Catalog (album) → Catalog (Tsukiko Amano album) – Insufficient disambiguation, see other albums listed at Catalog 162.208.168.92 (talk) 17:18, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

• @Station1, 162.208.168.92, In ictu oculi, and Lithopsian: queried move request Anthony Appleyard (talk) 14:57, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 14:55, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

• There is no other article about an album titled Catalog. Station1 (talk) 17:38, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

We do, however, have Catalogue (Moloko album) and Catalogue (John Hartford album), which could lead to confusion. 162.208.168.92 (talk) 19:37, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

I already put a hatnote on Catalog (album) to avoid possible confusion. Station1 (talk) 04:57, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

• Support minor difference and artist name helpful to readers In ictu oculi (talk) 13:38, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
• Oppose: we shouldn't assume everyone has mis-spelled or misunderstood what they're looking for an send them off to long (and in this case largely irrelevant) dab pages when they probably know what they're looking for. Hatnotes are for helping the few lost souls and they should be preferred until they become too cumbersome. Lithopsian (talk) 14:29, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
• Fair enough, although I see this as more of a WP:PDAB situation where the Tsukiko Amano album is not primary ahead of the other two. 162.208.168.92 (talk) 14:56, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

If the spellings were the same then I'd agree, but the different spellings mean that (currently) there is strictly only one album by this name. This isn't a case of UK vs US spelling, pick whichever you like, these are proper names. I would consider mis-spellings to form only a small proportion of hits, hence leaving this as primary for now. Page hits are actually lowest for this title out of the three, but all are pretty low. I'm not sure if redirects such as Catalog (Moloko album) would help or just create confusion. Lithopsian (talk) 15:32, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

I'm going to undermine my own point here, but it does seem like these small differences aren't usually disambiguated. See Three Words (song) and 3 Words (song), Stand Up! (album) and 5 other albums named "Stand Up", Hold On! (album) and 4 other albums named "Hold On"... 162.208.168.92 (talk) 23:01, 12 April 2021 (UTC)

Yes. The relevant guideline is WP:SMALLDETAILS. - Station1 (talk) 23:18, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
