Telling Lies (video game) → Telling Lies – WP:TWODABS. Searching for the video game, the song and the term, I think the game is more popular. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 04:18, 30 October 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 06:20, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose no evidence presented that this passes both criteria of Primary Topic. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:01, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

telling lies and Telling Lies (song). In ictu oculi (talk) 09:02, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I did provide evidence: search for "Telling Lies" and see which one you see more of. Also, your other message is malformed. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 10:01, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"Both" criteria means you need to provide evidence for the long term encyclopaedic significance of this video game against all other topics combined, difficult with a small diffs title. And it is a (video game) so current title is helpful to readers. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:40, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Everything on Wikipedia is a (something) and yet, we don't assume that readers are so confused that they will have no clue if something is a video game or not when they go to Frogger or Sonic & Knuckles. As I'm sure you know, there are no absolute rules for determining whether a primary topic exists and what it is, so your point about long-term encyclopedic significance is a nice-to-have for you personally, but not a requirement. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 11:04, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose This game had very little impact , compared to a David Bowie song. Neither is in a clear dominant position to use the undisamb space. Masem (t) 12:59, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Weak oppose: Not just any David Bowie song, but the first-ever direct-to-internet downloadable single released by any major artist. That indicates that the song has clear long-term significance. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 22:15, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
