– I find the variations of whether a comma is present between the words, or whether a question mark is at the end of the question, to be insufficient to distinguish these very similar titles. I propose to move them all to disambiguated titles, move the disambiguation to what I would think to be the most grammatically common form, and redirect the other titles to the disambiguation page.

Support per nomination. In this case, dependance on WP:SMALLDIFFS to distinguish these titles is confusing, rather than helpful. As for the two-sentence stub delineating the 1931 British quota quickie, Number, Please, it most certainly has no standing as a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. If consensus skews towards eliminating the comma within the base name, I would also support such a variation. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 05:36, 24 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
Support per above. -- Netoholic @ 06:11, 24 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
Comment The films should be disambig'd by the year of release. So Number, Please (1931 film) for the British film and Number, Please? (1920 film) for the American one. The country redirects would be useful too. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 07:02, 24 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
- Support this suggestion.--Ortizesp (talk) 14:38, 24 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
  - I have no great preference, but I think anyone distinctly looking for one film or the other would be more likely to know whether they were looking for an American or a British film than whether they were looking for a 1920 film or a 1931 film. BD2412 T 16:32, 24 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

That's how films are dismabig'd per WP:NCF. If you'd like to change that, then please start a discussion with the Film Project. As I say, the redirects for countries can be made too. Thanks. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 08:06, 25 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
