Give me a fucking break! Radiopathy •talk• 23:47, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
Can there please be clarification about the article title? The official title is "Death on Two Legs (Dedicated to)", however the title used is just "Death on Two Legs". Several disambugation links say "Death on Two Legs (Dedicated to)", so can we please clear this up? Thank you. 67.54.187.27 ( talk) 01:08, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: moved per nominator, without capitalising the last word. -- BrownHairedGirl (talk) • ( contribs) 17:22, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
Death on Two Legs →
Death on Two Legs (Dedicated to...) – Actual full title of song, like '
Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)'.

Support: The links always state "Death On Two Legs (Dedicated to...)" but they always redirect to "Death On Two Legs". We need to distinguish the two.-- 67.54.191.225 ( talk) 18:18, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
I've moved the page as to have the final word in the title capitalized per the Manual of Style, as the years-old move discussion above just decides to unilaterally throw the MOS out entirely, which is not allowed (that's why it's a style guide) and has no particular justification here.

Death on Two Legs (Dedicated to...) → Death on Two Legs (Dedicated To...) – There seems to be considerable editor blindness to the part of MOS:5LETTER that states the final word of a work's title is capitalized, even if it would otherwise not be. Remsense 留 07:38, 7 December 2023 (UTC) This is a contested technical request ( permalink). UtherSRG (talk) 12:20, 7 December 2023 (UTC)

Death on Two Legs (Dedicated to...) → Death on Two Legs – WP:CONCISE, MOS:SUBTITLE, WP:COMMONNAME. As can be seen from the label on the vinyl single as shown at the top of the article, the parenthesized phrase is often omitted from the name of this topic. This would also resolve the question about capitalization of the trailing parenthesized preposition. This would revert an RM move of 12 April 2014. The proposed title already redirects to this longer one. — BarrelProof ( talk) 15:19, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
