The result of the move request was: Speedily MOVED to This Is America (Justin Tranchita song). Red Slash 11:43, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is America (song) → This is America (Steve Messer song) – Move to disambiguate with This is America (Childish Gambino song), which is quite likely to become the better known song by this name very quickly. bd2412 T 11:41, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support move. Unlikely the Messer song is the primary topic. ONR (talk) 12:00, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support, but @BD2412: why not Justin Tranchita song? In ictu oculi (talk) 14:19, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Don't songs usually go to the writer? bd2412 T 16:02, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support, although I have no opinion on which one ultimately gets "This is America (song)." The "(song)" page should probably just redirect to This is America (disambiguation). - - mathmitch7 ^{(talk/contribs)} 15:43, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- That is what I mean by 'move to disambiguate'. Note that I have also proposed to move the disambiguation page to the base page name. bd2412 T 16:02, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support, but the i in "Is" should be capitalized – This Is America (Steve Messer song). Chase (talk | contributions) 15:31, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Per WP:ALBUMCAPS, it appears that you are correct. bd2412 T 16:04, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Shouldn't it be "This is America (Justin Tranchita song)"? I've always seen the performer in parenthesis. Cornerstonepicker (talk) 16:24, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I have no particular objection to that, but do we have some precedents to look at? bd2412 T 16:45, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Move to This Is America (Justin Tranchita song) - proper attribution per WP:SONGDAB and capitalization per MOS:TITLECAPS. --Netoholic @ 17:46, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Move to Justin Tranchita?[edit]

It looks like To editor JE98: redirected this page to Justin Tranchita, effectively deleting the page. At first I balked but I think it may indeed be an appropriate move because all of the song's information is on the artist's main page. I just wanted to flag it here in case anyone has alternate opinions...? - - mathmitch7 ^{(talk/contribs)} 20:08, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
