Requested move 22 January 2019

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Moved per nom, and retarget Sound of Silence (film) and The Sound of Silence (film) to point to the disambiguation page. I'm leaving Sounds of Silence (documentary) as a redirect to Sounds of Silence (2006 film), though, because as far as I can tell the other two are not documentaries. If this is in error, please let me know. Thanks. — Amakuru (talk) 11:32, 31 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

– The first film does not follow WP:NCFILM in how it should be disambiguated, which is with "film" or "year film". All three are also very similar spelling per WP:SMALLDETAILS, where a reader could type any one of the three for any of the films. All 3 current titles should be redirected to The Sound of Silence (disambiguation) Gonnym (talk) 12:31, 22 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

Support per nom. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 17:23, 22 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
I'm going to support the first two, but not the third. The presence or absence of an "A" or a "The" is exactly the situation that WP:SMALLDETAILS exists for IMO. While I'd certainly support the creation of the redirect in the third case, I don't believe it needs to be moved. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 14:44, 24 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Support all three. Far too small a detail to be expected to be known by the reader. Andrewa (talk) 10:20, 30 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Oppose per WP:SMALLDETAILS and additional disambiguation in the titles is unnecessary since each could link to the other two (as well as the dab page) in the hatnote. I would support changing the disambiguation of the first one from "documentary" to "film". --В²C ☎ 19:16, 30 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
- I added the hatnotes. --В²C ☎ 19:36, 30 January 2019 (UTC) corrections/clarification --В²C ☎ 01:43, 31 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Support per nom. WP:SMALLDETAILS is an anti-reader hobby horse that only works for very notable subjects. Where 3 minor minor films are concerned helping the reader would mean recognizable titles per WP:CRITERIA. I've added posters to 2 of the 3 films as well. Probably more help for readers than improving the titles, but why not do both? Image requested tag on the new one. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:10, 31 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
