Talk:Max (American dog)

Requested move 26 February 2024

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved to Max (American dog). There was clear consensus to move the article away from its current title, but a wide variety of proposed destinations. Of these destinations, the strongest argument was advanced in favor of Max (American dog): it was noted that this style of disambiguation would be WP:CONSISTENT with the style used by Fido (Italian dog). (Max (American dog) also achieved the greatest amount of numerical support.) With both numbers and policy on the side of Max (American dog), I see this discussion as resulting in a consensus for that title.

I have chosen not to move Max (English Springer Spaniel), due to WP:RMCI; if participants wish to move that article to Max (British dog) or another title, they may open an RM at any time. (closed by non-admin page mover) ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 15:58, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

Max (dog) → Max (29-year-old dog) – Incomplete disambiguation with Max (English Springer Spaniel), Max (2015 film), and a character in How the Grinch Stole Christmas! (apparently). Some other options: Max (long-living dog), Max (geriatric dog), Max (terrier mix), (if we should be saying that in wikivoice), Max (dog, died 2013). None is perfect, but all better than the present title. Hameltion (talk &#124; contribs) 20:57, 26 February 2024 (UTC) The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it.

 * Move to Max (American dog), and the other one to Max (British dog), in the same vein as what we did recently with Fido (Italian dog). 162 etc. (talk) 23:00, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Move to Max (American dog) or Max (long-lived dog). —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 06:13, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Move to Max (American dog), Max (dog, born 1983), or Max (dog, died 2013). Max (English Springer Spaniel) could also be moved to Max (dog, born 2007) or Max (dog, died 2022). 176.33.244.31 (talk) 10:18, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Support Max (American dog), the American dog has 1,336 views but the film has 7,438 and the English Springer Spaniel has 258[|Max_(English_Springer_Spaniel)|Max_(2015_film)]. I wouldn't use the age as we would have to keep changing it every year per WP:CURRENTLY.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 20:35, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * The year in the title is odd and I think the nationality is the best for now - although a second American dog named Max meeting notability is an inevitability - but Max is dead, the year doesn't need to keep increasing. Traumnovelle (talk) 04:37, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment Max (long-lived dog) is a good phrasing. (American dog) technically works but is hardly a defining characteristic. Hameltion (talk &#124; contribs) 04:02, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
