Requested move

Oppose as utterly unhelpful. Unjustified by anything beyond implacable adherence to a principle elevated beyond its proper role, as one among many. See (of course!)
Afterlife (disambiguation), with its dozens of confusible entries.
In the real world of real readers, "afterlife" might turn up styled in all sorts of ways. The readers whose needs we serve are not disciples of
MOS:DAB or students of
WP:TITLE; they do not view Wikipedia through the same lens as we do. Let's achieve that insight, and apply it.
Comment Although I respect your opinion--and I expect others will agree with you--I disagree with your reasoning, and I resent a bit your assertion that my motive is slavish adherence to a guideline at the expense of users. This move would be helpful to those users who know the correct title of the film and type it in exactly, expecting to land on this article. Why penalize them by sending them to the dab page? Users who type in AfterLife by accident would be accommodated by the hatnote I suggested. How would you handle the case of the uniquely titled film
After.Life? Should that be disambiguated also? Of course there are many things titled Afterlife with a variety of capitalizations, spacings and punctuation, but using the natural disambiguation of unique titles, supported by a sensible system of hatnotes and a dab page, is, I think, an approach that serves users well.--

Oppose: agree with Powers. And there is a plethora of Afterlife (X) titles. Why on earth should this one be given the privilege of being unmarked? This "primary topic" notion is spinning out of control. Tony(talk)03:05, 3 January 2012 (UTC)reply
