Medal of Honor (series)Medal of Honor (video game series) – Ambiguous due to an unrelated comic book Medal of Honor (comics) which also is a "series". Netoholic @ 11:07, 5 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose It's not ambiguous at all. Average daily page views of the video game series are 947 and are 4 per day for the comic book. That means the video game gets about 237 times more views daily than the comic book series. Makes no sense to move.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 12:51, 5 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
All page views prove is that search engines do a great job finding the article no matter what name its under. This isn't a popularity contest, its disambiguation. The new name will not affect daily page views one bit, as the search engine will adjust. -- Netoholic @ 20:15, 5 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
This is a very, very obvious case of one being the primary topic. In fact, it's unclear whether the comic book is even notable at all, as it has no secondary sources. I won't nominate it for deletion at this time because it would seem WP:POINTy, but I just want to point out that it will probably fail an AfD.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 01:55, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
