Untitled
I guess all other uses are derived from the old poem, maybe this should be investigated...

 * Phantasmagoria (disambiguation) → Phantasmagoria
 * Phantasmagoria → Phantasmagoria (horror theatre)
 * |Phantasmagoria_(video_game)|Phantasmagoria_(poem)|Phantasmagoria_(The_Damned_album)|Phantasmagoria_(Curved_Air_album)|Phantasmagoria_(band) Pageviews. The August 2018 spike for Phantasmagoria (video game) is from being the featured article of the day. Not sure about the smaller spike 2 months later on Phantasmagoria. I don't see how WP:NOTDICT is relevant to this case. Phantasmagoria seems to me like a legitimate encyclopedic topic, not just a word. Colin M (talk) 05:30, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, it's a legit topic. I just meant that being the definition of the word doesn't make it primarytopic. Dicklyon (talk) 21:38, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Every later use of the word "Phantasmagoria", mainly as a title, seems to have been inspired by the original horror theatre shows. Usually such a title seems to be chosen as an obvious reference to that type of show. Therefore I think it makes more sense to keep it as it is. Joortje1 (talk) 11:14, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
 * That's not among the criteria at WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. It's clearly not even close to half the page views, so disambiguation seems a better choice. Dicklyon (talk) 21:38, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Strong oppose Primary topic by longterm significance.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 06:06, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose. All others seem derivative.  Disambiguation pages should be suffixed with "(disambiguation)" to indicate what they are.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 05:23, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
