Momma Miss America (Paul McCartney song)Momma Miss AmericaMomma Miss America redirects to the McCartney album wikipage, where it should be this article. The Madras (talk) 09:00, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Why does this album track have an article? In ictu oculi (talk) 13:55, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Isn't the redirect for the same topic? If so I support but it could probably be moved per WP:SONGDAB anyway if its the only notable song. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:19, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • The redirect for now sends the user to the McCartney album itself, which the song appears on. Then this article with a longer name was created instead. The Madras (talk) 08:55, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • But why not delete it? Is every minor album track by McCartney a standalone song article? In ictu oculi (talk) 21:49, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • That's a separate argument for WP:AfD. This question is – "As long as the article exists, what should be its title?" --IJBall (contribstalk) 16:40, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Current setup makes no sense at all. Momma Miss America is unambiguous and is the title of this song. There is no need to disambiguate. And the current redirect is just plain wrong, if the song has its own article, as presently. As to whether the song should have an article, that's not the question here, but noting that the article contains encyclcopedic sourced material a merge and redirect would seem a much better option to me.
