Requested move 16 June 2015

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. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: not moved to "Fight Song", and original title has been reinstated. Early close per WP:SNOW. (non-admin closure) Snuggums (talk / edits) 01:54, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Fight Song (song) → Fight Song – Per WP:DIFFCAPS, I think it would be more appropriate to move the page to the proposed name, but we should also add a hatnote to distinguish this page from Fight song. Another example exists with Blank Space, see that article's talk page for more details. Paul Badillo (talk) 18:31, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, the article Fight song should be primary, both capitalized and uncapitalized. A 'fight song' is a thing, not a song (unless you count this play on words). Randy Kryn 19:55, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, Agree with previous comment. 'Fight song' is a specific term that relates to many songs. This article relates to a specific song. I also think Fight song should be primary in both capitals and uncapitalized. Whats new? (talk) 22:44, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support, but better restore back to original title: Fight Song (Rachel Platten song) minor difference with other articles. In ictu oculi (talk) 00:58, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose it should be called Fight Song (Rachel Platten song) while "fight song (disambiguation)" should be created that merges the two current disambiguation pages together. -- 70.51.203.69 (talk) 04:54, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Support return to Fight Song (Rachel Platten song) from whence it came and clarity. --Richhoncho (talk) 15:39, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies. I moved the page before checking if there was a discussion and only based it on another ill-advised move by User:Hadji87. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars^{Talk to me} 18:35, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Randy Kryn and Whats new?. –Chase (talk / contribs) 22:29, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Because this RM was started when the article was at a different title, let me clarify that I believe the original (and current, as of this writing) title Fight Song (Rachel Platten song) to be the most appropriate title for this article. –Chase (talk / contribs) 22:31, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

Sandra Bullock Vandalism

I've just deleted vandalism that suggested Sandra Bullock appeared in the music video for this song. It caused a music blogger to ask Rachel Platten about working with Sandra Bullock in an interview. Documenting it here in case it comes back. Viciouslies (talk) 07:41, 4 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Fight Song (EP)

Support split - The EP has charted, and should be split to a new article entitled Fight Song (EP). --Jax 0677 (talk) 00:27, 11 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Negative critical reception

The NY Times called the song "outrageously grating" in a contemporary review: https://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/07/arts/music/review-rachel-platten-experiments-with-wildfire.html. Definitely doesn't back up the reception section. 194.80.232.16 (talk) 18:49, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
