Is this the same Him known for "Funeral of Hearts" and "Sacrament"? Mike Church 04:13, 13 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Definitely not. We need disambiguation here. The HIM you mention could go on a different page: HIM (Finland) --Iceager 02:51, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Moved the page to the correct capitalisation. — g026r 21:57, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

That said, I'm not sure this is the best choice. I'm thinking that perhaps something like is being done for the various bands called X might be best: move HIM (band) to HIM (Finnish band) and HiM (band) to HiM (US band), with HIM (band) left as a disambiguation page. I think I may drop a note on the other band's talk page, and see what opinion is there. — g026r 04:43, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

By the way, HIM is in all actuality neither goth or melodic metal, and just as well they are not H.I.M., the name is not an acronym, at least according to everything ive seen of them. James Castle 01:40, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disambiguating

In my opinion, and as you can see, the finnish band HIM have more information than the othe two bands, I think it's not a reasonable disambiguation solution to put one deliberately as the main one. I think there should be a siambiguation page for the three options.

Anyone agrees? --KeyStorm 15:20, 28 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Yes. In fact, I think the Finnish band deserves the main article, in that it's better done and they're the better known one. -RomeW 01:30, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
