Abdul the Damned → Abdul the Damned (film) – This should redirect to Abdul Hamid II as the main topic. Seraphim System ^(talk) 14:30, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Absolutely no need for this. Abdul Hamid II's article would not under any circumstances be titled Abdul the Damned, and since the film article is getting relatively few views, hardly anyone is confused. For those few, Abdul Hamid II is linked in the lead. Station1 (talk) 16:48, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support. "Abdul the Damned" appears to be one of the nicknames/titles for Abdul Hamid II, and is mentioned in its lead. In this case, the inspiration should be given the primary page, just as it logically is with Apple amd Apple Inc. (the latter gets far more page views).

Support a book check shows that the name given by Edwin Pears to Abdul relates more to the individual than the film. In ictu oculi (talk) 06:48, 16 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Provided a hatnote is added to the Abdul Hamid II article linking to this one. 23:20, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
