The result of the move request was: No moves per consensus that the primary topic has been correctly assigned overall. (non-admin closure) Red Slash 17:01, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

– No clear primary topic of either singular or plural. The instrument gets 5,397 views but Ajuga (of which "Bugle is a common name) has 2,488, The Bugle has 1,504, Bugle, Cornwall has 139, the snack has 5,598 and Elk (a sound made by a male elk) has 28,673. It seems that there is no clear primary topic by usage for the singular though the instrument is probably the most likely and by long-term significance the instrument and plant are stronger candidates for. Like with Ruffles Bugles (potato crisps) is also an option but the article seems to describe is as a snack rather than brand even though both are snacks/brands.

Oppose per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. The data in the nom shows the instrument as the primary topic for Bugle and the snack as primary for Bugles. Note that the dab page, despite being linked from hatnotes at both Bugle and Bugles, still gets only about 6 hits per day, or 1% of readers. There doesn't seem to be any problem with the current setup. Station1 (talk) 20:18, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per Station1. Elk is completely irrelevant for pageview states; the current setup with the instrument being primary for Bugle and the snack being primary for Bugles appears correct. It seems that "bugleweed" is far more common than "bugle" to refer to Ajuga, at least in the US. User:力 (power~enwiki, π, ν) 17:34, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. I think the status quo is correct that instrument is primary for Bugle and the snack is primary for Bugles. The page view data is consistent with this, taking into account the difference between singular and plural not captured by the data, and discounting Elk and Ajuga to the appropriate degree per power~enwiki (力) .

Oppose. The instrument is the clear primary topic. But support moving the snack. Bugles should redirect to Bugle. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:06, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
