Cosmic Music → ? – This article is about an album by John and Alice Coltrane, and I'm not sure it's the primary topic here. There's also a record label by the name (probably less well-known, but likely not much so), and there's also the redirect Cosmic Music (album), which leads to a teeny mention in a long list of Pink Floyd bootleg releases (though that's probably too obscure to matter here). There are also several major meanings of the term listed on the dab page cosmic music (though they're in lower case, so presumably less relevant). The absence of a primary topic is up for debate, but what I'm particuarly interested in is help in choosing the new title. Should it be Cosmic Music (album), which will necessitate the addition of a hatnote for the bootleg release, or should we try to use a maximally specific disambiguator, which will be tricky here)? – Uanfala (talk) 03:17, 30 January 2019 (UTC) --Relisting. SITH (talk) 12:03, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • cf Cosmic Music (disambiguation) In ictu oculi (talk) 08:03, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose, primary topic for this capitalization, over 1200 pageviews a month for the last year, and only 23 a month for the dab. Cosmic Music (album) should not redirect to the Pink Floyd. Dekimasuよ! 03:24, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Dekimasu, until a week ago this article didn't have a hatnote, so the dab page Cosmic music (in lower case) wasn't accessible to readers searching explicitly for this capitalisation. – Uanfala (talk) 03:30, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • Thank you for the clarification, but I do not find that to be sufficient reason to change the current setup. It still appears to me that this article has significant readership and is the primary topic for this capitalization. Dekimasuよ! 23:51, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Looking at those dab page entries I think the recently added hatnote is sufficient. PC78 (talk) 16:30, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
