Red Light Green Light (DaBaby song) → Red Light Green Light (song) – No other song of the same name has an article on Wikipedia. MC-123 (talk) 04:53, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 23:49, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

• @MC-123, Happily888, and Lennart97: queried move request Anthony Appleyard (talk) 23:54, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
• @MC-123: Contesting removal of disambiguator because of usage by Dune Rats and Duke Dumont. Compared to the other songs of the same name, DaBaby's article likely doesn't satisfy becoming the primary topic. Happily888 (talk) 07:57, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
• @Happily888: Per WP:SONGDAB, unless more than one article about songs of the same name exist, there is no need to disambiguate any further. Since the other songs you mention don't have articles, the proposed move is justified. Lennart97 (talk) 12:38, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
  • @Lennart97: Although I believe that this case could fall under the section's exception for redirects clause because the song results to be the most preferred option for readers's searches and/or it is a highly valued recording by multiple reliable sources. Both the Dune Rats and Duke Dumont songs would have better notability under primary topic guidelines than DaBaby's song currently does. Happily888 (talk) 02:57, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
• Support Per WP:SONGDAB. As the only notable topic of this name, clear primary. Requiring readers to first navigate to a disambiguation page of topics not notable enough for articles does the opposite of what our disambiguation guidelines are intended to do, which is aid reader navigation.--Yaksar (let's chat) 17:06, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
• Support per my comment above. I see no indication that the other songs with this name are equally or more notable as long as they don't have articles. Lennart97 (talk) 17:20, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
• Support per WP:SONGDAB and Lennart97 and Yaksar's comments. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AshMusique (talk • contribs) 09:54, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
• Support. I would have moved it myself if I'd found it before this RM was made. Ss112 10:15, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
• Support This song is clearly the more notable of the three as the Dune Rats song doesn’t appear to even meet notability criteria since it doesn’t look like it charted or got certified anywhere. The Duke Dumont song barely meets the criteria with a NZ Hot Singles peak and an ARIA gold certification but comparing that to this song reaching the top 50 in two countries it is clear this is the more notable of the two.
