Balloon Dog → Balloon Dog (sculpture) – This page should be disambiguated from Balloon animal, a more well-known usage of the name. Thanks,Neuropol^Talk 13:45, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Slight Oppose, although the sculpture itself derives from the concept of balloon animals (in this case a dog, but could have been any of the other popular forms) it is a major and well-known artwork series and receives many more views per day than Balloon modelling. "Balloon dog", lowercase, now redirects to the modelling article. Randy Kryn (talk) 14:16, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There's no current method in place of disambiguation between the balloon modeling (a more niche and technically-named page) and Balloon Dog page. It may be worth considering that these users visiting this page more are finding the incorrect page, and simply do not care enough, or are unable to find, the page they are looking for. Thanks,Neuropol^Talk 14:32, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Good point, there should at least be a hatnote on this page directing readers to Balloon modelling. Randy Kryn (talk) 14:42, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose WP:DIFFCAPS applies in this case. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 14:39, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose there isn't even an article at the lower case so like WP:PLURALPT its more likely an article can establish a primary topic but I'd be fine with a DAB here. Crouch, Swale (talk) 16:47, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per WP:DIFFCAPS. A hatnote should be fine. 162 etc. (talk) 23:41, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Futile support on the argument, even though technically a balloon animal is in and of itself, just a real impermanent sculpture. Hyperbolick (talk) 04:48, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support Per Hyperbolick.
Support per nom. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:37, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't feel strongly either way, but I'm not sure the disambiguation is required if there's not another article called "Ballon Dog". ---Another Believer _(Talk) 15:59, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
