  • Oppose "mixtape" is hardly ambiguous. And the category you are using still citing several "(mixtape)" diambiguators. If we include the fact you've been moving (mixtape) to (Artist album) pages ([1][2]) the category is biased by the IIO previous moves. The change from "mixtape" to "album" belongs to WT:NCM not to WP:RM. © Tbhotch (en-2.5). 03:10, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
We can certainly raise a wider discussion at WT:NCM, but not every case is as straightforward as this one. For instance some of the mixtapes in the category are actually EPs. But this recording at 38:54 is clearly an album and is described as an "album" in sources both in article and such as Allmusic. Therefore if we say it is an album, classify it as an album, and sources confirm it is an album, the we should treat it as an album per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (music) on albums.

  • Weak support the artist should be attached -- 65.94.171.225 (talk) 05:01, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. No need for extra disambiguation. Perhaps raise a discussion at WT:NCM if the disambiguator mixtape is to be avoided, but it seems a very good one to me... anyone who knows the artist is likely to know it's a mixtape, but not conversely.
