[edit] Survey
- Add * '''Support''' or * '''Oppose''' on a new line followed by a brief explanation, then sign your opinion using ~~~~.
- Support - then this existing page should be redirected to Hole in one. BlueValour 04:24, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Support - except, per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (television)#Episode articles, the new name should be Hole in One (Only Fools and Horses). --Serge 21:58, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Support move to Hole in One (Only Fools and Horses) per Serge. —Wknight94 (talk) 22:17, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- For the record, I also vote to redirect Hole in One to Hole in one, not to the dab page. A search for "Hole in One" will be most likely for Hole in one, whether there's a capital O or not. —Wknight94 (talk) 01:46, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
- Support Hole in One should be a redirect to the disambiguation page, no to Hole in one, though. Hole in one (disambiguation) should link to Hole in One (Only Fools and Horses). Distinctions based on capitalization should not be the only differentiator in article titles. Nohat 23:28, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Support move to Hole inOne (Only Fools and Horses) per Serge, and support Nohat's disambiguation/redirect recommendation. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 00:54, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
- Support move to Hole in One (Only Fools and Horses). The title Hole in One (Only Fools and Horses episode) would be good too, but it should stay consistent with the way that the other disambiguated episodes in this series are named. As for the leftover title of Hole in One, it should be redirected to the disambiguation page. --Elonka 07:12, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Discussion
- Add any additional comments:
- Comment Hole in One (Only Fools and Horses) is the way current televison guideline say it should be disambiguated, however, the disambiguation may still be unnecessary as hole in one is not a proper noun and people probably won't be looking for it at Hole in One. Basically, I'm saying keep it here or move it to Hole in One (Only Fools and Horses), this is enough of a boarderline where I don't really care which. If this page is moved a agree with changing the redirect to the golf article. Jay32183 22:22, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- I considered that too but there is such a huge disparity between the two... If a new Wikipedia reader didn't know about the WP proper noun rule and typed "Hole in One" in the search and a TV episode article came up, they'd be baffled! I would be anyway... —Wknight94 (talk) 22:25, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- I just thought the point should be made. I won't argue for it or against a move to Hole in One (Only Fools and Horses). Jay32183 22:31, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

- Comment whoa, whoa, whoa! I created hole in one (disambiguation) because there are more than two existing articles. Haven't you forgotten Hole in One (pricing game)? --Gh87 02:23, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
- Then it's probably best to have Hole in One redirect to the dab page after the page move. Unless some one has a serious problem with it. Jay32183 03:19, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
- I'm against it. For both "Hole in One" and "Hole in one", it seems far more likely that the reader is searching for Hole in one. I'm not a big fan of redirects to dab pages in general - but esp. when a search differing only by the capitalization of a single letter leads somewhere else. I'd find that confusing now and I've been here over a year - I'd think a newbie would be very confused. —Wknight94 (talk) 04:10, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
- I'll agree with that. -- JHunterJ 11:57, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
- Agreed, as above Hole in One should redirect to Hole in one. BlueValour 16:37, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

- Comment Now the {{merge}} is added in both articles: "Hole in One" and disambiguation page. --Gh87 08:29, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
-
- Why are you proposing to merge the disambiguation page and the article about the Only Fools and Horses episode? Please remove the merge tag from the disambiguation page. -- JHunterJ 11:57, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

- I have removed the merge tags which are irrelevant to this discussion. BlueValour 16:34, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
