Requested move 20 June 2020
[edit]- The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
Moved as proposed; the base page name will be disambiguated. BD2412 T 18:43, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
Abuse of Power → Abuse of Power (novel) – This page has flipped back and forth between the disambiguated and undisambiguated titles a couple of times already. I believe that it should have a disambiguator, as the general concept of abuse of power is the primary topic over this novel. Sharper {talk} 18:32, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

- Revert the recent undiscussed move and speedy close - UnitedStatesian BOLDly moved this just a couple days ago, but it wasn't discussed ahead of time and so a full RM is not necessary, it just needs to go back. A DAB should certainly be created at primary based on abuse of power and Special:PrefixIndex/Abuse of Power. -- Netoholic @ 10:42, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
- UnitedStatesian's move of a couple days ago was actually a reversion of another editor's undiscussed move from last December. Abuse of Power is the long-term stable title from the article's creation in 2011 until then, so this discussion should be allowed to run its course. Station1 (talk) 18:07, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
- Keep as is without dismabiguator. As the bold mover, WP:CONCISE applies and the capitalization is sufficient to disambiguate from the general concept, as is the case with many other similar pages. UnitedStatesian (talk) 16:03, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
- Support and make Abuse of Power a DAB page per WP:DIFFCAPS but leave Abuse of power as is. The novel gets 113 views (including the 9 from the base name title from the move) while the film only gets 2. The lower case term gets 9,537[[1]] which is significantly more but since that isn't a proper noun its safest to assume that there's no primary topic for the upper case similar to Red Meat and Friendly Fire. @Netoholic: isn't that what you meant to say since I assume based on views and long-term significance you don't think the lower case term should be a DAB page?

- Yeah, to confirm I was thinking we should have a DAB at Abuse of Power (abuse of power left alone). I think with so few views between the novel and the film, that most people coming to the uppercased title are actually looking for the much more popular lowercase article - at least enough that there is NOPRIMARY at the uppercased. -- Netoholic @ 19:40, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
- Support. I'm generally a supporter of using capital letters to disambiguate, but this novel is relatively obscure. Calidum 14:17, 22 June 2020 (UTC)
- Support and dabbify per WP:DIFFCAPS. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 22:11, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
