Rated "X"Rated "X" (song) – Primary topic status unclear relative to X rating. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 20:34, 30 December 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. BegbertBiggs (talk) 16:35, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose per WP:SMALLDETAILS since I do not agree due to the quotation marks. Steel1943 (talk) 00:19, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The quote marks are unsourced in the article. A cover of the song is on The Tigers Have Spoken, but without the quote marks (see here and here and in that article). Another cover was released as the B-side of "Hotel Yorba", but that article shows no quote marks. Allmusic has entries for Loretta Lynn versions both with and without the quote marks. I challenge you to do a web search for "Rated "X"" and see what pops up on your screen (especially with "Safe Search" disabled). —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 00:26, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Haha, I'll take your word for it. Either way though, that makes it seem like the preferred location would actually be Rated X (song) ... though I'm not sure about that option either because WP:NATURALDAB, but you may have already adequately refuted that point as well.

    I haven't given a lot of thought to whether the quote marks should be retained in the title or not. Certainly they are sometimes included by sources and at least sometimes shown on the record label. At this point I think they should be retained but the topic should be disambiguated. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 03:50, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom with or without quotes. In ictu oculi (talk) 17:35, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. The quote marks by themselves seem insufficient to make the subject clear, particularly given that they apparently aren't even applied consistently in reliable sources. ╠╣uw [talk] 11:43, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support moving the song, as it is plausible that the film rating could be referenced with the quotation marks as shown. BD2412 T 22:48, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
