Requested move 28 December 2023 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: not moved. Users were unconvinced that distinguishing by WP:SMALLDETAILS would be useful here. It was also questioned whether the song would be the PRIMARYTOPIC even if Crazy Stupid Love ceased to be a DAB.

Crazy Stupid Love (song)Crazy Stupid LoveWP:SMALLDETAILS; the two commas in Crazy, Stupid, Love are sufficient to naturally disambiguate the song from the film. Hatnotes may be used to address any potential confusion. Per WP:ONEOTHER, the disambiguation page is also unnecessary and should be deleted. InfiniteNexus (talk) 23:26, 28 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose the film has 123,585 views compared with only 566[[1]] for the Cheryl Cole song. SMALLDETAILS generally works when you have an addition like Airplane! that readers intentionally searching with the "!" could only be looking for the film the reverse generally doesn't work as as its likely many people won't realize the film has commas. See Talk:George Puscas (sports writer)#Requested move 1 December 2019 for another example though in that case English readers are unlikely to use diacritics but here people may well use the commas but I don't think the Cheryl Cole song is primary.

    If a reader looking for the film types "Crazy Stupid Love" and lands on the DAB page, it takes one click to get to the film article; if they land on the article about the song with a hatnote pointing to the film, it also takes one click to get to the film article. So "the film has more pageviews" doesn't really mean anything unless you are advocating for Crazy Stupid Love to redirect to the film article. The proposed move does not make it more difficult to find the film, only easier to find the song. InfiniteNexus (talk) 01:22, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
    If that was the case most DAB page with only 2 or 3 options would have a primary topic but WP:NOPRIMARY says if there isn't a primary topic even if there are just 2 uses (I've added a third) then the term should go to a DAB. The film would probably be a better choice than the song but there may be no primary topic. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:19, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose. If anything, the primary topic would be Crazy, Stupid, Love as a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. It has a clear pageviews lead as indicated above. And see WikiNav, which shows 379 outgoing clicks from the dabpage to the movie versus <10 (no data) for the song. SilverLocust 💬 01:03, 6 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
