The result of the move request was: Moved to Follow you Home (Embrace song). EdJohnston (talk) 16:13, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Acoustic (single)Acoustic (Embrace song) – WP does not disambiguate by the word "single" for the simple reason that we are writing about a piece of music/song and not a marketing device/piece of plastic. A move to to Acoustic (song) would be misleading, therefore adding the band name in seems to be the best option. Richhoncho (talk) 06:35, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose "We are not writing about a marketing device/piece of plastic.", yet we write about Albums and Extended Plays as well. Moving the page to Acoustic (song) or Acoustic (Embrace song) would be misleading, since this article does not talk about a song. It is talking about a single with two tracks; just like a page about an EP or Album. If we're really intent and willing to break down Wikipedia's terrible way of documenting artist discographies even further, we could at least apply some little bit of common sense. There is no such song called "Acoustic" by Embrace, so the most obvious way out would be how Wikipedia normally does it (unfortunately): Take the first track of the single, in which case it is "Follow You Home", and make the song the subject of the article. Therefore;
Acoustic (single)Follow You Home (Embrace song)
I'd highly recommend this if we're going to join the so-called "trend", and no I'm not being sarcastic; this is way better than moving to Acoustic (Embrace song). RazorEye ⡭ ₪ ·o' ⍦ ࿂ 07:25, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support move to Acoustic (Embrace song) or Follow You Home (Embrace song)? RazorEye ⡭ ₪ ·o' ⍦ ࿂ 03:33, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Either one. Red Slash 03:37, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
But Acoustic (Embrace song) doesn't make any sense, since there is no song called "Acoustic". RazorEye ⡭ ₪ ·o' ⍦ ࿂ 04:36, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Fine by me, then. I only truly oppose the current title. Red Slash 04:39, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
FWIW I would support Starcheers' suggestion of redirecting the article until the point it's covered in reliable sources, but that's not really a decision to be made at RM.--Cúchullain t/c 17:19, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
