The result of the move request was: Move. Capitalization can be acceptible for disambiguation purposes, and the fact that the proposed title is still a red link suggests it will work here. Cúchullain t/ c 04:36, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Street Gang (book) → Street Gang – As Street Gang currently red links, there is no reason to parenthetically disambiguate with (book). In support of this, the example Baby Grand, which has the hat note, For the musical instrument, see Piano. A hatnote, For groups of individuals who share a common identity, see Gang. should be sufficient. Wbm1058 (talk) 21:22, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
 * It should be noted that Street gang redirects to gang. The question here would be is someone typing Street Gang looking for the book or info on gangs?--70.49.83.129 (talk) 21:35, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I wonder if the solution would be re-name this article Street Gang: The Complete History of Sesame Street. Yes, it's long, but I, who named this article in the first place and added the "(book)" part of the current title to differentiate it from gang, no longer have an issue with longer titles, especially if it helps searches.  This way, a search for "Street Gang Sesame Street" brings one to this article. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 21:47, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Also note that Street Gangs redirects to River City Ransom, and in a just-closed RM for Don't Eat the Pictures, there was no consensus for including the subtitle. But I also support Street Gang: The Complete History of Sesame Street as an improvement over the current title. Why would someone looking for information on generic street gangs bother to use the shift key to type in a proper name? Wbm1058 (talk) 01:08, 2 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Oppose it should redirect to gang as street gang does. -- 76.65.131.79 (talk) 22:22, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
