Griddy (dance) → Griddy
Griddy → Griddy (company)

– I have requested to move this article due to this article about the griddy dance being more notable than the former energy company. Comparing page views between the two articles since the beginning of the year shows that the 'Griddy (dance)' article is significantly more notable as page views are in the hundreds daily, while the 'Griddy' article rarely reaches twenty page views. In addition, simple searches of 'griddy' on Bing and Google bring up exclusively articles about the dance. BullDawg2021 (talk) 05:23, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not exclusively, no -- my google search for griddy included such entries as this CNN article and this Texas Tribune article, both about the energy company, among the ~120 results before it says "In order to show you the most relevant results, we have omitted some entries very similar to the 120 already displayed." But the majority of the results are about the dance. However, that is a sign of the weakness of modern Google... if I search for griddy electric I get 140 results before being told that the results are duplicates, and almost all of those are about the company. (That's not an argument against moving the page, just against that lump of evidence.) My only concern about the move is that both of these are fleeting topics... the company having already fleeted (peaked at over 1800 page views on 2/27/2021) and the dance fleeting (peaked at 6350 on 11/25/2022) with daily averages for this month being a bit less than half for the same month last year. It would be nice to have a crystal ball to see a few years down the road on how things settle. --Nat Gertler (talk) 14:10, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support, and move Griddy to Griddy (company). No evidence that the short-lived energy reseller is particularly notable. 162 etc. (talk) 17:03, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Added associated move per 162 etc. Rotideypoc41352 (talk · contribs) 17:20, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom, although I'm not opposed to a DAB at base name.--Ortizesp (talk) 07:26, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Strong support the dance has 19,554 views compared with only 423[[1]] for the company and the dance is also likely primary by long-term significance. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:22, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support 2nd move per nom, but slightly Oppose 1st move. Like, I think the safest bet might be having a disambiguation page at the basename. Paintspot Infez (talk) 17:35, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Is the griddy a proper noun

I have noticed "griddy" to be capitalised mid-sentence a few times and am wondering if it is a proper noun due to this. 216.145.71.139 (talk) 20:01, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
