Oh Captain, My CaptainOh Captain, My Captain (Grimm) – I think people who search Oh Captain, My Captain will most likely be looking for the poem "O Captain! My Captain!", a much more popular thing than this episode of a television show. My highly scientific google search and pageviews comparison agrees (this page got 1,401 pageviews in the past month and the Grimm episodes preceding and succeeding it got 333 and 479, respectively). This suggests to me that most people are looking for the Whitman poem and 'Oh Captain, My Captain' should be redirected there with a hat at the top.

  • Comment - I think you may have changed the spelling in the request. Is it "Oh" or "O" in the episode title? Paintspot Infez (talk) 20:24, 29 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support SMALLDETAILS works well when a title has an addition like an exclamation mark and readers intentionally typing it could only be looking for a particular topic, that doesn't work the other way round when this is the simpler term, create a DAB at the base name or redirect to the poem.

  • Support. The famous poem is being alluded to, and the small details are way too small. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:03, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
