High Potential (TV series) → High Potential – WP:DIFFCAPS and WP:PRIMARYTOPIC because of page views [1] [2] [3] [4]. Wiki Nav shows considerable usage. It is the only article with the title High Potential in the High potential disambiguation page. Theparties (talk) 18:49, 17 November 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

Comment: A show that aired two months ago is the primary topic of nothing. Gonnym (talk) 19:27, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support per DIFFCAPS. Can't say if it's the primary topic overall considering recentism, but diff caps is enough for me. A hat note will redirect any confusion. estar8806 (talk) ★ 01:34, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support per WP:DIFFCAPS. Only topic that is a proper noun, and the leader in page views overall by far nonetheless. Mdewman6 (talk) 08:33, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose "High Potential" Commonly refers to things other than the film. Kolano123 (talk) 18:01, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Like what? Other topics at High potential are lowercase, and have far fewer page views. Mdewman6 (talk) 00:43, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, I enjoy the show but the title should redirect to the disamb page where, arguably, the primary could be Intellectual giftedness (which is what the show is named for). Randy Kryn (talk) 23:45, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nomination, estar8806 and Mdewman6. No need for the parenthetical qualifier "(TV series)". A hatnote pointing to the lowercase High potential disambiguation page should indeed suffice. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 19:28, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per WP:PRITOP and ignoring WP:DIFFCAPS, because the issue here is dropping the parenthetical qualifier, not the words being proper nouns; similarly, a search would not care if it was all caps, all lowercase or mixed case.

While I can see that there is some sort of basis with option 1. in the db page notes under primary, there are three things to consider, 1., 2., and the last sentence.

The series is named after the real primary topic, that being high potential individuals. This would give it equal weight under 1. (usage), and so there is no primary topic.

Though there is no other page titled "high potential", it is the second most-used term for intellectual giftedness on our page, though maybe much more used in certain english-speaking countries like the UK, and is the phrase the TV series is named after. For example, the UK has a visa called HPI, the same as the French series HPI. The 2. case is obviously invalid, as it is a very recent page and tv series - so no long-term significance - whereas the phrase "high potential individual" HAS long-term significance.

The third sentence sort of says it all. It is not really the most obvious primary, due to several countries using HPI, and it is very recent. Overall I see nothing warranting the removal of this, nor the addition of disambig to the DB page. Revisit in six months once it is not WP:RECENTISM ??

Support. This article is getting thousands of hits per day. There is no other article using this title on WP, and even if there were, this would qualify under DIFFCAPS or PRIMARYTOPIC or both. Station1 (talk) 16:47, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support Per what Theparties and Station1 have said. Higher Further Faster (talk) 10:13, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per essentially every other "Support" above. —theMainLogan (t•c) 22:41, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per what Chaosdruid said. KnighsTalker (talk) 07:42, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support, mostly per the WikiNav, which shows that over 90% of users sent to the disambiguation page come to this TV show's article. The redirect at High Potential is currently a huge disservice to our readers. As for the arguments that gifted people are somehow the unambiguous primary topic, I think the objective data that less than 10% of users actually want to click on that link shows otherwise. If we're all going by our gut feelings, then I say Electric potential is the primary topic! Toadspike [Talk] 17:31, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per DIFFCAPS but hard to establish PT because of recintism. A hat note should then be added TiggerJay (talk) 07:11, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
