Slap on (enemy)?[edit]

I've been making articles for DDR: Mario Mix songs after passing a proposal to do so. There's less overlap than I expected, actually, especially given each song has a "stage title" as well. There is a bit, though: One of the songs is called Deep Freeze.

Now, I put "(song)" on the end of the article title like the naming policy said I ought to, but that leaves what to do with this one. The policy is that if they're equally likely to be linked to or searched for, both get the identifier. Otherwise, the more popular one gets the identifier.

It's easy to call in the case of random stuff from the educational games and the DiC cartoons and the like, which is what I think that part of the policy is for so we don't end up having to put parentheses on everything 'cause of the likes of Shark, Fan, Feather, and Penny.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure this case is so clear-cut. I'm not going to try and argue the song deserves the full title, but I don't think DDR: Mario Mix is very comparable to the examples I just gave. I mean, yeah, it may be a song from a DDR crossover rhythm game handled by an outside developer... but this is an enemy from a Rabbids crossover strategy RPG developed by Ubisoft. I'm not really sure the gap between them is large enough for an impartial wiki to make the call here.

On the other hand, I may just be biased. I had DDR: Mario Mix as a kid, and I don't have Mario + Rabbids even now. So I didn't really want to do this move without getting a second opinion first. What do y'all think? Ahemtoday (talk) 16:00, July 19, 2023 (EDT)


I think putting on "(enemy)" would be good. I'll go change said page and add a disambiguating page. link:User:Sparks Sparks (talk) link:User:Sparks July 19, 2023, 4:22 PM (EST)
