Lil Boat → Lil Boat (mixtape) – "Lil Boat" is most often used to refer to Yachty himself, not this mixtape; move to make a primary redirect to Lil Yachty. 162 etc. (talk) 06:19, 16 February 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. BilledMammal (talk) 11:37, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Lil Boat is getting fewer pageviews than Lil Boat 2 or Lil Boat 3, which indicates few if any readers are expecting the article about Lil Yachty at this title. For the rare reader who might be, there is a hatnote to the rarely used dab page, as well as a direct link to Lil Yachty in the first sentence. Station1 (talk) 07:57, 16 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose As a casual I knew of Yachty, and I knew of this tape, but I didn't know that Yachty is supposedly better known as Lil Boat over the tape. I think this would probably be the case for most people. As Station1 says too, this article is about a work by Yachty so anyone who types in lil boat expecting him will still easily see him. --Quiz shows 15:34, 16 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support Lil Boat is an alter ego https://www.capitalxtra.com/features/facts/lil-yachty/lil-boat/ In ictu oculi (talk) 17:39, 16 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support Google returns the rapper who is probably primary by long-term significance but I'd probably put the DAB Lil Boat (disambiguation) here instead. Crouch, Swale (talk) 18:37, 16 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Another reference here. 162 etc. (talk) 23:55, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The first sentence of that article says he is "known to everyone as Lil Yachty". Station1 (talk) 11:18, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support. I echo Crouch, Swale's suggestion of creating a DAB page pointing to both Yachty and the mixtape. As Crouch states, I suspect Yachty is the primary topic for "Lil Boat" by significance – but at the same time, Lil Boat is not his common name, whereas the mixtape is titled "Lil Boat" exactly. Thus, I think a DAB will get readers to their destinations with the minimum amount of confusion. ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 15:47, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
