Album
editI removed "Mercury / 2003" from the list of albums as there is an album of that name / year by the band Long-view. I couldn't find any references to an album of the same name by this band. Timb0h 13:17, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: Moved per WP:DAB rules and unanimity below In ictu oculi (talk) 06:46, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
Longview (band) → Longview (American band) – There is a Longview (British band) with 3 times the views ([1] vs. [2]) as this band (probable than some of the views for Longview (band) are readers incorrectly being taken to the article for the American band), so Longview (band) should either be a dab page, or preferably a redirect to the British band per WP:TWODABS seeing as it's arguably the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC.

- Support WP:PRECISE , WP:NCM -- ambiguous disambiguation is a bad idea. Redirect the current name to Longview as {{R from partial disambiguation}} which is a disambiguation page, and does not suffer from 2DAB, since there are many forms of Longview. -- 67.70.32.190 (talk) 04:38, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
- Support WP:PRECISE redirect to Longview. In ictu oculi (talk) 06:39, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
- seriously the next editor should move and close this; User:Zarcadia (band) simply isn't allowed when there are two bands. In ictu oculi (talk) 06:45, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
- User:In ictu oculi, you're absolutely right, I wasn't taking the main Longview dab page into consideration when submitting this move request and there, of course, is no such thing as a primary disambiguated article. Cheers. Zarcadia (talk)
- Well let's do it, cheers. In ictu oculi (talk) 06:46, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
