– Ghastly (DJ) is the most searched "Ghastly" and should be the main title. - The   Magnificentist  10:06, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Ghastly → Ghastly (disambiguation)
 * Ghastly (DJ) → Ghastly
 * Oppose Is this a joke? In ictu oculi (talk) 16:20, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
 * This move is requested based on a similar page (Are You with Me) which had the general title moved to one with the "(disambiguation)" suffix and the article of a higher-searched topic was moved to the general title as discussed in the talk page. - The   Magnificentist  11:05, 25 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Support per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and WP:PTM (Partial Title Matches). Only one entity on the DAB page, the DJ, is actually called simply "Ghastly".  —  AjaxSmack   17:53, 25 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Oppose. Nowhere near well-known enough to be the primary topic for this common English word. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:23, 28 April 2017 (UTC)
 * What else on the DAB page is a contender? There are only four partial title matches. —  AjaxSmack   20:13, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Necrothesp. Common sense. The DJ might be a match, but he is clearly not what most people are going to be looking for when they search. They're likely looking for the wikitionary definition, which this page links to. TonyBallioni (talk) 21:49, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Why is that relevant? This is an encyclopedia, not a a dictionary or a search engine. —  AjaxSmack   22:05, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
 * We should strive to help the reader find what they want when they come here. This isn't a dictionary or a search engine, but we have a sister project that is a dictionary. If someone comes here looking for the dictionary definition, we should help them find it. The current setup works well for that. Moving an article about a DJ most people have never heard of to the primary topic doesn't help the reader at all. TonyBallioni (talk) 22:15, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I would presume that the primary topic of this term would be a missing topic on the concept of Ghastliness. bd2412  T 22:27, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
