Title for Smeller edit

Latest comment: 5 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Comment: I'm thinking Smeller (installation art) would be a better title. -- RoySmith (talk) 20:47, 19 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

There are some difficulties in finding a fitting title for the Smeller article. The esthetic impact of the structure of Smeller is so significant, that it deceives from its actual purpose: the performance of sequences of distinctive scents in motion. A fitting term in the brackets besides Smeller is necessary to distinguish this article from the Smeller (Nose) article. I thought (scent organ) would be fitting, though it still does not differ enough from the Nose. --Alecsodian (talk) 12:42, 20 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Changed the title from Smeller (scent organ) to Smeller (Electronic Scent Projector). --Alecsodian (talk) 16:23, 26 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Due to discrepancy I changed the title from Smeller (Electronic Scent Projector) to Smeller (Scent Performance Technology).--Alecsodian 11:10, 13 March 2019 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alecsodian (talk • contribs)

Requested move 22 March 2019 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 section.

The result of the move request was: Moved to Smeller (installation) per IIO suggestion. There is consensus that it is not primary topic though. The dab page is moved to the base name. — Amakuru (talk) 21:48, 2 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Smeller (technology) → Smeller – Move the article about the art installation to the base name over the redirect, with a hatnote to Nose. A reader looking for "Smeller" in an encyclopedia is more likely to be looking for the work with this actual name rather than the body part/informal slang. If this is done, delete the existing hatnote at Nose and delete (G14) Smeller (disambiguation). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 13:49, 22 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Oppose, and instead move to Smeller (installation). While we're here, is this installation notable? Note the creation of Smeller (disambiguation), but that dab might be better at Smeller. And note also the creation of Osmodrama, which either merge or delete. In ictu oculi (talk) 14:34, 22 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
Weak oppose Per IIO I don't think that we can call the technology the primary topic of "Smeller" but maybe the DAB page could indeed go at the base name. I quick Google search doesn't show the technology but does show Witch smeller. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:39, 22 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

For information, the related article Osmodrama which was refused at AFC and then created is now at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Osmodrama. It may well be that it is notable if other artists can be found but as it stands appears like promotional material for this one artist. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:06, 23 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
