Requested move 12 July 2015

[edit]
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. I sympathise with Dohn joe because this should have been reverted when he asked at RM/TR. However, there is a consensus here that the song is not the primary topic of the term "God and Satan". The dab page will be moved to the base location.

The user's summary "(redirect to only en.wp topic)" shows the user does not understand the difference between "article title" and "topic" which is WP:DISAMBIGUATION and WP:PRIMARYTOPIC work, not title, repeat NOT TITLE. God and Satan are a TOPIC discussed in Book of Job, and God as the Devil and also of course Satan.
And again in Google Books clearly "God and Satan" refers to God and Satan (or the perceived relationship between God and Satan. It does not refer to a 2008 UK song of which the article says "Chart performance : On the week of physical release, the single entered the UK singles charts at 36, making it the sixth single from Only Revolutions to reach the top 40, and the least successful of these." This song is not the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of God and Satan (disambiguation) and I request the dab page be put back at baseline. In ictu oculi (talk) 03:49, 13 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Calidum insertion of the article into the title search space was also undiscussed. "this is the only encyclopedic topic with the title" is the same as saying "ignore topic follow title", but WP:DISAMBIGUATION and WP:PRIMARYTOPIC say follow topic not title. In ictu oculi (talk) 05:44, 13 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I highly doubt that the song is the topic a reader seeks when they type "God and Satan", unless this is a high trafficked article, which apparently it is not. The dab page can be obviously expanded, BTW. Khestwol (talk) 14:00, 14 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose, per comments above. The song itself uses a '&', so the title here is actually inaccurate. Randy Kryn 14:17, 14 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. A song (where there is dispute over the stylization of the name) by a barely known artist should, in Wikipedia, take precedence over a theological concept that has been around of thousands of years! It is a sadness that there isn't an article about the theological concept. --Richhoncho (talk) 09:18, 19 July 2015 (UTC). Changed vote to what I actually meant. --Richhoncho (talk) 10:13, 19 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please fix the song title first. Apparently it doesnt use "and". Khestwol (talk) 19:46, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
