Addition requested by BarrelProof at my user talk: the capitalized (or not) "A" was indeed a secondary issue, as I was focused on the nominator's main point (as supported by consensus) to properly disambiguate the article title. Rotideypoc41352 (talk · contribs) 02:49, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Rub-A-Dub-DubRub-A-Dub-Dub (song) – Not a primary topic when compared to Rub-A-Dub-Dub (novel) in terms of page views. Rub-A-Dub-Dub could then be redirected to Rub-a-dub-dub (disambiguation). Kidneyspr (talk) 04:12, 1 May 2024 (UTC) This is a contested technical request (permalink). —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 19:41, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment from WP:RMTR: The nursery rhyme seems to also sometimes be considered a song. It has the Roud Folk Song Index number 3101, so maybe the Hank Thompson song should be at Rub-A-Dub-Dub (country music song). I also wonder about the capital 'A' and MOS:CT; the only cited sources seem to use all-caps. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 17:15, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Good point about "(Hank Thompson song)". About the "A", the Allmusic review of the album by Bruce Eder calls it "Rub-a-Dub-Dub" (lowercase 'a'). —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 21:35, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There's no consistency from what I can find. So we default to lowercase, moving Rub-A-Dub-Dub to Rub-a-Dub-Dub (Hank Thompson song)?
I think it doesn't matter much due to low number of visits, but should Rub-A-Dub-Dub then redirect to the disambiguation page instead of the nursery rhyme due to its capitalization? Kidneyspr (talk) 23:46, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
