Move request

What is this comment supposed to mean? -- BRG 20:03, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It means the instructions weren't completely followed. The Ozzy Osbourne song was actually an article [1] that eventually got redirected, probably because the song non-notable and doesn't need an article. If articles link Don't Blame Me (song) intending the Ozzy song, then unlink them. So I oppose this move proposal because there seems to be only one notable song called "Don't Blame Me". –Pomte 02:23, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 25 June 2022

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Moved to Don't Blame Me (Dorothy Fields and Jimmy McHugh song). This song was found not to be primary over the Taylor Swift song, at the very least. But disambiguating by primary credited song creators seems to be the standard for songs, so that alternative suggestion will be used instead.

Don't Blame Me (song)Don't Blame Me (1933 song)Well, user BRG, today's your lucky day!

About a month ago, someone created an article for Taylor Swift's 2017 song "Don't Blame Me" - originally a redirect. With this, it's clear the 1933 "Don't Blame Me" cannot retain the (song) disambiguator any more, because now we have two song articles with the same name - and thus no primary topic. Per WP:DABSONG (emphasis added by me): "if there is no defined performer of an old song (over 50 years), the lyricist(s) and/or the composer(s) are not well-recognized, or multiple notable performers that have covered it are better known than the original recording artist, the year of publication will be used."
