- This is a contested technical request (permalink). Hhkohh (talk) 03:13, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose Seems like a common name Hhkohh (talk) 03:13, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
- @Hhkohh: How do you reconcile your position with our book-specific guideline, WP:SUBTITLE, which states:
Usually, a Wikipedia article on a book (or other medium, such as a movie, TV special or video game) does not include its subtitle in the Wikipedia page name, per WP:CONCISE. The only exception to that is short article titles, for disambiguation purposes.

- WP:SUBTITLE is not a policy, just a guideline, see also WP:COMMONNAME and other related policy Hhkohh (talk) 10:00, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
- Support I see no issue with the requested move, and it abides by the given guideline. -- AlexTW 03:35, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose cited guideline does not apply as disambiguation and long title are clearly beneficial to readers here, and in cases without (book) WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT works for short titles. In ictu oculi (talk) 07:22, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose - In ictu oculi pretty much sums this up. --Gonnym (talk) 21:52, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
