Requested move 8 April 2018

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moving as requested: as noted, the only current encyclopedia topic with this title. The argument behind some opposes is deprecated by WP:TPTM. Other opposes express concern that the song may not be notable, but that can only be determined via a different venue. As an added benefit, this eliminates a strange hatnote at the top of 12-hour clock. A hatnote can be added here instead. Dekimasuよ! 01:54, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

8AM8AM (maxi-single) – About two years ago, there was consensus established via a move discussion at Talk:8AM (song)#Requested move 8 April 2018 that the subject of this article (the subjects at 8AM (maxi-single) and 8AM (song) [see the latter's edit history]) should be at the "8AM" title without a disambiguator. I don't agree with that since I do not see how the spaces and periods comparing "8 A.M." and "8AM" are enough to distinguish each other, especially since the version without spaces or periods could also refer to the time of the day. For this reason, I'm proposing that this article be moved back to the title it was at (as proposed in this move request), and that the leftover redirect at 8AM be retargeted to 8 A.M., a disambiguation page.

Looking back at that discussion (which I closed), however, what strikes me is that there are no other articles called either "8AM" or "8 A.M." Arguably the disambiguation page is at that title for consistency with 9 A.M., 7 A.M., etc., but there doesn't appear to be any indication that this is not the primary topic if the time is not treated as an encyclopedic topic. I cannot think of any reason why the time of day should ever be wikilinked in a way that would cause confusion. I'd suggest pinging the previous participants.
