Talk:This Is America (album)

Requested move 15 May 2018[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: moved as requested per the consensus of the discussion below. This follows the specific instruction of WP:SONGDAB/WP:ALBUMDAB; if it is necessary to resolve inconsistency between WP:SONGDAB and WP:INCDAB, I suggest further discussion of the guidelines at their talk pages.

This Is America (Kim Weston album) → This Is America (album) – No other album with this title has a Wikipedia article, so per WP:ALBUMDAB the disambiguator should be (album) and there is no need to disambiguate further. — Amakuru (talk) 22:05, 15 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per WP:INCDAB, which is part of the more broadly-applied WP:Disambiguation guideline vs. a narrow guideline like WP:ALBUMDAB. I believe ALBUMDAB should be updated to adhere to the wider guideline. Note that the disambig page lists the Cool Kids album covered at Ashton Shepherd#Discography, so we should be much more clear and use the additional disambiguation. The impact to readers is next to nothing (they get to the page via search engines, not typing manually), but helps current and future editors by avoiding mislinking and future cleanup. -- Netoholic @ 00:24, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Per WP:ALBUMDAB and the consensus behind the RfC and dozens of subsequent moves, we don't include the artist name unless there's another article on an album of the same name.--Cúchullain ^t/c 14:26, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support per Cuchullain; the target of WP:ALBUMDAB was the result of an RfC. So yes, that option should be supported by default. Steel1943 (talk) 19:52, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support – I made the technical request for this move, and while I can understand why the song moves were reverted, I don't understand why this one was. JE98 (talk) 14:20, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
