WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. In the four years since the last RM for this article, the term "hoverboard" has established itself pretty decisively as meaning the subject of this article- the "self-balancing scooter", and is also the main term used for the topic in most places. When I googled "hoverboard", the first 45 results were for this topic, with the fictional hoverboard first appearing as the 46th google search result. Given the overwhelming extent to which "hoverboard" generally means the topic of this article, combined with the fact that the term "self-balancing scooter" is almost never used, a move is obviously needed. This google trends graph illustrates the extent to which the "scooter" is the primary topic- neither "hoverboard" nor "self-balancing scooter" were ever searched for until the hoverboard (scooter) became popular in 2015, but since then it has received a lot of searches- almost all of which must be for the "scooter". Given the decisiveness of the primary topic, I'm surprised the article hasn't been moved long ago, but better late than never... Chessrat (talk, contributions) 03:00, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Check out the pageviews, and perhaps WP:NWFCTM. 162.208.168.92 (talk) 17:23, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The google trends graph isn’t really helpful, as anyone wanting to reach this article will have to go through that one (as nobody would think to search for “self-balancing scooter”). Chessrat (talk, contributions) 01:53, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
