Stills (disambiguation) → Stills – I don't think The Stills is an appropriate WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT given that film still and Stills (Stephen Stills album) are viewed more frequently than the band. Alternatively could point to Still (disambiguation) Nohomersryan (talk) 18:38, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom.--Ortizesp (talk) 00:03, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support but merge the two dabs to Still (disambiguation). In ictu oculi (talk) 08:03, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support, and ~~keep separate from~~ indifferent about merging with Still (disambiguation). older ≠ wiser 09:33, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Plurals usually redirect to the singular when there is a primary topic (here, Still). I support merging the two dab pages, and I agree that Stills should not redirect to The Stills. —BarrelProof (talk) 18:59, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support also Still gets 3,504 and Film still gets 1,973, more than the band's 704[[1]]. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:09, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - Stills should redirect to still as a simple plural redirect to its singular. -- Netoholic @ 20:52, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support and merge to Still (disambiguation). No primary topic. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:05, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect Stills to Still and merge Stills (disambiguation) into Still (disambiguation) (ie what others above said). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 19:20, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Stills should redirect to Still. I have no opinion on merging the two disambiguation pages. Steel1943 (talk) 22:03, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Current situation is ridiculous. But better still (sic) would be to merge the two DABS stills (disambiguation) and still (disambiguation) to the base name Still. Andrewa (talk) 05:17, 25 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
