"Summer Babe" or "Summer Babe (Winter Version)"?[edit]

While both essentially refer to the same song (just different versions of it), is it more suitable to rename the page to "Summer Babe", as is the name of the single released on Drag City and the more chronologically correct version, or should it remain as the more commonly well-known "Summer Babe (Winter Version)" from the Slanted and Enchanted album?

It was proposed in this section that Summer Babe (Winter Version) be renamed and moved to Summer Babe.

result:
Procedural close. Technical request has been granted to move Summer Babe (Winter Version) to Summer Babe. Editors should keep in mind that while the target article is indeed about the song "Summer Babe", the later version called "Summer Babe (Winter version)" is a different version of the targeted song title. Kudos to editors for your input, and Happy, Healthy Publishing! (nac by page mover) P.I. Ellsworth ed. ^put'r there 17:46, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Summer Babe → Summer Babe – When refering to the song itself, ideally the page name should align with the released single, or in this instance, the first released version of the song. Numerous music databases uses the "Summer Babe" variant to denote differences between the single and album versions, such as on Discog (https://www.discogs.com/Pavement-Summer-Babe/master/1196858), MusicBrainz (https://musicbrainz.org/release/0d74774b-4667-40ba-959a-580291ecf3bb), and on the Drag City Records site (https://www.dragcity.com/products/summer-babe).

Support Summer Babe (Winter Version) → Summer Babe. Sole such Wikipedia main title header, with Summer Babe redirecting to Summer Babe (Winter Version). Uncontroversial technical request. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 07:58, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
