Requested move

[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. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved to original title of "Ladies and Gentleman", which still redirected here. The only source uses the word "and" rather than an ampersand, and this is the only film of this name (for which we have an article). DrKiernan (talk) 16:45, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Ladies & Gentleman (2013 Malayalam film)Ladies & Gentleman – The movie has a unique title – Ladies & Gentleman and no disambiguation is required. If at all one is needed, it should be just "Ladies & Gentleman (film)". Ladies and Gentlemen (2013 Hindi film) should also be thus moved to Ladies and Gentlemen (2013 film).

Ladies & Gentlemen should redirect to Ladies and Gentlemen, but the requested move was for Ladies & Gentleman which is a unique title. --Jairodz (talk) 07:25, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

[edit]

Two of the oppose votes above seem to be based on a misreading of the move request. The question is not whether and as opposed to & is sufficient disambiguation, it is assumed in several places above that it is not, and there seems to be consensus on this although the question has not been asked explicitly. The question is whether a as opposed to e in Gentleman as opposed to Gentlemen is sufficient disambiguation. There could even be said to be rough consensus on this too, that it is sufficient disambiguation, as only the first of the three oppose votes so far even addresses this question.
