Excite → Excite (web portal) – The term "excite" is a common verb that means to cause Excitation, the web portal in question is now fairly unpopular as it has declined in popularity. Most people who would search for "excite" on Wikipedia are most likely not looking for the web portal but for Excitation. TrueAuraCoral (talk) 06:51, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support I'm not sure this was the primary topic in 2004 when the article was created. It certainly isn't now. User:力 (powera, π, ν) 20:34, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The more interesting title is where to redirect this title; my suggestion is Excited (a disambiguation page). User:力 (powera, π, ν) 20:35, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I like that idea but, I think it might make sense to go one step further. Because "excited" is just the past tense of "excite", move the disambig page of excited to Excite (disambiguation) ?

Support per nom. CaribDigita (talk) 20:37, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. Either disambiguate Excite separately (not sure whether e.g. Cincinnati Excite and Toshiba Excite are good entries or just WP:PTMs), or redirect it to Excitation. That dab page has several topics for which the relevant verb is "to excite", and also links excited state in the "See also' section. In contrast, Excited only has proper nouns (e.g. song titles) none of which can be called "Excite". 61.239.39.90 (talk) 01:37, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
