- The Show Must Go On (Queen song) → The Show Must Go On (song)
- The Show Must Go On (Shirley Bassey album) → The Show Must Go On (album)
– Per here and here, of all the articles about songs named "The Show Must Go On", Queen's song is very evidently the most popular, well-known, and notable. Likewise, when it comes to articles about albums named "The Show Must Go On", Shirley Bassey's album is the most popular, at least when it comes to history and longevity, per here and here. Yeah, the Four Tops albums starts spiking a bit in popularity by the end, but for the most part Bassey's album is more popular and often searched.

- Oppose. Creation of incomplete disambiguations is not helpful to users. Since this nomination has been positioned upon the talk page of The show must go on (disambiguation) page where all the other entries are uppercase while The Show Must Go On redirects to the lowercase putative WP:PRIMARYTOPIC — the relatively brief entry for The show must go on — this may present an opportunity to suggest an RM for The show must go on (disambiguation) → The Show Must Go On. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 08:47, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
- There is a WP:DIFFCAPS problem here. Thev broad concept is at the correct title The show must go on, but as @Roman Spinner: correctly notes, the disambiguation page really ought to be at The Show Must Go On. That leaves the Queen song, which is overwhelmingly the primary topic – see [1]. So while I support The Show Must Go On (Queen song) → The Show Must Go On (song), I also encourage an alternative proposal of The show must go on (disambiguation) → The Show Must Go On (disambiguation) and → The Show Must Go On (Queen song) → The Show Must Go On. I oppose moving The Show Must Go On (Shirley Bassey album). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 12:04, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
- I see your point and actually agree with the moving of this current DAB page to capitalized The Show Must Go On. However, is it possible to add that move request even though I've already started the discussion and used the template? Turtletennisfogwheat (talk) 12:43, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
