Requested move 11 October 2015[edit]

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. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: not moved. The consensus is that the album is the primary topic. Jenks24 (talk) 06:50, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]



– The album (this month) seems more viewed than the rap song (this month). However, either they just clicked to the song on the hatnote without reading the article, or they read just the intro and then surfed to the song. Also, neither album nor song is more significant than the other, especially by reading the articles, even when the album spawned a few or several singles. By the way, I revived the disambiguation page because I found television episodes using the same name. George Ho (talk) 20:35, 11 October 2015 (UTC) --Relisted.

  • Oppose. A hatnote is sufficient in this case. Calidum 03:08, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Opppose per Calidum. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 06:43, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. This is a WP:TWODABS situation in spirit, in which the album receives thousands more hits than the song. The current status quo seems to be working.--Cúchullain t/c 21:11, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

– Somehow, the stats that I provided in last RM seems different from what the stats supposed to be at that time. Looking at the last 90 days, there is no way that, despite high stat numbers, the album is more popular and more significant than the rap song itself. The album had singles, but the song inspired pop culture to make reference to the song itself. Also, the dabpage has episodes whose title of the same name is based on the song itself. Consensus opposed the proposal in last RM, but I believe consensus can change. George Ho (talk) 08:03, 16 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose per the fact that the song comes from the album, the record can reasonably be considered to have greater significance. Nohomersryan (talk) 13:58, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That's no longer the case, Ryan (if that's your actual name). Like a Virgin, Baby One More Time, Oops!... I Did It Again, and Like a Prayer have both albums and songs of the same name that are equally significant. Even the song may have a lot of significance probably due to its name being satirized in popular culture. --George Ho (talk) 17:41, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. The album gets 60% of the page views. That means that even if every reader looking for the song got there by going to the album first, there are still thousands more that intended the album. Especially considering that is effectively a WP:TWODABS situation, with the song linked in a hat note, moving the dab page to the base name would be of no benefit.--Cúchullain t/c 17:57, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose, per Cúchullain. InsertCleverPhraseHere 06:13, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose, Agreed with Chuchu. A hatnote is sufficient in this circumstance. Feedback 15:42, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
