Re: → Re: (music project) — The common usage of "re:" is in email, this title should redirect to RE (e-mail). 65.94.45.160 (talk) 12:38, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Support: Seems like a reasonable assumption that most people will be looking for information about the email notation. –CWenger ( ^ •  @ ) 20:17, 23 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Oppose. A more consistent name for the article would be Re: (band).  The (band) is a long held disambiguator for article names.  I'll support a move to Re: (band).  Argolin (talk) 23:22, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Discussion

 * Any additional comments:
 * Would modifying the hatnote on this article to include a direct link to RE (e-mail) be a workable compromise? Powers T 14:31, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Not really, since the music thing is not the topic that should reside at this name, the email topic is, moving the email article here would be ok though. 65.94.45.160 (talk) 07:33, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Not really as "re:" is used in communications such as letters - you know, using a pen/printer and paper? for all of you under the age of 25, the common usage of re; is not emails as they are not the only form of written communications.
 * I would love to see someone try and prove that though, imagine counting all the letters and emails sent all over the world in the last year that had re: in them just to show that there were more in emails...cu in 5yrs sukr lol Chaosdruid (talk) 20:35, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Either way, it's not this music thing. Do we have an article on memos using "re:"? 65.94.45.160 (talk) 05:42, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
