I Hate Music: A cycle of Five Kid Songs for Soprano and Piano → I Hate Music (song cycle) – The shorter title is more commonly used than the current one, especially in recent articles. Current title is too long; parenthetical disambiguation is more suitable. George Ho (talk) 23:31, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

that is already taken, support suggested move --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:03, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
For some reason, this month-old article jumped to 4000 views yesterday.[1] I have no idea why, but if it continues, this certainly should be moved to I Hate Music as the primary topic. Otherwise, it should be moved to I Hate Music!: A Cycle of Five Kid Songs [2] [3] per WP:NATURAL, since legitimate subtitles are preferable to artificial qualifiers. - Station1 (talk) 18:36, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The simple reason is exposition on the Main page as an April Fool joke (see above), - no trend. Another possibility would be I hate music (Bernstein), - I guess a search would rather be for a composer name than a genre or form. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:12, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, I see, thanks. In that case, I Hate Music!: A Cycle of Five Kid Songs is probably the most natural precise title. I Hate Music (Bernstein) would be a good redirect. But it will still be interesting to check pageviews in a month or two. Station1 (talk) 19:39, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support a move. Leaning towards "I Hate Music" as a primary topic (the disambiguation would then be moved to "I Hate Music (disambiguation)") but I have no real issue with "I Hate Music (song cycle)" either. Aza24 (talk) 23:14, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
