– There are two films with the same name (i.e. this and Baptism of Fire (1952 film)), and there is almost no traffic here. I initially was going to propose moving the dab page to the base title (which I do not oppose as an alternative), but after looking at the traffic of all pages, the novel seems to be overwhelmingly the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. (The WikiNav clickstream for the dab is not cooperating with me.) It is pretty much the only one that gets real traffic. It had a large spike for some reason last year, but after settling, it still consistently gets over 100 hits vice others that maybe get 5 or 7 on a high traffic day. 2pou (talk) 18:52, 12 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Support, this article is clearly not the primary topic, and the article for the novel surpasses all others in average daily pageviews 257 to 3. —El Millo (talk) 23:39, 12 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Support agree the 1943 film isn't primary but perhaps move the DAB to the title case base name like Friendly Fire. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:31, 13 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Support. Also, just to answer why it got the spike in traffic in 2023: the release of the second half of season three of the Netflix series The Witcher, which adapts parts of the novel, released that day. (The spike before that is when the first half of that season dropped.) ~Cheers, Ten Ton Parasol 04:13, 16 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Support first, oppose second there's no primary here given baptism of fire. The Polish fantasy novel Chrzest ognia may have some more hits thanks to a TV tie in but "novel baptism of fire" in Advanced Book Search gets another author. So move Baptism of Fire (disambiguation) to baseline. In ictu oculi (talk) 22:40, 17 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Disambiguate both. Baptism of Fire and Baptism by Fire are ambiguous with Baptism by fire due to being a very famous phrase that is frequently stylised in title case. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 01:12, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Support first, oppose second per In ictu oculi. --wooden superman 15:33, 19 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
