Banshee (media player) → Banshee (software) – Consistency User:ScotXW^t@lk 16:08, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Support, the current title is needlessly specific, the only other Banshee software I know is Banshee (video game), which is already disambiguated sufficiently. JIP | Talk 17:06, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. A video game is a form of software, so the proposed new title could apply to the game. The current title is hardly any longer, so I see no reason to introduce avoidable ambiguity. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:18, 25 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Support
  concise and consistent disambiguators. The proposed title already redirects here. Video games are technically software, but we don't name them as such because that's a very unlikely way to search for information on a video game. --BDD (talk) 17:12, 26 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

• Oppose – per BrownHairedGirl: "software" would still be ambiguous. There's little reason for someone who runs across "software" as disambiguator to confidently infer that it doesn't apply to a video game, so it's still ambiguous. Also,
  WP:INCOMPDAB, and I will fix that. ENeville (talk) 19:31, 26 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

• Oppose per BrownHairedGirl. Disambiguating terms cannot be inherently ambiguous; otherwise, what's the point of them? "Software" is an ambiguous term with respect to video games, so it cannot be used to disambiguate from a video game. Xoloz (talk) 18:04, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
