Illit (group)ILLIT – The current situation is, the group is commonly addressed as ILLIT (all in capital letters), instead of Illit or its original spelling I'LL-IT (or alternatively I'll-it). The title should go with the name that was commonly spelt and used for addressing the group. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 17:41, 10 March 2024 (UTC) This is a contested technical request (permalink).

– Comparing the pageview statistics, the girl group is clearly the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Wpstatus (talk) 06:20, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

  • Comment, I used to have a disambiguation page that had only two subjects and it was deleted after some nomination based on the supposed criteria that I cannot have only two subjects in a disambiguation and apparently, more than two is suitable. So your stance here might not work out in the sense that we have only two different illit articles, one company (defunct and understandably non-notable) and one girl group from Korea.

    Comment I don't think there's anything wrong with a disambiguation page with only 2 subjects (if there is no primary topic), considering that the example given at WP:NOPRIMARY is the page John Quested, which has exactly 2 subjects. However, that would be irrelevant here if we decide that the girl group is the primary topic. Wpstatus (talk) 03:36, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
  • Support per nom NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 16:24, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
  • Oppose per WP:RECENTISM and I agree with Cfls to have a dab page for Illit instead. 98𝚃𝙸𝙶𝙴𝚁𝙸𝚄𝚂 17:20, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

  • Support Although the group is much more recent than the company, I think that the group's popularity, coupled with the company's obscurity, is enough to make the group the primary topic. The defunct bus company Illit serviced a single Israeli settlement, Beitar Illit, that had a population of less than 50,000. It's on the edge of WP:NCORP: there are barely any (maybe not even five) reliable, independent secondary sources (in English or Hebrew) that mention it in significant detail. In contrast, the group, although recent, already has substantial global popularity—Magnetic ranks #6 on the Billboard Global 200, and it's quite easy to find significant coverage around the world about the group. This is borne out by pageviews: the company received ~8000 views from 2015 to the group's debut [1], a number that the group beats every one or two days. Probably >99.9% of people would be looking for the article about the group, not the defunct bus company, when searching for "Illit". Malerisch (talk) 11:47, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment I agree with you on this, and considering the majority opinion at the present, your reasons are more detailed and persuasive, on top of the reasons for the proposed move. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 13:00, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment To add, most people will not only be actively looking for the group's article (instead of the company's) at the present time, but also for the long future while Illit still meaningfully exists as a group. The same can't be said for the defunct company. 「HypeBoy」TALK 21:42, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
