E. R. Ejercito ER Ejercito – - Please move with redirect. Reason for move: unnecessary periods and spacing. HavenHost ( talk) 20:21, 14 January 2013 (UTC) reply

  • Support move to E.R. Ejercito. While in Philippine English, an acronym based on a given name is usually not denoted with spaces and periods (see LA Tenorio), there could be confusion on how it is to be pronounced. However, a name with periods separated by spaces is virtually unheard of. Therefore, a non-spaced period would be appropriate here, so a move to E.R. Ejercito (without the spaces after the first period), as seen on the print source IIO used, would be within the "rules". – H T D 16:22, 17 January 2013 (UTC) reply
