The result of the move request was: not moved, only article for this title, MOS:DABMENTIONS can be handled through dab. Partial title matches are not ambiguous. -- JHunterJ (talk) 14:39, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
I Love Her → I Love Her (Marques Houston song) – I have created I Love Her (album) as a redirect to Aku Cinta Dia. Also, this topic is too obscure, and the name is too ambiguous, especially with partial matches, such as And I Love Her. Also, there is the Frijid Pink song with the same name.

This is the only article titled "I Love Her", so arguably does not need disambiguating. As you well know, George, moves such as this have been controversial recently. Definitely needs a full discussion. Jenks24 (talk) 04:01, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

- Oppose. Obscurity is not a good reason to add a qualifier; if a title is the only or primary topic, then it does not generally need further qualification, regardless of how many hits the article gets. Here, there's one article with this title, and a newly-created redirect - not even a disambiguation page. If the redirect proves to be popular, we can revisit.

- Note. Obscurity, of course, is relevant to the question whether a topic is notable to begin with. I'm not familiar with the conventions on notability of individual songs, but I question whether this song is notable enough for an article. Has anyone considered AfD here? (That would make this RM moot, of course.) Dohn joe (talk) 18:37, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
- Not my forte, but I believe the music project considers all songs that have charted, as this one did, to be notable (see WP:NSONGS). Jenks24 (talk) 02:37, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
- If a topic is very obscure, and we have multiple possible uses, then obviously it cannot be the primary topic, since it would be too obscure to establish primarity. 70.24.251.208 (talk) 06:27, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

- Oppose. I don't see any valid reasons or need for disambiguation. --DAJF (talk) 12:19, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
- Support. For now the undisambiguated name should redirect to I Love Her (disambiguation) (which I've just created). Andrewa (talk) 03:12, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
- What's your reasoning? Dohn joe (talk) 05:00, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
- No reason to think that this is the primary topic, or even that there is one. Andrewa (talk) 06:33, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
