Absolute Zero (disambiguation)Absolute Zero – Per WP:DIFFCAPS no primary topic for the upper case similar to Bird Box and Red Meat. The "Absolute Zero" redirect gets 60 views but the DAB page gets 184 [[1]].

  • Oppose generally removing (disambiguation) on the basis of a cap is a bad idea, and Bird Box and Red Meat are not helpful either. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:21, 11 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom and the established guideline. Anyone capitalising "Zero" when doing a search is almost certainly looking for something on the dab page. PC78 (talk) 16:28, 11 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom. Dohn joe (talk) 16:31, 11 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Someone capitalizing "Zero" is still probably looking for the temperature, as none of the other entries are remotely as likely search targets, by a huge factor. --Trovatore (talk) 20:40, 11 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per IIO and Trovatore. And WP:ASTONISH. And WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. And WP:NAVEL.  — Amakuru (talk) 16:02, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, even if IIO feels the policy is a bad idea, it's still the policy. Page hits show that the someone capitalizing Zero is probably not looking for the temperature. -- JHunterJ (talk) 19:47, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would also point out that the "Absolute Zero" redirect was originally (2004) about a proper noun. Crouch, Swale (talk) 20:37, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Per WP:DIFFCAPS. Oppose arguments are WP:POINTy and not arguing on policy.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 10:14, 5 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Opposes, absolute zero means absolute zero (temperature) no matter how it's cased. Randy Kryn (talk) 20:42, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note that Friendly Fire has now been moved. Crouch, Swale (talk) 08:31, 10 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Absolute Zero has a primary meaning / primary topic of -273.15 °C. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:27, 14 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Not when "Zero" is capitalized, "Zero" is capitalized zero (!!!) times in the article Absolute zero. Crouch, Swale (talk) 14:06, 14 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
