Requested move 6 September 2021 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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: 2562 (musician) moved to 2562. Per the consensus for Station1's proposal. There is no need for a 2562 (disambiguation) page, since the musician is indeed the only topic with the name "2562" covered by Wikipedia (compare 2541).

25622562 (disambiguation) – The page "2562" should redirect to 3rd millennium#26th century. 176.88.28.90 (talk) 12:25, 6 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose pointless for now. The 26th century section is completely empty, why would any reader want that? Nohomersryan (talk) 16:23, 6 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Support move of dab page but then move 2562 (musician) to 2562 as the only article on WP using that WP:precise title. Pageviews clearly show the dab page at 2562 gets nearly triple the views of similar pages, and that almost all of those readers are looking for the musician.

    • The pageviews that the dab page gets are so tiny: not even one per day, so the set of readers who might potentially benefit from the slightly increased convenience is very small. In such a case I'd completely discount usage and judge solely based on long-term significance. – Uanfala (talk) 21:41, 7 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
      • I agree that this is of extremely minor consequence. If nothing changes, it affects next to nothing. I never would have bothered with a RM for something so minor, but since it's here and I happened to check the pageviews, I figure why not make WP a tiny bit better, even if it's only one reader per week saving one click. Long-term significance is irrelevant in this case because we're not comparing two or more topics. There is literally only one topic called 2562 covered on WP. Eventually we'll have something to say about the year and it will become the primary topic, but I suspect that might not happen for several centuries.

  • Support Station1's proposal. I feel the need to add some sort of hatnote, but the best I can come up with is For the year AD 2562, see another encyclopedia. Certes (talk) 00:45, 9 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
