Thirds → Thirds (album) – I think that "Thirds" should be redirected to Third (disambiguation), as "thirds" is the plural form of "third", and multiple entries at the disambiguation page have plural forms. I do not think this album is the primary topic, as thirds are a common standing in academics in the UK, and thirds are most commonly referring to the fractionalization of a whole. With the recent focus on Orson Scott Card, the thirds of Ender's Game are also prominent. Google shows no particular prominence for the album [1] -- 67.70.35.44 (talk) 04:52, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support I am the nominator. -- 67.70.35.44 (talk) 04:53, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Nominators don't add a support comment, FYI. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ≼ 23:29, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

From RM: "After the nomination has been made, nominators may nevertheless add a separate bullet point to support their nomination, but should add "as nominator".... Most nominators, however, simply allow the nomination itself to indicate what their opinion is." Dekimasuよ! 01:15, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support, I agree with the nominator. JIP | Talk 08:59, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support - (James Gang album) evidently not more notable than thirds in math. In ictu oculi (talk) 14:29, 16 November 2014 (UTC) In ictu oculi (talk) 14:29, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support, clear absence of a primary topic for the term. Probably the closest thing would be the fraction, for which there will be no article. bd2412 T 21:06, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support as above. Looking to be a WP:SNOW here. Stickee (talk) 00:33, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. This is a no-brainer. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ≼ 23:29, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
