Requested move 10 November 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: Moved. Editors attained a rough consensus that this TV series is not the primary topic for the term "Loss of Innocence" and that this article should be thusly moved. There was some discussion as to what to do with the leftover redirect. A dab was mentioned as being a potential solution, and that can be either WP:BOLDly solved by participants/other editors or hashed out at RfD going forward.

Loss of InnocenceLoss of Innocence (TV series) – No evidence this stub is the primary topic over the other entries in a hatnote almost as long as the article itself. * Pppery * it has begun... 22:26, 10 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

  • Support per nomination. Also support creation of a Loss of Innocence disambiguation page listing the one-sentence stub delineating this TV series, along with the 1961 film, the 1996 film as well as Innocence#Loss of innocence. —Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 02:16, 11 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • Comment. Seems really unnecessary. This stub is averaging only one hit per day, and if any of those few readers really want anything else, the hatnote is already doing everything a dab page would do for them. It would make more sense to turn loss of innocence (lower case), which currently redirects here, back into a dab page. Station1 (talk) 18:38, 11 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • Support the TV series has 24 views, A Loss of Innocence has 198, The Greengage Summer has 630 and the generic meaning has 2,124[[1]]. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:08, 11 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose unnecessary move per Station1; support turning loss of innocence back into a dab page instead. Happily888 (talk) 05:49, 13 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
    Why is the move unnecessary? Per the views I cited it doesn't look like there is a primary topic, the fact this one only gets 24 views while A Loss of Innocence gets 198 suggests alone there likely isn't as its common for articles to be interchangeable.

    The point is that users aren't incorrectly navigating to this article when they're searching for A Loss of Innocence or The Greengage Summer, the readers of the other targets don't necessarily use this spelling/punctuation as a likely variation, making this page, with its capitalization, despite being a stub the primary topic and fine to stay where it is.
