• Ithica 27ϕ9 → Ithica 27 ϕ 9 — The spaces between the ϕ symbol can be clearly seen on the Ten Rapid CD and booklet and the single cover as evidenced here (link not working for some reason. Try this U-Mos (talk) 10:51, 17 May 2009 (UTC)). Apparently the new page name is black-listed?! — U-Mos (talk) 19:34, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
• What does WP:MOSTM say about the phi symbol in their name? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:26, 10 May 2009 (UTC)]
• Rename to something else that complies with MOS:TM... Ithica 27 phi 9? 76.66.202.139 (talk) 03:19, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

I fail to see the relevance of MOS:TM here. There is no trademark issue; the symbol is greek alphabet letter. U-Mos (talk) 08:36, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

• Comment.The obvious question is: "What do the sources say?" To answer that, let's see how some online sources write the song name. Now, Allmusic uses "Ithica 27-9". Discogs uses "Ithica 27Φ9" (that's a majuscule phi letter, I think). This review uses "Ithica 27/9". This one writes "Ithica 27o9". Here, they just say "Ithica". And here, we have "Ithica 27 Ø 9" – a delightful Scandinavian touch by the use of a majuscule Ø letter. Now, all of those titles should probably redirect to whatever is the result of this move discussion. With this many different variants, I'd go with the official usage (is that a minuscule phi?) and redirect everything to it. That way at least the user learns how it's supposed to be written. So yeah, support. Jafeluv (talk) 20:30, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

It would seem that the upper case phi, for want of a better word, is "fatter" than the one in question here. Also, in addition to the above single cover here is the track listing as printed on Ten Rapid. U-Mos (talk) 10:51, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, it's pretty clearly a ϕ (lowercase phi) in the cover. Jafeluv (talk) 11:33, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Ithica

Why in the world does Ithica redirect here? Does anyone seriously think this is the primary Ithica? Is Wikipedia suddenly overrun with Mogwai fans? Thmazing (talk) 01:03, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

agreed, thats rediculous. this should be a disambiguation page.P0PP4B34R732 (talk) 01:14, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
