Redirect edit

I didn't really like the idea of a redirect, but if there is going to be one, it might as well point to the article in greater use. Mudhoney band gets more google hits. --EndlessVince 06:36, 11 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

The google test is not a proper test, sorry. It is only proper that Mudhoney should redirect to the original film, a work of a art, rather than some low quality "grunge" band. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mactabbed (talkcontribs)
It is the proper test. It's used by wikipedia far and wide. The term most in-use will be the first article seen. Also, please sign your posts with four tildes. --EndlessVince 21:36, 11 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

MudhoneyMudhoney (disambiguation) — The band is by far the most common use of the term "Mudhoney", and by allowing this move, the band could then be moved from . The film yeilds few hits, however most links brought up by Google that link to the film make more of a point that the film was the namesake for the band. Few sites about the band make reference to this, and those that do note it as a trivial piece of information. We're not deleting the film's page, just placing less emphasis on it. In my opinion, this change will be giving the appropriate amount of emphasis on the film article, which provides an appropriate amount of ackowledgement towards the band. —lincalinca 06:03, 8 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

  • Support. "Mudhoney" most commonly refers to the band, and as such the band's article should be the primary topic. Olessi 13:32, 10 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
  • Support 99% of the links to this page intend the band. Ewlyahoocom 17:13, 10 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
