Article title
editI did a little bit of reading up on the guidelines concerning article titles and I'm wondering if this article's title should be shortened to "Root of Evil" because right now "Root of Evil: The True Story of the Hodel Family and the Black Dahlia" is really long and currently there is only a redirect for the exact title "Root of Evil". For the sake of being concise and also clearly indicating what the subject of the article is perhaps "Root of Evil (podcast)" would be best? Either way shouldn't this article be added to the list at the disambiguation page Root of Evil (disambiguation)? I'm unclear what the guidelines are for pages like that so I'm just making a note here. TipsyElephant (talk) 15:38, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

Root of Evil: The True Story of the Hodel Family and the Black Dahlia → Root of Evil (podcast) – I believe this should be renamed for the sake of being WP:CONCISE. The title is currently very WP:PRECISE, but it's so long I can't imagine anyone typing it all out. I'm doing a requested move instead of moving it myself because I wanted a second opinion in case I misunderstood the guidelines.

- WP:SUBTITLE says a subtitle may be used for natural disambiguation. Crouch, Swale (talk) 08:34, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Crouch, Swale: would a redirect from Root of Evil (podcast) be appropriate or is it not worth having a redirect with a qualifier? What about Root of Evil which redirects to Born Rich (TV series)? Should the redirect go to the TV show or the podcast? TipsyElephant (talk) 19:47, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
- There is a DAB page at Root of all evil where this title could redirect to if moved, yes we could have a Root of Evil (podcast) redirect like Bury, Suffolk>Bury St Edmunds. Crouch, Swale (talk) 20:26, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
