Pa Mis Muchachas → Pa' Mis Muchachas – Pa is apocope of para, so the correct spelling of the title is "Pa' Mis Muchachas". The absence of apostrophe may be considered as stylization. 7szz (talk) 03:50, 2 March 2022 (UTC) — Relisting.🐶 EpicPupper(he/him | talk) 05:02, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose no evidence given that the song's name is written with an apostrophe on other sources or websites. SuperΨDro 14:17, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: the nominator is right about the shortening of the word "para", and yes, theoretically this should contain an apostrophe to be grammatically correct. But we aren't here to correct spelling mistakes, deliberate or otherwise. The R.E.M. album Lifes Rich Pageant quite obviously should contain an apostrophe to be grammatically correct, but for whatever reason, it doesn't, and reliable sources have always used the title without the apostrophe. Similarly, any name or title made up of initials should have a point after each initial, but it's becoming quite common now to drop the point after the last letter, for example the singer T.O.P – again, his name is a stylization and not grammatically correct, but it's what most reliable sources use. The same applies here. Richard3120 (talk) 16:27, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. While I understand the editor's rationale, coverage about the song does not use the apostrophe. I agree with Richard3120's points about this discussion. Aoba47 (talk) 13:39, 21 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
