The result of the move request was: moved London BoyLondon Boy (mixtape) and London Boys (disambiguation)London Boy, left London Boys as no consensus for changing from primary topic for that title. If the Swift song is the primary topic for the singular, that would be another request. -- JHunterJ (talk) 15:15, 12 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]


– Please see the various topics listed at London Boys (disambiguation). None of these topics seem all that dominant. Is the recent mixtape that much more important than the David Bowie album and the Taylor Swift song? Is the pop duo that much more important than the four similarly-named songs that are all by very well known artists? Are the plurals and the use of "The" sufficiently distinctive? Personally, I didn't remember to look for "The" and a plural when I was reminded by Taylor Swift of Bowie's memorable and formative 1966 song. —BarrelProof (talk) 13:07, 29 September 2019 (UTC) --Relisting. Steel1943 (talk) 11:48, 8 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

We really need to undo that edit to WP:NCM, a very tiny local consensus there. In ictu oculi (talk) 13:10, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@In ictu oculi: An RFC that lasted 2 months in the talk page of said page and that was promoted in multiple pages is now local consensus? No. This is your typical "I don't like it" comment. Next time better say "pure rfcism", it goes straight to the point. © Tbhotch (en-3). 13:52, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
