no justification for a move. So close this and start a clean RM if anyone has valid a rationale. Andrewa (talk) 09:52, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Eskişehir Archaeological Museum (note Archaeological) never had any more content than Eskişehir Archaeological Museum is an archaeological museum in Eskişehir, Turkey plus a couple of navboxes, categories etc..
The official name in the local language is "Eskişehir Eti Arkeoloji Müzesi". Arkeoloji Müzesi translates as "Archaeology Museum" or "Museum of Archaeology" Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 10:42, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Again, see the article naming policy (or WP:AT for short... as you were urged to do, in several places, before raising or commenting on RMs) and particularly WP:AT#Use commonly recognizable names which reads in part Wikipedia... generally prefers to use the name that is most frequently used to refer to the subject in English-language reliable sources (my link added). So, which sources have you consulted? Google or other search engines can help to find them, in fact the first step (only) is often just to do a search and note the number of ghits. Let's see... Eskişehir Eti Archaeology Museum gives me 5010 (your results may vary) while Eskişehir Archaeological Museum gave only 724. That's a big enough difference to be significant, and in both cases the first few hits look relevant. And many Wikipedians would look no further, we would need at least some evidence to the contrary to choose the second title over the first. But Google booksorGoogle scholar might provide that.
The remaining name of the three above is potentially more complicated. There's more than one museum in Eskişehir (many in fact, even one devoted to comic art I see) so we'd need to ask which if any of them is the primary topicofEskişehir Museum before deciding on that name. But fortunately it seems only a little more popular than the less popular of those two longer names, even if in that sample it sometimes refers to one of the others, which seems likely. So on the evidence so far, there's a clear winner.
