Talk:Let There Be Peace on Earth (song)

Who wrote the words and who wrote the music?[edit]

Do we know who was the composer and who was the lyricist? Was this a husband and wife team? Was it composed and written together as a truly collaborative effort with each person supplying melody and text? This article needs to have answers to these questions. Thank you.

Let There Be Peace on Earth (song) → Let There Be Peace on Earth – Clearly the primary topic; the only other use is a Vince Gill album which includes a cover of this. Inbounds suggest the original song is by far the more notable use of the term. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 21:08, 18 April 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

That isn't necessary. Requesting to move an article as a primary topic implies moving the disambiguation page out of the way to Let There Be Peace on Earth (disambiguation) (as WP:RM/CD automatically notes). At that point this one can be tagged with {{One other topic}} or (as some people construe it) with {{db-g14}} (i.e., if you think the primary topic at the basename doesn't count as a topic that the dabpage "disambiguates"). [Edit: The swapping method that Extraordinary Writ mentions below is also common (whether or not it is specifically suggested in the RM).] SilverLocust 💬 03:52, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support; the song seems to be the primary topic by pageviews and long-term significance. With a disambiguation page like this, my preferred solution is to pageswap it with the song and then blank-and-redirect it (thereby preserving the history).
