Talk:Death Bed (Coffee for Your Head)

Requested move 8 May 2020

The following is a closed 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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Not Moved. There is strong consensus against moving to the lower case title. Several editors have suggested a move to Death Bed (song), Death Bed (Powfu song) or Death Bed (Coffee for Your Head), but the discussion did not reach consensus as to whether to add a disambiguator. This closure does not imply prejudice against anyone proposing a move to any of those titles. Station1 (talk) 04:51, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

Death Bed → death bed – Proper stylization for the song (see the article's page) WikiMaster111 (talk) 23:24, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

This is a contested technical request. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 03:39, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

• Is this song really the primary topic for the term "death bed"? There is also the question of whether we capitalise according to Wikipedia's conventions or the producers' stylisation. Certes (talk) 00:23, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

• Move to Death Bed (Powfu song). Definitely do not use the all-lowercase styling, per MOS:CT / MOS:TM / WP:TITLETM. Note that the cover art doesn't have a space in it. —BarrelProof (talk) 04:19, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

@BarrelProof: Maybe just Death Bed (song), or even Death Bed (Coffee for Your Head)? Even though there are other songs titled "Death Bed", this is the most prominent one among the others. Nahnah4 (talk | contribs) 04:45, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

This song may be the most prominent Death Bed song currently, but it's only one year old. In 5 years, interest in it will have probably faded, and we should avoid WP:RECENTISM. On the other hand, this is the only Death Bed song that has an article devoted to it. I don't have an opinion about whether Death Bed (Coffee for Your Head) would be a good title or not – maybe it would. —BarrelProof (talk) 16:06, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

• Oppose per WP:MOSCAPS. Many songs are stylised in lowercase, but the article title is never in all-lowercase. Other examples include "thank u, next" and "bad guy". Nahnah4 (talk | contribs) 04:46, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
• Strong oppose Violates MOS:TM, impossible for technical reasons. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 22:54, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
• Oppose per the examples provided by Nahnah4. SK2242 (talk) 00:36, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
• Oppose per MOS:TM, and because it's not the primary for "Death bed". However, I'd also argue it's not the primary for "Death Bed" (capitalized) either; I'd recommend a move to Death Bed (song) (and redirecting "Death Bed" to the disambiguation page). Paintspot Infez (talk) 01:21, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
• Oppose. Rename to Death Bed (song) and redirect Death Bed to the dab page. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:05, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
• Oppose, songs with stylized lowercase should NEVER have that stylization in the article title, however I do agree that this isn't the primary topic for "death bed" and should be moved to "Death Bed (song)" while "Death Bed" can be the disambiguation page 2600:1702:10A0:6DA0:C4EE:915:5E2:9195 (talk) 00:44, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
• Strong oppose, per MOS:CAPTITLE. Also, we don't follow stylization conventions and an exception should not be made here. AshMusique (talk) 19:53, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Death Bed → Death Bed (Coffee for Your Head) – The original title is "Death Bed", but it seems like more people are going to know this as the actual song title. We should try to avoid recentism, and view how people are going to find this article in the long term. Cross-refer to "Ily (I Love You Baby)", which was also re-titled.

• Support and redirect Death Bed to Deathbed. This pretty obscure recent song is not the primary topic for the term. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:08, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
• Support per nomination and Necrothesp. Death bed already redirects to the Deathbed disambiguation page and the 1977 film Death Bed: The Bed That Eats has been also referenced as simply Death Bed. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 06:11, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
• Support and redirect Death Bed to Deathbed. In ictu oculi (talk) 10:31, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
