• 15 Éxitos → 15 Éxitos (Alejandra Guzmán album)
• 15 Éxitos, Vol. 1 → 15 Éxitos Vol. 1 (Los Caminantes album)
• 15 Éxitos, Vol. 2 → 15 Éxitos Vol. 2 (Los Caminantes album)
• 15 Éxitos, Vol. 3 → 15 Éxitos Vol. 3 (Los Caminantes album)

– Perhaps the reason "15 Hits" is the magic number for these compilations is that 15 is about the right length for an album, but in any case "15 Éxitos" is legion in the Latin album business. As can be seen from [http://www.amazon.com/15-Exitos-Sebastian-Joan/dp/B000778B0M/ another cover in the same series at Amazon.com] the Musart / Luna "15 Éxitos" series covers most of the artists in their catalogue. What is different about Los Caminantes is that Musart issued 3 vols. Now, according to a dogmatic interpretation of WP:SONGDAB it is our duty to remove the artist from the title whenever possible, however per WP:AT policy on recognisability "Vol.1" is not recognisable as = "Los Caminantes", so the name of the artist should not be removed. i.e. "15 Éxitos Los Caminantes Vol.1" is not a standalone title like De Guanajuato...Para America! (1986) but is only a subtitle for a compilation where the most recognisable element for readers is the band name, Los Caminantes. 15 Éxitos de Juan Gabriel can be left where it is as the "de" creates a full sentence. After move 15 Éxitos should redirect to the Éxitos dab. In ictu oculi (talk) 02:53, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

• Question. What will happen to 15 Éxitos? Dohn joe (talk) 14:13, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

? Hopefully what will happen is what last line of RM proposal requests will happen. In ictu oculi (talk) 00:35, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

Sorry - I missed the last line there. Usual practice is to propose as part of the RM template itself your proposal for the current title. Dohn joe (talk) 01:02, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

? The last sentence is part of the RM template. Re below, it's just manufacturing work to split off what is already part of the Exitos dab. In ictu oculi (talk) 01:20, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

• Support proposed moves, oppose redirecting "15 Exitos" to Exitos. 15 Exitos (with and without the accent mark) should be a separate dab, with the above titles listed on the page. Dohn joe (talk) 01:02, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

• Support per Dohn joe, but keep the accent mark on the dab. Red Slash 08:22, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
  • Although putting a link in the See also section would be appropriate. Red Slash 08:23, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
• Support. Current titles are not recognisable (WP:AT of course). If current guidelines and policies leave any doubt as to these moves, then the guidelines etc need to change. Andrewa (talk) 00:53, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
