JS → JS (disambiguation) – Also redirect JS → JavaScript and Js → JavaScript. JavaScript is clearly the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of the terms "JS", "Js" and "js". JavaScript is the most visited page on the page with over 100,000 monthly views. The second most visited is Sainsbury's with 44,000 monthly views. JScript gets 4,227 and JS (song) only gets 51. JavaScript gets the most back links with over over 111,111 links, Jiangsu gets the second most with 5,828 and JS (song) gets 11. This clearly shows that JavaScript is the primary and most visited page on this disambiguation page. – Brandon XLF  (talk) 02:57, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose There is the question of why someone would search for "JS" since "JavaScript" isn't that hard to remember or type in. It's probably best to leave it as a disabiguation per WP:AINTBROKE.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 13:59, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Probably mainly from seeing file names in a website's source code. Also a few libraries that include it in their name (Chart.js, Node.js, Vue.js, Three.js) although users of those libraries would likely know what a JS file is. – Thjarkur (talk) 14:26, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Note that .js redirects to JavaScript. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 21:31, 11 December 2019 (UTC)


 * (Weak) Oppose. Just because JavaScript has more page views than any other doesn't maske it primary topic of "JS". There's a lot of Japanes ships out there, too. (Note that I've moved Sainsbury's to the See also section: it isn't known as "JS" and JS isn't its parent company as asserted by the previous version of the page.)
