The result of the move request was: not moved. clear consensus that the 2007 video game is a primary topic even for this disambiguated term (closed by non-admin page mover) Elli (talk | contribs) 16:40, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Portal (video game) →  – Current disambiguation is incomplete and conflicts with the 1986 game of the same name. Moving the page would remove the need for a hatnote on the pages. The older game is undoubtedly notable and got numerous magazine reviews.  ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 14:58, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

text: Oppose This Portal is far far more well-known and influential and clearly would be the game associated with "portal video game". I note the other was at "(interactive novel)" which avoided the conflict until Zxcvbnm just moved it now. --Masem (t) 15:20, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

text: Oppose per Masem. I am sure most of the people searching for Portal video game are looking for this page rather than the one about the game released in 1986. OceanHok (talk) 15:52, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

text: Support per nom. There really is no downside in making titles clearer to our readers, with the added benefit of verifying that incoming links do not go to the wrong page, when the page is already disambiguated. Readers are going to search for "Portal" and not "Portal (video game)" so the additional year doesn't impede any search. Gonnym (talk) 19:58, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

replies: text: Portal (video game) →  – for disambiguation relative to Portal (series) and other topics. The series is a video game franchise that includes other Portal video games including Portal: Still Alive and Portal 2 as well as the 2007 video game. There is also ambiguity with Portal (video game element) and Portal (1986 video game). This seems like it has similar issues as for the recent discussion that resulted in moving Donkey Kong (video game) to Donkey Kong (arcade game) after the discussion recorded at Talk:Donkey Kong (arcade game)#Requested move 17 April 2023 about ambiguity for its franchise. This article has only a 2:1 pageview ratio relative to the video game series article. A previous RM was closed as not moved on 6 March 2022, but ambiguity with the video game franchise article was not mentioned in that RM. If the just-closed RMs at Talk:Kingdom Come (German band)#Requested move 14 May 2023 and Talk:Yogi (2009 Tamil film)#Requested move 14 May 2023 indicate that 7:1 is not enough to justify a PDAB, then 2:1 surely isn't. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 17:02, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

message: I've recently created Regent Bakery and Cafe. I'm struggling with how to expand the entry re: Portal and the Internet meme The cake is a lie. Both articles reference Regent, and I'm confident all three topics should be covered in each, but I'm not exactly sure what's best. Hoping editors watching this page might be interested in helping out via article improvements and talk page feedback. Thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:47, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
