Popular Song (disambiguation) → Popular Song – I guess the Gershwin Prize don't deserve to be the primary topic of "Popular Song". If you think this deserves to be the primary topic, please try to adjust the disambiguation page of it. Please refer to Wikipedia:PRIMARYTOPIC and MOS:DABPRIMARY. j3j3j3...pfH0wHz 10:03, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

• Comment - depends on whether we want to make an issue about capitalisation. The only capitalized topics are the two songs, the classical and notable one by William Walton, and the piece of passing fluff by a singer called Mika, then the dab can be filled out by a partial Neil Diamond match, and the old English name (which isn't used in Korea anyway) of a Korean TV show. There doesn't seem any great need to change anything. In ictu oculi (talk) 14:11, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

The redirect Popular Song history probably should go to the dab, and not to the Gershwin Prize for Popular Song. In ictu oculi (talk) 23:06, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

• Oppose - it seems to me that Popular music is the primary topic here; I don't think we can safely make assumptions about what users do or don't intend by capitalization in the search box, since the search box generally is not case-sensitive. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 19:26, 25 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Reply to R'n'B But Popular Song and Popular song is a different redirect. By the way, the search box is not case sensitive. Here is the proof by clicking this and this. If I am wrong, it is okay. j3j3j3...pfH0wHz 01:30, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
• Oppose. To avoid confusions. Coreyemotela (talk) 20:24, 25 May 2014 (UTC).
• Weak Oppose Prefer instead retarget "Popular Song" to popular music per popular song per RnB -- 65.94.171.126 (talk) 08:33, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Comment however, if this is not pointed to the popular music page, then replacement with the disambiguation page is the next best option -- 65.94.171.126 (talk) 04:33, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
• Comment So some of you opposed my request, now let's discuss what should we do for the redirect Popular Song (redirect to Gershwin Prize) and Popular song (redirect to Popular music). If this request was closed and this does not moved, let's fix the disambiguation page following the rule provided right here. j3j3j3...pfH0wHz 01:30, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
