Gilded LilyGilded Lily (comics) – Short-lived minor Marvel Comics character. Not WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. The main header should redirect to The Gilded Lily disambiguation page. Eight years ago, on May 6, 2010, the following text was added as the article's second paragraph and has remained to this day: "Disambiguate: silent film of 1921 starring Mae Murray; "1935 film starring Claudette Colbert" ; also, a Shakespearean phrase, from "To gild refined gold, to paint the lily/To throw perfume on a violet" (Salisbury: Act 4, Scene 2 of "King John")."     Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 00:16, 25 May 2018 (UTC)--Relisting.

  • Oppose. This is the only article currently on WP that needs the title "Gilded Lily". I've fixed that second paragraph by replacing it with a hatnote. Station1 (talk) 06:39, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support what articles have standalone titles is irrelevant. This is clearly not an absolute default topic. In ictu oculi (talk) 07:14, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support alternate move to Gilded Lily (character) as (comics) is only for publications, though this article should really be deleted as comic book fancruft rather than bothering with a requested move.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 11:43, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
For greater specificity, the qualifier "(comics)" is usually preferred to "(character)", which can be applicable to any media. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS in large numbers, with ten examples of characters among those solely under "B" — Balder (comics), Banshee (comics), Bastion (comics), Beast (comics), Billy Connors (comics), Bishop (comics), Black Dwarf (comics), Black Panther (comics), Blizzard (comics) and Blob (comics).    Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 14:54, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
