Behind the bar

Listed as an EP, it’s actually an album. A 7 track album. Boscaswell talk 21:14, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Boscaswell: I just went off what sources say. If you Google Behind the Bar, and more specifically search "Behind the Bar EP", most country news sources (even blogs, from what I can see) refer to it as an EP. If it's determined to be a seven-track studio album by others, it's not a big deal to me. Ss112 23:08, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Ss112: I was going by the review here: https://www.savingcountrymusic.com/album-review-riley-greens-behind-the-bar/ But, seriously, I’m sure that you know a lot more about the subject than me! All the best. Boscaswell talk 23:41, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

– The singer's page has 104 inbound links and a daily average of 1400 page views a day. Riley Green, Lancashire has 68 inbound links and about two page views a day. From these numbers, I think it's clear by a wide margin that almost anyone looking for "Riley Green" on Wikipedia is looking for the singer. The Lancashire landmark and the identical sounding Riley Greene are both plausible for a dab, so I propose that the singer be made the primary topic and, optionally, that the other two items listed at Riley Green (disambiguation) instead.

I support this. There's already a comma with "Lancashire" after the location's name anyway, so it isn't even completely identical as it is, and it's clear the singer is the primary use of the title. CloversMallRat (talk) 19:38, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support The singer's page is way more popular, so it makes sense to make his page the main one. Waqar💬 17:32, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. Number of page views and inbound links makes sense to have this be primary topic. --Caldorwards4 (talk) 01:28, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support - definitely the more common article than the place in Lancashire. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 15:47, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
