Dairy queen → Dairy queen (disambiguation) – The US company (Dairy Queen) is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, despite the caps difference and this page should redirect to it. Page views for the company vastly outnumber all other possibilities combined, including to this dab page. This page was a redirect to the company until 2020, when an anonymous editor performed a cut'n'paste move. That should probably be reverted (histmerge anyone?), but the move wasn't questioned on any basis. I'm questioning it now. Lithopsian (talk) 18:49, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

• Support Move to Dairy Queen (disambiguation) per WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. The restaurant chain is clearly the primary topic here. Rreagan007 (talk) 19:46, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
• Support. It seems clear to me that the restaurant is the primary topic. That's certainly what the pageview statistics indicate. (200 to 1 ratio in favor of Dairy Queen over Dairy Queen (novel)) Pichpich (talk) 20:44, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
• This DAB should probably be at Dairy Queen (disambiguation). There is no "dairy queen" listed on this page, aside from the "modified" slang term which is not mentioned in the linked article. Nohomersryan (talk) 20:55, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

I concur. Rreagan007 (talk) 20:56, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

• Strong support per page views and nom. Esolo5002 (talk) 21:09, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

Support per above. estar8806 (talk) ★ 21:38, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

• Support Dairy Queen (disambiguation)-Per User:Nohomersryan. Schierbecker (talk) 01:11, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
• Support Sorry I had moved it back and forth. I wasn't sure about the policy with caps and redirects. TarkusAB^talk/contrib 02:07, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
• Oppose Per WP:DIFFCAPS. "Dairy queen" in lowercase will always refer to the concept of a Milk Queen, not the company. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 07:56, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
• Support. The restaurant chain seems a solid primary topic for the term, cap or no-cap. ╠╣uw [talk] 16:08, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
• support per diffcaps, which allows for situations where one is just waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more likely to be searched for. No cap. Red Slash 05:37, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
