– The canyon itself is the primary topic. The made-for-TV Hallmark movie is not a particularly well-known movie. The movie article is unqualified due to the historical accident of having been created nine months prior to the article on the canyon, not on any basis of primacy. Although the article for the film currently has a somewhat higher hit count than the article for the canyon itself, that is likely an artifact of the current naming: someone looking for information on the canyon will first be sent to the article on the film, before clicking through on the hatnote to the article on the canyon itself. This will artificially inflate the view count for the movie article, as readers go there in error. Incoming links are about even, with the links for the canyon itself barely edging out those for the TV movie, once you adjust for links intended for the canyon that go to the movie by mistake (which is another basis for the move; that's an expected mistake). Searches outside of Wikipedia overwhelmingly point to the canyon, not the TV movie. TJRC (talk) 19:44, 5 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
