Requested move 9 April 2022
[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: Not moved. Local consensus here reflects broad community consensus that the proposed move would create unnecessary disambiguation; there is no other topic likely to be searched with “the ambulance”. I’m surprised to see support for such a move from nom and one editor, given their experience with titles on WP. (non-admin closure) В²C ☎ 06:43, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
The Ambulance → The Ambulance (film) – The main title header currently used for the 22-year-old film The Ambulance should redirect to the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC — Ambulance, especially in view of yesterday's scheduled release of Ambulance (film). — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 03:58, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
- What else is there called The Ambulance, the other film doesn't indicate it has the article though when discussing the term "ambulance" in a generic form it has "the" but not part of the name. In any case the 1990 one is also a film so The Ambulance (1990 film) if moved? Crouch, Swale (talk) 08:52, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
- Depending upon precedent and consensus, I would support either The Ambulance (film) / Ambulance (film) or alternatively The Ambulance (1990 film) / Ambulance (2022 film). —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 18:11, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
- Support per nom. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:00, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose since "The" is sufficient to disambiguate, especially considering there is no other topic called "The Ambulance". I find "The" to be a specific prompt in general. Pageviews here shows very little confusion to be had between the 1990 film and the 2022 film. Anyone who got confused is easily able to jump from here to there via the current hatnote.

- Oppose per Erik. "The Ambulance" is not a plausible search term for those looking for the information at Ambulance, nor is it a plausible wikilink target for same. Colin M (talk) 18:35, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose per Colin in any case per above it wouldn't disambiguate from the other film. Crouch, Swale (talk) 18:37, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
