Planning move to Freedom From Fear: The American People in Depression and War, 1929–1945[edit]
Per WP:SUBTITLE, When the most commonly used name is ambiguous, the full title and subtitle might be suitable to be used as a form of natural disambiguation
; and Orlando: A Biography, not Orlando (novel), nor Orlando (book)
.
Currently, Freedom From Fear: The American People in Depression and War, 1929–1945 is a redirect to the somewhat awkward disambiguation Freedom from Fear (Kennedy book). I've posted here before making the move. I think this reasoning is sound and policy-based. Hydrangeans (she/her | talk | edits) 07:23, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
Requested move 23 March 2024[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 discussion.
The result of the move request was: moved. Consensus that the subtitle would be more a WP:NATURAL form of disambiguation than the current parenthetical. (closed by non-admin page mover) ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 18:31, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

- Would support Freedom from Fear (Kennedy book) → Freedom from Fear: The American People in Depression and War, 1929–1945 (per MOS:CT, "from" is lowercase). As a comparison, the recent nomination at Talk:The Sleepwalkers: A History of Man's Changing Vision of the Universe#Requested move 5 March 2024 was unopposed in proposed addition of two book subtitles. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 01:19, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Whoops! Capitalizing from the way I did was a pretty goofy mistake on my part. I've edited the move request to adhere to MOS:CT. Thanks for the link to the comparison; that's a really good example of a parallel situation. Hydrangeans (she/her | talk | edits) 01:56, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
Publication date[edit]
According to OUP, this was published on May 6, not May 1. Amazon agrees. Jmj713 (talk) 20:44, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
- I've hedged the date as given in the article to May 1999 (including both possibilities). I admit I'm in general inclined to favor summarizing secondary sources as the most verifiable form of information. Hydrangeans (she/her | talk | edits) 21:02, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
