3.2.1.3.2.1. (album) – Obscure album. Too many other things, not least the game show 3-2-1, on the dab page for dots ". . ." to be a helpful disambiguator here. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:50, 2 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Clarification: I think the dab page mentioned above is the one at 321 (disambiguation). —BarrelProof (talk) 15:10, 2 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, punctuation alone is not disambiguating where numerous variations contain similar small punctuation differences. bd2412 T 19:55, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose there doesn't appear to be anything else called "3.2.1.". Crouch, Swale (talk) 21:49, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose nothing else that is "3.2.1." or "3.2.1", or that would typically be punctuated with dots. Peter James (talk) 22:01, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The point is that dots isn't sufficient to say "(album)" to the non Zilch fan reader. We actually trying to help readers, in theory. In ictu oculi (talk) 19:29, 8 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Why would a reader search with dots unless their searching for the album? Why add a qualifier and require readers searching to click through a DAB? Crouch, Swale (talk) 20:35, 8 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Most don't say "album" in their title. If you think article titles should describe and not just identify, you can propose a change to Wikipedia:Article titles. Peter James (talk) 17:42, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
