Spelling of title[edit]

The film is at Super Fly (film). I noticed the spelling here was different, and moved it accordingly, but I suspect they should be the same. I would have written it as one word, despite the layout on the promo. Anyway, I think we should be consistent. - Jmabel | Talk 17:57, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think the two-word layout on the poster is just a style thing. The spine of the soundtrack CD as well as every mention of the title in the track listing and the liner notes are all single-word. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.102.118.211 (talk) 03:10, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

2004 rolling stone review[edit]

Good job Dan56 for cleaning up this article. I've always wanted to tackle it but..I got lazy. :) I removed the 2004 rolling stone review for this article. Only because it was a bit mis-leading. We'd need a page number for that cite to make it anything useful and it made it not clear which review (the original one, or the 2004 one) actually gave the five star rating. To make it more clear later, perhaps in the reception section something about that 5 star review should be added to that section. What does anyone else think? Andrzejbanas (talk) 17:06, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for incorporating the album review into the article, but that was only half the point. With that extra review, that makes 11 reviews in the infobox. That's a bit too many. Also, with that five stars it wasn't clear which review (the 2000's one or the 1970s one) is the 5 star review. The average reader of the article wouldn't know which is which. To make it clear, I've removed the 2004 link from the infobox. I hope there aren't any objections here! Andrzejbanas (talk) 19:25, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 23 January 2018[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: consensus to move the page, per the discussion below. Dekimasuよ! 20:54, 5 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Superfly (soundtrack) → Super Fly (soundtrack) – There does seem to be some ambiguity over the title; but this is the name used in a large majority of our sources; and is the name we use for the film this is the soundtrack to. It seems obvious that it should also be the name of this article - I don't think it's supportable to have the film at one name and its soundtrack at the other; unless the sources were overwhelming, which they aren't.

Support does seem to make sense to show some WP:CONSISTENCY, especially given album artwork. In ictu oculi (talk) 13:19, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support move as obviously noncontroversial. ONR (talk) 17:27, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
