Motherless Brooklyn → Motherless Brooklyn (novel) – There may be a bit of recentism here, but the film has been getting about 9 times as many monthly page views as the novel, so most people looking for the title are not finding the subject they're wanting to read about. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 15:26, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nomination and also support creation of a Motherless Brooklyn disambiguation page that would list Motherless Brooklyn (novel) as well as Motherless Brooklyn (film). —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 17:43, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support per the nomination and I also agree that a disambiguation page would be ideal in this situation. Aoba47 (talk) 18:53, 3 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support for moving this article to the nominated title. Motherless Brooklyn should redirect to the movie, btw. No point in creating a disambiguation page where there are only two topics, one receiving clearly much more traffic than the other. No harm done if the occasional literature buff lands on the movie page and has to make one extra click. CapnZapp (talk) 17:54, 4 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
