Chuck D interview[edit]

Isn't he actually presenting/"hosting" the docu? Was that another one with the same title?—Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.53.61.62 (talk) 12:00, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The N-Word → The N-Word (film) – Unlikely that this documentary film is the primary topic. Redirect The N-Word to Nigger, much like N-word, The n word, and The n-word already do. 162 etc. (talk) 05:29, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Per WP:DIFFCAPS. This capitalized spelling could realistically be typed in by people seeking the film. Of course, the article doesn't seem to pass GNG as-is, so maybe the better choice would be deletion in which case it would auto-redirect to the lowercase version anyway. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 10:28, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support The film has 1,152 views but The N Word: One Man's Stand has 82, The Nigger of the "Narcissus" has 2,113 and N-word has 924[[1]] (despite being a redirect). Redirect to N-word (disambiguation) not the generic meaning per WP:SMALLDETAILS since the capitalization and article makes the generic meaning less likely. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:29, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per WP:DIFFCAPS. The idea that someone typing "The" plus a hyphen and capital W would want anything other than the movie seems unlikely. But a hatnote easily takes care of that unlikely circumstance. Station1 (talk) 06:14, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support The capitalization is not distinctive here IMO. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 16:23, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nomination; Crouch, Swale and * Pppery *. Although my vote here runs counter to my Fashion Model → Fashion Model (film) "oppose" vote at the still-active Talk:Fashion Model#Requested move 9 May 2024, that choice is simply between the uppercase film Fashion Model and the lowercase profession fashion model. In this instance, the N-word (disambiguation) page has the primary topic and three other entries (plus a fourth entry, flowing to an unrelated Danish redirect). Ultimately, as pointed out in the nomination, there are a number of uppercase/lowercase forms in which the term can be rendered and, as far as the film's title is concerned, the nomination may be better positioned as The N-Word → The N Word (film) since the hyphen does not appear on either the poster or in the on-screen credits. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 23:55, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
