The result of the move request was: moved -- JHunterJ (talk) 15:23, 12 October 2019 (UTC)
Food fight (disambiguation) → Food Fight – Per WP:DIFFCAPS, anyone typing "Food Fight" is probably looking for a title of a piece of media. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 00:35, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Support per nom. Station1 (talk) 05:53, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
** Support, but to Food fight, not Food Fight capitalisation. Ex nihil (talk) : Ex nihil (talk) 10:42, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose changed my mind from the above after reading WP:DABNAME. Because there is a page called Food fight that I was not aware of, this page should retain the suffix (disambiguation). Ex nihil (talk) : Ex nihil (talk) 17:35, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Ex nihil: per WP:DIFFCAPS an article and a disambiguation page can exist at terms that only differ by capitalization for example Trauma center and Trauma Center, there was a recent RM at Talk:Union Station#Requested move 14 August 2019 where this confusion came up and explanation at Wikipedia talk:Disambiguation#Application of WP:DIFFCAPS to WP:DABNAME but even if Food fight was primary for "Food Fight" the DAB page should probably be moved to Food Fight (disambiguation) anyway per WP:DABNAME since no other uses use the lower case. Crouch, Swale (talk) 18:38, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Support per the similar discussions such as Total War, Bird Box and Red Meat while we tend to direct to the broader and long-term significant topic, capitalization should be sufficient to preclude the generalized topic from being primary for the upper case. Someone bothering to capitalize the 2nd F is unlikely to be looking for Food fight and even if the are they will still find it on the 1st line. Page views[[1]] show that Food fight gets 663 views but Food Fight (video game) gets 381, Food Fight (TV series) gets 178, Food Fight (game) gets 99 and Food Fight (BBS door) gets 1. The views also show that Food fight (disambiguation) gets 99 views while the "Food Fight" redirect only gets 15. In the mainspace apart from Food fight the DAB is only linked from Foodfight! and Food Wars so this suggests many readers aren't finding what they want although that's not conclusive since people who end up on the Food fight article through other means might just click on it anyway although some who landed incorrectly might search again or give up. Also note that until 2008 Food Fight (video game) was at the upper case base name. Crouch, Swale (talk) 16:39, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Re capitalisation: refer MOS:CAPS, page titles to be sentence case unless a proper name. Hence Food fight. Ex nihil (talk) : Ex nihil (talk) 16:57, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- The DAB should be at Food Fight per WP:DABNAME with Food fight staying where it is. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:03, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Re capitalisation: refer MOS:CAPS, page titles to be sentence case unless a proper name. Hence Food fight. Ex nihil (talk) : Ex nihil (talk) 16:57, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
- Support as proposed. I don't see anyone proposing to change the status of the lowercase Food fight. bd2412 T 03:31, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
