Critical reception - "rave reviews" or "positive"?
[edit]Fellow Editors,
The Critical reception section currently has New Bermuda was met with rave reviews from music critics
as the lead sentence. Concerned about the interaction with WP:PEACOCK, I amended this from "rave reviews" to "positive reviews"; it has since been changed back.
Would interested editors please opine on which of the two phrasings is best, or on any alternative?
Absent any additional opinions, based on WP:PEACOCK, I will re-amend in a few days. - Ryk72 'c.s.n.s.' 02:42, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

New Bermuda (album) → New Bermuda – A disambiguation page was created, however there is only one subject under this name with an existing article: the album. The album article should be moved to New Bermuda and a hatnote should be placed for the other subjects that don't have articles themselves but are mentioned briefly on other articles about other topics. Something to the affect of: For proposed colonial American settlements with the name New Bermuda, see Thomas Dale and John William Gerard de Brahm. Fezmar9 (talk) 21:49, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose please see WP:Disambiguation. I don't know whether this non-charting death-metal album's title is related to Thomas Dale's New Bermuda, Virginia settlement, today Bermuda Hundred, or whether it's completely random, but "existing article" is not a rationale according to how WP:DISAMBIGUATION works, the guideline clearly says that we disambiguate by topic not title. Google Books has 100+ refs to "New Bermuda" being the original name (original after evicting the original Indian owners of course) of Thomas Dale's plantation at Bermuda Hundred, Virginia. If anything "New Bermuda" should redirect to "Bermuda Hundred", or as Triviapedia maybe it is our duty to put a non-charting recent death-metal album in the way of anyone trying to find out about early native-American and colonialist history of Virginia?

- Oppose - per WP:DISAMBIGUATION, particularly WP:ONEBLUELINKDAB; do not consider that this topic is overwhelming WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. - Ryk72 'c.s.n.s.' 06:43, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
