JCPenney needs to be moved to JCP. The logo suggests that the company is now known as JCP. (Note: people who remember it from before 2012 will always remember it as JCPenney, but this is merely one's memory of the past.) Georgia guy (talk) 14:34, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
- Strong Oppose. The "JCP" in the logo is a mere abbreviation; see File:JCP Frisco.jpg as evidence that the full name is still being used on stores. And this should have been formatted as a multi-move; as it is, Talk:J.C. Penney needs to be notified of this discussion. Powers 15:13, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
- Web site is still jcpenney.com, and you may have noticed a spate of recent news articles on the chain, all of which refer to the company and its stores as "J.C. Penney". Powers 15:15, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
- Comment. The JCP Frisco image you showed uses the 2011 logo. Can you reveal it's a 2012 image as opposed to a 2011 image?? Georgia guy (talk) 15:28, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
- Fair enough, but I'm not the one making a positive claim that the name has changed. Have any stores switched away from using the full name in favor of just "jcp"? Powers 17:58, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
- Have you been to a store since the logo changed?? Georgia guy (talk) 18:01, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
- No. Am I supposed to just take your word for it that all 1,100 stores received and installed new exterior signage in the last month? Powers 18:11, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
- It might take until August according to what one news article reveals, but the new logo is already the official logo.

- Oppose. Here's the most recent press release from their website. It still uses "JCPenney". Dohn joe (talk) 18:13, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose No indication that the company is the primary topic of JCP. --Kusunose 01:10, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
- Comment. That doesn't imply what is meant by the reason for this move. If that argument is used, the article should be at JCP (firm). Georgia guy (talk) 01:22, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
- If you don't think the store is the primary topic for "JCP", why do you want to move the disambiguation page? Powers 02:04, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
