– Since this disambiguation page's first entry — Lion's share — uses the lowercase form, the main title header could be also in lowercase, thus enabling the move of The Lion's Share (1971 film) → The Lion's Share. This film's title represents English Wikipedia's sole header bearing this exact form, thus obviating need for the parenthetical qualifier "(1971 film)". Likewise, Lion's Share (band) is the sole such header — no need for the qualifier "(band)". Hatnotes atop all the standalone articles would, of course, point to The lion's share dab page. — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 18:41, 10 April 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

 * The Lion's Share → The lion's share
 * The Lion's Share (1971 film) → The Lion's Share
 * Lion's Share (band) → Lion's Share
 * Oppose, these topics can easily be confused with each other, SMALLDETAILS are insufficient disambiguation. The lion's share should probably redirect to lion's share. 162 etc. (talk) 20:46, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose 2nd and 3rd. Maybe the 1st should be moved to Lion's share (disambiguation) per WP:DABNAME since the generic and band don't use "The".  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 21:39, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Support this, DAB should be at Lion's share, and the other 2 pages left as is.--Ortizesp (talk) 12:44, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose the second and the third. Support to move The Lion's Share → Lion's share (disambiguation). Cfls (talk) 15:18, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Just adds ambiguity. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:11, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Relisting comment: relisted to give time for consideration of Crouch, Swale's alternative proposal, otherwise this looks like a "not moved" or "no consensus" closure ASUKITE  19:04, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Oppose for the reasons already mentioned, and add that the first entry, insofar as it refers to a specific fable, probably should be treated as a proper noun and capitalized, if it's typically used as the fable's title in English. I note that it says the same motif occurs in other fables, so I'm not sure whether this is the case.  Smalldetails are sometimes sufficient to distinguish between titles, but here all capitalizations with or without "the" are likely to be assumed to lead to the fable or proverb, so that it or the disambiguation page are likely the best targets.  Neither the film nor the band are remotely as well-known.  P Aculeius (talk) 09:48, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Move the disambiguation page to Lion's share (disambiguation), but keep everything else pointed there. BD2412  T 19:52, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
