– There is no indication that the film is a proper "primary topic" for "I Am Waiting". Its article has only about one-fourth as many page views as the Rolling Stones song, and nothing in the article indicates greater historical importance. Either the song should be at the base name or the base name should lead to a disambiguation page. —BarrelProof (talk) 17:13, 18 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support 1st, but not second. Disambig page is best; no primarytopic. Dicklyon (talk) 19:26, 18 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support both per nom, provided incoming links are cleaned up after the move. The film's article is currently at the base title only because it happened to be written first. (I oppose a dab page, however. Per WP:TWODABS, there's no benefit to that.) Station1 (talk) 19:30, 18 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
TWODABS doesn't apply here, and even if it did TWODABS does not oppose dabs with two entries. In ictu oculi (talk) 17:46, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
TWODABS does oppose dabs with two entries when there is a primary topic. Whether there is a primary topic in this case is a matter for discussion, but I think the song qualifies. Far more important than a guideline, however, is that a dab page would give no added value over a hatnote. It just means an extra click for a few people who'd get straight to their article otherwise.

Exactly which is why saying "per TWODABS" doesn't apply in this case. Have you not looked at the dab page since yesterday? In ictu oculi (talk) 16:53, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Complete unrelated subject from different nations, readers from each nation would be astonished to arrive at the wrong article. Support a DAB page. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 02:27, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support 1st, but oppose second, move I Am Waiting (disambiguation) over baseline. In ictu oculi (talk) 17:35, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for creating that dab page, which didn't exist when I submitted the RM request. Especially since you have found ten topics for disambiguation, I agree. —BarrelProof (talk) 17:55, 21 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
