replies: text: Top Speed →  – Surprisingly, we don't have an article about "Top speed", "Maximum speed" or "Maximum velocity". Still, even without an appropriate target, this film isn't the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, and most users will be surprised to be redirected to this film when looking for an article about the general concept. I propose renaming this one and redirecting to Speed, placing there a  hatnote that links to the eponymous film. PanchoS (talk) 16:44, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

What makes y'all assume that the generic term "top speed" means cars?
*  redirects to V speeds, which is about aircraft
*  redirects to Terminal velocity which is about the physics of falling objects (my physics is very rusty, but I think there's a difference between speed and velocity)
* Why would Production car speed record be the primary topic over something like List of vehicle speed records or Fastest animals?
* At least Top Speed  the name of the film. wbm1058 (talk) 03:54, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

text: What makes you assume I'd fully agree with the new target? IMHO, we need a disambiguation page. --PanchoS (talk) 04:32, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

replies: text: Awesome. I expanded it and retargeted Top speed (with lowercase "s") to point there, too. Now we might want to move the DAB page altogether to the lowercase form. Otherwise, I guess we're done. --PanchoS (talk) 13:04, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Not quite. Observe the  tag. There are a ton of links intended for the 1930 film that need to be disambiguated now. You might be surprised at that, with an old film like this that few alive today have likely ever seen or heard of, but all the actors who appeared in the film, the directors and producers, etc. – most of them have links to the film. I'll get to work on it. WP:NAVPOPS is very helpful for this, when configured to highlight links to disambiguation in yellow. Try to get this fixed before the good folks at WP:WikiProject Disambiguation get annoyed at us ;) They generally prefer that such disambiguation is done before the page is moved, but I think it's often easier if done afterwards, as long as it's done promptly. wbm1058 (talk) 13:27, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

message: Clicking on Laura Lee in the cast of this movie takes you to the page on Laura Lee the soul and gospel singer/songwriter, not that of the actress born in 1910. There's no disambiguation option at the top. I saw the earlier comment about disambiguation links, but I'm not sure it referred to this. Grammarspellchecker (talk) 09:51, 9 September 2016 (UTC)
