The Black → ? – Clearly not suitable as a "primary topic"; the band's article gets significantly less views than The Black (Asking Alexandria album), for example. But is The Black (band) sufficient, or does it need to be The Black (American band) to disambiguate with Black (Bangladeshi band)? PC78 (talk) 08:58, 16 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • They are combined on disambiguation pages, but are different for article titles, for example 1975 and The 1975. Plurals often share a disambiguation page with the singular form, but that doesn't make Queen (band) and Queens (group) the same. "The Black (band)" can only possibly refer to this - it only has to be disambiguated from other topics with the same title, not topics with similar titles just because they could appear on the same disambiguation page.

The result of the move request was: no consensus. Participants were unable to come to an agreement as to whether the presence of "The" in the American band's title was sufficient to disambiguate it from the Bangladeshi band.

– unambiguous, due to "The". WP:SMALLDETAILS 162 etc. (talk) 04:43, 18 March 2024 (UTC) This is a contested technical request (permalink). 162 etc. (talk) 16:36, 19 March 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Natg 19 (talk) 17:52, 27 March 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Polyamorph (talk) 10:26, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any evidence of this in reliable sources. 162 etc. (talk) 16:40, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
