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 section.
The result of the move request was: (non-admin closure) NOT MOVED consensus is that the draft should capitalized as "Quantum psychology" (I've moved it) and that possibly that article should be at some other title altogether; until the article is moved to mainspace it can't be the primary topic. It's not clear if there would be consensus to avoid a capitalization-based disambiguation once that article is in mainspace. power~enwiki (π, ν) 04:21, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose for now. The 1990 book, as far as I can tell, invented and defined the term Quantum Psychology. The draft page could be merged with existing articles such as Quantum mind, Quantum cognition, or Quantum brain dynamics and named something similar, as the draft article's name may be piggy-backing on this book (I left a note asking the initial writer where the name comes from). Only one of the draft's references comes before 1990, but more importantly to this discussion, only one other reference mentions the term Quantum psychology - the lower-cased title of a 1993 book published three years after Wilson's. Will keep watch on this discussion and may change my "mind" (see what I did there) if more clarification for the title is given, and ask other editors to give the history of the term and using it as the name for the draft page a look as well. Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 10:14, 13 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Update, the primary editor, Ivannaivama, has answered my note on their talk page, and it seems they chose the title as a good title for the page, but not sourced. So a quandary, should an original research name be given primary over the existing book title which seems to have invented the term? Ivannaivama seems to have a nice area of interest, and it's good to meet them. Randy Kryn (talk) 04:49, 21 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose for now. The correct target title, at Quantum psychology, is not taken, as In ictu oculi points out. If we put the new article there, we are left with a distinction by case only, which is not generally allowed, but we can deal with it at that time. Please fix case first in the draft. E.g. at Draft:Quantum Psychology#Quantum Models and the Brain, both article title and section title should be in sentence case, not title case. And please don't make the article lead about a term ("Quantum Psychology is a generic term..."); should be "Quantum psychology is a field..." or something like that.

Maybe, building on your idea, the Wilson book can be mentioned in the first couple of sentences of the page. "Quantum psychology is a field ...., first named and described by author Robert Anton Wilson in his 1990 book Quantum Psychology." or some such, and give the field primary while putting the "book" descriptor on this page (but assuring somehow that the book information and link is maintained in the lede of the primary).
