Talk:Calm

Requested move 1 April 2025

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: no consensus. This discussion primarily hinged on questions of WP:PT2, i.e., does the topic of calmness have enough long-term significance to overcome its pageview deficit against other topics? On this point, participants were divided; while some felt that calmness held that long-term significance due to its longtime relevance to human existence, others argued that the article was close to being a WP:DICDEF and that that status weakened its claim to encyclopedic significance. Both views achieved similar levels of support, suggesting that neither appears to have dominated the other. Consequently, no consensus emerged as to whether primary topic status had been achieved.

Calm → Calm (disambiguation) – Redirect to calmness as the primary topic. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 17:06, 1 April 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. Bobby Cohn (talk) 17:51, 8 April 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. Jeffrey34555 (talk) 20:51, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Calm (company) gets several times the pageviews of calmness. Calm (album) also gets more. Station1 (talk) 05:01, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. Very clear primary redirect per long-term significance. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:19, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I am skeptical of DICDEFy topics being primary by long-term encyclopedic significance, and believe that disambiguation is best here. How often does anyone need to link Calm referring to the concept of calmness? -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 19:27, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. Longterm significance criterion applies. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 00:11, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom and per Necrothesp and ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ above. Yes, calm (or calmness) as a psychological phenomena is an encyclopedic concept, and the clear primary one at that. BD2412 T 00:55, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose – no clear primarytopic. Dicklyon (talk) 05:20, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Station1 and King of Hearts. It's very unlikely readers would be seeking the calmness article, which frankly isn't even very well-written and "calmness" is not an encyclopedic concept really in the first place. WP:NOTDICT applies here. — Amakuru (talk) 05:46, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
