– There may in fact be a case to be made that the album should be deleted outright, as it is neither making nor reliably sourcing any discernible claim of notability at all besides existing. However, the film is clearly much more reliably sourced as having a significantly stronger notability claim, so it should be the primary topic here. Note that the film's article is newly created today, so comparing pageview stats won't be a helpful measure. Bearcat (talk) 21:29, 27 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Not sure. I can see a weak argument in favour of this, but I'm not keen on the idea of a newly created article making a grab for the primary topic like this. The film in question is 4-5 years old but has only had an article created now, so that doesn't suggest a great deal of interest. On the other hand, one can't really judge the notability of the album on the content (or lack thereof) in the Wikipedia article, or given it's mid 90s release on the availability of online sources. That said, Google does turn up a few sources, this from the Washington Post [1], Billboard chart history [2], and a few hits on Google Books [3], [4], so there's clearly scope to improve that article should anyone wish to. Any harm in leaving it six months and looking at the page view stats then? PC78 (talk) 23:38, 27 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move To Russia with Love to To Russia with Love (album) as clearly not the primary topic, and disambiguate for a while. After a few months we we'll be armed with pageview statistics and can revisit making the film primary topic. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:07, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move album and disambiguate for now. I agree with the above two comments. This can be revisited in a few months. Station1 (talk) 04:41, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move album, oppose film move - per WP:NOPRIMARY. I feel also there is a lot of potential confusion with "From Russia with Love" titles as well. -- Netoholic @ 07:54, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move album, oppose film move - per WP:NOPRIMARY. Agree with above, avoid primary use given the amount of other similar titles. Britishfinance (talk) 15:05, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move album, oppose film move - per WP:NOPRIMARY. In ictu oculi (talk) 06:38, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Bearcat: you can add poster https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4175108/mediaviewer/rm319492352 with WP:FILEUPLOADWIZARD In ictu oculi (talk) 07:14, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Or just do it yourself? PC78 (talk) 14:43, 1 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
