Requested move 30 December 2017[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. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: not moved. Opposers' use of the community consensus at WP:INCDAB seems to far outweigh that of supporters' WP:SONGDAB while the Jennings song article is on Wikipedia. Happy New Year to All!

Let's Stay Together (Al Green song) → Let's Stay Together (song) – Only one other song with an article, which was a minor hit. I'd almost argue that this is the primary topic without any disambiguation. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars^{Talk to me} 02:43, 30 December 2017 (UTC) --Relisting. Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ _Talk 02:20, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per WP:INCDAB. (song) will always be incomplete disambiguation, and we don't apply "primary topic" principles to disambiguated titles. -- Netoholic @ 06:41, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Strong oppose per WP:INCDAB and Let's Stay Together (Lyfe Jennings song). This would be a precedent to pick "primary (song)" primary (footballer), primary (FOO) across the whole article corpus. In ictu oculi (talk) 10:08, 30 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I thought there was some precedent that this was acceptable now. I seem to recall you losing some of these "primary (song)" arguments in recent months. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars^{Talk to me} 01:42, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars: Not as far as I'm aware, not when there's another standalone article. The issue of debate is when there is content mentioned in a standalone article. In those RMs most have gone the way of saying unless a song has a standalone article it shouldn't be counted. But that isn't the case here. In ictu oculi (talk) 13:41, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support – Being as the one who "set this in motion", so to speak, I redirected the Lyfe Jennings song back to the album it was from after seeing it was a relatively short article. As this song was covered by numerous other artists, I support this revert. JE98 (talk) 01:43, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Feminist: @Aervanath: I've undone JE98. We can't just zap another article to push through a RM like that. In ictu oculi (talk) 13:41, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support per WP:SONGDAB. This is the only article about a song named "Let's Stay Together". feminist (talk) 03:46, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support as per WP:SONGDAB: "unless more than one article about songs of the same name exist, there is no need to disambiguate any further."--Aervanath (talk) 19:18, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose – moving from precise toward incomplete disambig is a step backwards. Dicklyon (talk) 02:21, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
