Requested move 9 February 2015 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The result of the move request was: Withdrawn. The dab page has been updated to include more topics, and the nominator has no objection to the suggestion for a snow close in view of the new situation. (non-admin closure)BarrelProof (talk) 02:23, 10 February 2015 (UTC)Reply



Diamond Days (The Outfield album)Diamond Days – This article is about an album which is significantly more prominent than the other album on the new disambiguation page. The Outfield's album charted nationally, while Out of the Grey's album charted only on a genre chart. I therefore request that the disambiguation page be deleted and the other album be placed in a hatnote on this one (i.e., the previous state before the creation of the disambiguation page).

  • Oppose It has a single reference. Its contents are entirely speculative. Until it is improved it should not be moved at all. It's not clear that this article is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. It was viewed 405 times in December 2014, while the other was viewed 99 times, but as a DAB title, it's not clear how many readers arrived here looking for the other. Leave it until end of March, 2015 and look at the stats to that point. I'll gladly make this the primary topic if its views increase in March. Walter Görlitz (talk) 01:02, 9 February 2015 (UTC)Reply
    • I've added references to address that particular issue. As for the views issue, it's not clear how many readers arrived at either page seeking the other, since up until a few days ago one was at Diamond Days and the other was at Diamond Days (album), and there was no hatnote on the former until I placed one there at the same time I moved the latter page. Thus, since both are albums, one could have arrived at either page in search of the other. -Dewelar (talk) 02:19, 9 February 2015 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose the dab was incomplete, among the various albums and songs the Mary Black is probably the only one truly notable. In ictu oculi (talk) 05:00, 9 February 2015 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose and suggest snow close – after being updated, there are now ten topics on the dab page, and The Outfield album does not seem dominant over all the others. —BarrelProof (talk) 11:22, 9 February 2015 (UTC)Reply
