The result of the move request was: Move to Adventure Time (short film). There's a clear consensus here that the previous title isn't kosher. Several options were suggested, and Adventure Time (short film) was the best supported. While this disambiguator isn't specifically listed in the naming conventions, as IJBall noted, this is not necessarily a reason to avoid it. Another popular option, Adventure Time (film), is unavailable as it's already a redirect to a proposed film adaptation, and several participants here felt it would be confusing as a disambiguator anyway. Feel free to start a new RM if a better disambiguator is identified. Cúchullain t/c 14:33, 3 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Pilot (Adventure Time) → Adventure Time (pilot)Adventure Time (short film) I'm not sure why this was moved to begin with. While the short is the pilot to the series, it only became so post facto. When it was initially released, it was simply called "Adventure Time". As such, having it labelled like it is now is incorrect. @Matt14451: I'm curious as to why you moved it.--Gen.

- Comment Not sure why your ping didn't work. I found this page in Category:Television articles with incorrect naming style. Pinging @Gonnym: who added it to the category July 14, 2018. Matt14451 (talk) 17:34, 16 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
- Note: This one was already discussed at WT:NCTV – Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (television)/Archive 13#Adventure Time (pilot) – but the discussion was sparsely attended and came to no resolution.... That said, I'm leaning in the direction of opposing the current proposal, as it doesn't follow WP:NCTV either. (And the correct proposal would be Adventure Time (TV pilot) in any case...) --IJBall (contribs • talk) 05:00, 17 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
- Oppose proposal as "pilot" is not a supported term per WP:NCTV. As IJBall said, "TV pilot" while not (yet) in the guide, has become a common practice for "TV pilot only series articles", however this article does not seem to be actually it even. As Netoholic pointed out in the linked discussion and as the article itself says, this seems to be a short film, so would support Adventure Time (film) (there is no other film in the parent article, only a "maybe working on film" topic. --Gonnym (talk) 10:28, 17 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
- Just making it clear I Support Adventure Time (film) and oppose any other option presented per woodensuperman. I don't see any reason for extended disambiguation because of a 2015 report about a movie being developed and which the article says
On July 22, 2018, Muto noted that "an [Adventure Time] movie was never officially announced
which makes it seem that it isn't even happening. Even if the film will eventually happen then the correct disambiguation will still be (2007 film) and not (short film). --Gonnym (talk) 22:13, 24 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
- Move to Adventure Time (short film) for all the reasons I gave in the discussion linked above. -- Netoholic @ 11:38, 17 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
- I think this is a better option. I switched the idea above.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 20:42, 18 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
- The disambiguator "(short film)" is not sanctioned at WP:NCFILM. --woodensuperman 13:47, 22 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
- Not being listed in a "naming convention" doesn't mean a disambiguator should never be used – that's what RM's are for: in an RM, consensus may determine that a "non-standard disambiguator" is actually the best choice in a specific circumstance. This may be one of those circumstances... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 15:26, 25 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
- I'm going to throw in the towel on this, and support move to Adventure Time (short film), even though I agree with Gonnym that I don't think "short" is needed here. But this proposal is clearly an improvement over the previous two titles for this article. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 16:08, 20 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
- Support "Adventure Time (pilot)", "Adventure Time (TV pilot)", "Adventure Time (short)", and I guess "Adventure Time (short film)". I definitely oppose "Adventure Time (film)", which (to most readers) would instantly make it seem like it's an article about a feature film (which already exists as a redirect to a section on a proposed film).

- Oppose. We don't use "(short film)" as a disambiguator per WP:NCFILM. --woodensuperman 13:46, 22 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
- Support Adventure Time (short film) per discussion above. "Adventure Time (film)" would suggest to readers that it's a feature length film as rumoured. Matt14451 (talk) 15:41, 25 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
