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: this was moved somewhat out of process (before the week was up) by an editor who participated in the discussion below, but the outcome appears clear, so I am closing the request. Dekimasuよ! 04:24, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

They/Them → They/Them (film) – The logic for this title is, I assume, one of WP:DIFFCAPS, but I don't think that applies here. Considering the canonical examples in the policy, ice cube and iron maiden are consistently capitalized as lowercase. There are, however, no consistent capitalization norms for listing one's pronouns. One sees "they/them", "They/them", and "They/Them" alike. Examples of people who describe their pronouns as "They/Them" include Mauree Turner [1], David Morgan (comedian) [2] (in the middle of a normally-capitalized sentence), and Temmie Ovwasa [3] (ditto). LinkedIn's three default sets of pronouns are "She/Her", "He/Him", and "They/Them".

Given that "They/Them" is a reasonably common variant of "they/them" (unlike "Ice Cube" for "ice cube"), this article should be moved to They/Them (film) and the redirect should be retargeted to Singular they as an {{avoided double redirect}} of they/them. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 22:40, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support in this case per the nom's rationale. Given the nature of the title, the clarifier unquestionably helps reduce confusion and ambiguity and is still consistent enough with our criteria to be appropriate. ╠╣uw [talk] 23:03, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support. The title would create too much confusion and really isn't what people are thinking of when they hear or read "They/Them" User:C.monarchist28 [talk] 02:29, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support There are a few instances of this with other films having titles of common phrases/words, so I don’t see a reason why this wouldn’t be aided by being classified with "(film)". TropicAces (talk) 02:41, 8 August 2022 (UTC)tropicAces[reply]
Weak support I agree the slash makes it unlikely DIFFCAPS works well and the generic meaning probably has more long-term significance but not more views (159,742 for the film v 159,742[[4]] for the generic meaning). Crouch, Swale (talk) 08:15, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. They/them can be made into a different article. 𝙷𝚎𝚕𝚕𝚘𝚑𝚎𝚊𝚛𝚝 👋❤️ (𝚃𝚊𝚕𝚔🤔) 01:18, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Move and Redirect They/Them to Singular they. They/Them is a common capitalization, and is more probable than a film. CLYDE FRANKLIN 17:28, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

End of first paragraph should be changed[edit]

it makes it sound like the killer is targeting the teens, but the killer is actually targeting the camp and it’s leaders and only kills one teen who is revealed to have been working with the camp officials 68.12.220.158 (talk) 17:00, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
