all redirects to "fashion model" come here — Preceding unsigned comment added by GregKaye (talkcontribs) 3:08 12 June 2014 (UTC)

I agree to the proposed change. 2A00:23C6:54AD:5701:5823:CBFF:E90E:5A1D (talk) 21:11, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Bovineboy2008: You made the original move / redirect from Fashion Model (film) to Fashion Model, so I thought you might comment here.
2A00:23C6:54AD:5701:5823:CBFF:E90E:5A1D, not all redirects come here. Fashion model redirects to Model (person)#Fashion modelling.
There is also Fashion Model Directory.
Do WP:COMMONNAME & WP:SURPRISE apply here? I would argue that they do, as I think most people who type in Fashion Model would hardly be looking for a 1945 film. I think a disambiguation page for Fashion Model would be the best option. Peaceray (talk) 17:14, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, a disambiguation page would be a good step. In the long run, the Fashion Model disambiguation page could evolve into the main page for Fashion Model, using the content from Model (person)#Fashion modelling. 86.135.242.225 (talk) 20:41, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fashion ModelFashion Model (film) – Formalising the discussion above. I'm neutral on the matter, but WP:DIFFCAPS may be relevant. If moving, we should also decide a target future for the resulting redirect Fashion Model.

Second, pageview statistics for a redirect versus for an article are apples and oranges. Redirect views come only from browsing to the redirect, whereas article views include arriving from a Google search or from typing into the search bar and then clicking one of the search suggestions. Model (person) had 1745 daily views, of which 762 were via redirects and 66 of those were via Fashion model. See Redirect Views and Pageviews Analysis (with Model (person) also shown). If you Google fashion model and click on the first link, Model (person), that will not be recorded as a page view for Fashion model. In contrast, the pageviews for Fashion Model include anyone searching on Google for something like fashion model movie, fashion model 1945, or fashion model wikipedia, and clicking on the Wikipedia article from among the top results. (It is not one of the top results for Fashion Model, which is equivalent to fashion model for Google.) SilverLocust 💬 18:54, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The key point is "But if [emphasis added] more people searching/linking "Fashion Model" are miscapitalizing the common noun than looking for the obscure film, then DIFFCAPS doesn't call for having the film at Fashion Model". That is true, but there is absolutely no evidence that most people are miscapitalizing the common noun. People are more likely to not bother with the shift key in searches than the other way around. That's further supported by pageviews for this article being at roughly the same low level as the two other films in the series[1]. Station1 (talk) 04:23, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
