Mini Metro (game) → Mini Metro (video game) – Please place your rationale for the proposed move here. --Relisted. George Ho (talk) 04:17, 11 May 2015 (UTC) Anarchyte (talk) 09:05, 4 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Move – per #2 at WP:NCVGDAB --The1337gamer (talk) 21:24, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
 * My initial reaction was to Support move per WP:NCVGDAB, but then I notived moved it from (video game) to (game) in May 2014, so I'm curious to hear their thoughts on this. ☺ ·   Salvidrim!   ·  &#9993;  18:43, 10 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Oh, nothing, just WP:CONCISE. But I would oppose this move for the same reasons. Red Slash 22:43, 10 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Alright, well, that being said, I still support a move, per WP:NCVGDAB. Video game articles mistakenly disambiguated with (game) are routinely moved to (video game) with or without a RM. ☺ ·  Salvidrim!   ·  &#9993;  04:24, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Support is appears that NCVDABS is the standard here and I don't see why this should be an exception. it should be noted that an attempt to move the video game 2048 failed to have it moved from (video game) for that very reason.--70.27.228.231 (talk) 00:44, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

Mini Metro (video game) → Mini Metro – The latter is currently a redirect, and the disambig page doesn't have much on it, as "Minimetro" is what is being disambiguised – Nixinova ⟨T|C⟩ 21:04, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Support as a more WP:CONCISE name. -KAP03(Talk &bull;&#32;Contributions &bull;&#32;Email) 21:08, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Mini Metro is a disambig page with 3 choices. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 20:24, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Well, move that page to Mini Metro (disambiguation). -KAP03(Talk &bull;&#32;Contributions &bull;&#32;Email) 20:26, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment Here's a |Mini_Metro_(video_game)|Mini_Metro_(disambiguation)|MiniMetro|Austin_Metro link to pageviews. The dab page Mini Metro was a redirect until earlier today, so there's little surprise that it doesn't show anything. Going by those views, the Austin Mini is clearly the primary topic. The question is whether Mini Metro should redirect to Austin Metro or not, and that can only be determined by those who know how commonly the car is known by this term. Hence, my contribution is a mere comment; I let others vote! who know more about the topic.  Schwede 66  09:18, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment the game is the clear primary topic on google web search, but the car is the clear primary topic for book searches - which is not suprising given the difference in age/eras for the topics. I'm leaning towards primary disambiguation, but not firmly (at the moment). Thryduulf (talk) 18:16, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose I agree that "Mini Metro" should either be a disambiguation page, or should be pointing to the Austin Mini. This page on the game is fine where it is. --M ASEM (t) 18:23, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Why should it point to the Austin Mini? It is a prior name; the game is now the primary topic. Mini Metro - the game. MiniMetro - the people mover systems. Austin Metro - that. This is all fine; have hatnotes; they are all different. – Nixinova ⟨T|C⟩ 19:48, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Why, because of this. This kind of search is how we establish notability in objective reality, so we don't get 10 gamers saying one thing and 10 car owners saying another. In ictu oculi (talk) 02:59, 6 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Strong Oppose, no one ever referred to Mini Metro as "Austin Mini", Mini Metro is the Mini Metro and should redirect to the car. Is the game even notable? In ictu oculi (talk) 02:02, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Mini Metro (video game) → Mini Metro – I think that the additional disambiguation is not required because there is no other article with the exact match. We have MiniMetro, about the people mover. Also, the mini Metro dab is not even mentioned in the light rail page so not sure why its listed in the dab article. There is a discussion about the same thing, but its been 6 years and its been more than reasonable enough time to request another one. A case of WP:DIFFCAPS and WP:SMALLDETAILS may apply here. A dab page may not be necessary so could be a case of G14ing it. JuniperChill (talk) 00:28, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Austin Metro has more views (5,331) than the video game (1,167) and was called "Mini Metro", MiniMetro has 397[] and readers looking for that may well use to words as the normal format.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 19:54, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose While a realively well known video game in the video game world, it doesn't the name recognition that would elevate it above the other topics at the disambiguation page. --M asem (t) 20:42, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I clearly stated that the dab page doesn't contain any other matches of 'Mini Metro' so it should be named without any disambiguation. If they are not looking for the video game, then that is what the hatnote is for. This reminds me of the situation at Sun Haven where again, other than the dab page, there is no proper article with that name, and all of it has a disambiguator but the video game with that name has since been deleted. Also, Empire of Sin video game can be named that way since the dab page doesn't list any others with the exact name. This is why I proposed this rename move thing. JuniperChill (talk) 21:50, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
 * >"the dab page doesn't contain any other matches of 'Mini Metro'" That is false. Austin Mini Metro and MiniMetro are clearly legitimate topics that can be referred to as "Mini Metro".  See WP:DPT. 162 etc. (talk) 22:01, 29 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Oppose. The Austin Metro was once almost universally referred to as the Mini Metro (I'm old enough to remember it being!). I would go so far as to say that should be a primary redirect. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:45, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
