- ... that in her song "Bad Idea", Ariana Grande calls herself "Ari-chan" as a reference to her admiration of Japanese culture? ("Ariana Grande's Thank U, Next Has a Host of Samples and Stars Who Helped Make It Happen", "Does Ariana Grande Know Something About NASA That We Don't? An Investigation")

... that critics considered "Bad Idea" by Ariana Grande too similar to "Somebody That I Used to Know" by Gotye and Kimbra?("Critic's Notebook: 'Thank U, Next' Marks the Start of Ariana Grande Fatigue", "Ariana Grande Tells the Cold Truth on Thank U, Next")

Sorry, was just leaving a comment, not starting a review. My bad. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Don't forget to share a Thanks ♥) 17:35, 7 February 2020 (UTC)
GA icon received day before nomination. New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced. Unable to check for close paraphrasing as Earwig's is down. The first hook is very hooky; hook fact verified and cited inline. I struck ALT1 because it is more niche (I've never even heard of these singers or song). QPQ done. Images are freely licensed. ALT0 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 22:35, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

Bad Idea (song) → Bad Idea – I want to move "Bad Idea (song)" to the title of "Bad Idea", but am unable to due to "Bad Idea" existing Dylx (talk) 16:51, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

- Bad Idea is already a redirect to a magazine. Why is the song the primary topic? --Jack Frost (talk) 17:57, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
- Yep, this would need an RM, though I'd personally move Bad Idea (disambiguation) over the (created today) redirect. Spike 'em (talk) 18:00, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
- My argument for the song being the primary topic is their pageviews, for one. This shows that there is generally much higher interest in the song than the magazine. -- dylx 19:02, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

- The song is arguably primary with 671 views compared with 121[[1]] for the magazine (which includes views for the base name) but the DAB at the base name may be best to avoid a PT swap. Crouch, Swale (talk) 06:54, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
- Move Bad Idea (disambiguation) to Bad Idea. No real primary topic. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:16, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose, and support User:Necrothesp's suggestion. 162 etc. (talk) 05:04, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
