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: No consensus and I don't think relisting will aid in establishing it. Defaults to staying at the stable title. TonyBallioni (talk) 03:58, 2 August 2019 (UTC)Reply


– Per WP:DIFFCAPS, a parenthetical disambiguation is not required for the game. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 13:49, 23 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose - oh hell no. For the same exact reasons I gave in the last 3 RMs this week that if I'm not mistaken where started by you. --Gonnym (talk) 14:23, 23 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Making a bunch of WP:POINTy opposes isn't going to suddenly overrule a widely accepted policy. You are basically stating no reason to disagree besides WP:IDONTLIKEIT.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 17:32, 23 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • I'm actually citing dozens of RMs from the past year that all resulted in WP:DIFFCAPS being overruled. You are the one that seems to have a WP:POINTy attitude, trying to prove some point by initiating some war of attrition with so many RMs at the same time. Would be better if you at least let one end to see if you have community consensus on your side, before continuing spamming RMs for no reason. I hate to quote essays, but really WP:IFITAINTBROKE. --Gonnym (talk) 20:03, 23 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Support second; move Follow the leader to Follow the Leader (disambiguation). WP:DIFFCAPS is highly ambiguous, but the game is the clear primary topic in any case. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:16, 24 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose. This is the first time I've seen it proposed that an article with no references is WP:PTOPIC (the External link is dead). Narky Blert (talk) 11:07, 28 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Support per nom. Of the three uses with lowercase "leader" listed (at the bottom of) the dab page, only this one has its own article, and the other two are based on the game. So the game is clearly the primary topic for the lowercase leader title; that's why the game should be at Follow the leader. As to the first move proposed, every other use listed on the dab page is with Leader capitalized, and so it makes sense for the dab page to have Leader capitalized. For the two others without caps, hatnote links at the top of Follow the leader can send users to the participation dance and the marching band drill sections of the respective articles, as well as to the "... Leader" dab page. --В²C 17:37, 31 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose – oh hell no per Gonnym. Dicklyon (talk) 03:56, 2 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
