Requested move 17 January 2023
[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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The result of the move request was: Moved. Unanimous support. Move makes sense, Cumming has many notable stage performances which cannot be considered "filmography". Not much else to say.--Estar8806 (talk) 21:07, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
Alan Cumming filmography → List of Alan Cumming performances – Cumming is well-known for stage work, and this article covers 'Theatre' performances as well as film and television, so "filmography" (which only covers "filmed" works) is the wrong title here. Standard article title format in cases such as these is either "List of [name] performances" (e.g. List of Colin Firth performances) or "[Name] on stage and screen" (e.g. Jeremy Irons on stage and screen). I would be fine with either result here. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 20:19, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
- Support per nom. —El Millo (talk) 16:53, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
- Support as proposed. Would a video game fall under "screen"? Don't think so. Nohomersryan (talk) 03:44, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
- Video games and radio are "gray areas", but they are usually put under 'Filmography' too (i.e. are considered "filmed" or "broadcast" works). That's probably why some people don't like "filmography" as a title, and want to see all of these kinds of articles go to a "List of [x] performances" or "List of [x] credits" kind of title format – but that's a discussion for another forum. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 17:26, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
