Ring—i—Ring → Ring-i-Ring – While I would have moved the page myself, I wanted to get the opinion of other editors. Most sources (found through Google) appear to use the em dashes. I'm not sure what the expression means in Danish (perhaps "ring-a-ring", as in "ring-a-ring-a-roses"?), but I can't imagine the em dashes are necessary and to standardise it, I think it should be moved to the title with hyphens or at least en dashes instead.

Weak support: Both of the sources cited in the article use hyphens rather than dashes. One of them uses "I" rather than "i" in the middle. Most sources with the em dashes seem low quality / non-independent, e.g., music vendor sites. According to this, the "Ring i Ring" is "the Danish Alcoholics Anonymous". —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 03:08, 3 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Here is the title (use dashes) on the album cover: https://scale.coolshop-cdn.com/product-media.coolshop-cdn.com/AG72ST/f0b6c12d113c404a8f41b2e36b00b7b2.jpg/f/nephew-ring-i-ring.jpg, the same is also on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/5p2HBojRsm570UGjPeIBjX?si=Zb_-8X-0Tri6OZnqzghbJA. The Danish article also uses dashes Ring—i—Ring —⁠ ⁠Slagmannen924 (talk) 15:28, 7 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

None of those are independent reliable sources. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 00:54, 9 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Here is two: [1] [2]. On the band's website they use dashes: nephew.dk. —⁠ ⁠Slagmannen924 (talk) 14:57, 9 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
