– The title of Peter B. Kyne's oft-filmed 1913 novel is not Three Godfathers, but The Three Godfathers, as is the title of the 1916 film version, The Three Godfathers. The sole film version which bears the exact title Three Godfathers (film) is the 1936 one [which formerly bore the main header Three Godfathers (1936 film)]. The 1936 film should carry the same hatnote as the one atop the entry for the 1948 version, 3 Godfathers — For articles with similar titles, see Three Godfathers. If this nomination succeeds, those hatnotes would state, For articles with similar titles, see The Three Godfathers or possibly, For other film versions see The Three Godfathers. — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 05:11, 12 October 2019 (UTC) --Relisting.

 * Three Godfathers → The Three Godfathers
 * The Three Godfathers → The Three Godfathers (film)
 * Three Godfathers (film) → Three Godfathers
 * Support alternate move This is one of those times where WP:SMALLDETAILS is more confusing than helpful. I support creating a disambiguation page at The Three Godfathers per WP:NOPRIMARY, moving Three Godfathers to The Three Godfathers (novel), The Three Godfathers to The Three Godfathers (1916 film), Three Godfathers to Three Godfathers (1936 film), and 3 Godfathers to 3 Godfathers (1948 film).ZXCVBNM (TALK) 17:44, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
