There should be a mention of their anthem, "Hot Knife Boogie". (I think that's on /Live/.) It's certainly their most famous song. - George Dance —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.244.158.223 (talk) 22:05, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The Good Brothers → The Good Brothers (band) – The Good Brothers (professional wrestling) have been using that name for over two years now, most recently in WWE, and this appears to be a WP:NOPRIMARY situation. The Good Brothers can become a primary redirect to the dabpage at Good Brothers. 162 etc. (talk) 02:00, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Good Brothers and The Good Brothers are two separate non-identical titles, so no need to move this article. Just move Good Brothers (professional wrestling) to Good Brothers and make sure each has a {{distinguish}} hatnote pointing to the other. Station1 (talk) 06:07, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That's not sufficient disambiguation. They're referred to in reliable sources as (capital T) The Good Brothers.[1] [2] 162 etc. (talk) 18:15, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The different titles along with hatnotes are sufficient disambiguation. If you were proposing to move the wrestling team to The Good Brothers, this would be a different discussion, but as long the wrestling team is at Good Brothers, there's no reason the band can't be at its actual name. The hatnotes do literally everything a two-entry dab page would do, without inconveniencing readers who are already at the article they want. Station1 (talk) 08:17, 14 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Neither topic is primary, both subjects can verifiably be shown to use "The" (or not), and two-topic dabpages are explicitly recommended by the guideline WP:NOPRIMARY. 162 etc. (talk) 17:01, 14 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If the best article titles for each of two different topics are different from each other, which one is "primary" is a moot point. If you are saying the best title for the wrestling team is The Good Brothers, than that article would be the primary topic for the term and should be moved there, with the band being moved as proposed. But if The Good Brothers is not the best article title for the wrestling team, then we have no problem. Both can coexist at their respective best titles.

Oppose as proposed, but would support Good Brothers (professional wrestling) → Good Brothers and would likewise support deletion of the two-entry Good Brothers disambiguation page and distinguishing one page from the other via hatnotes, per Station1. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 16:04, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
