1/4 mile → ¼ mile – The current title of the article is not how fractions are written. The current title means January 4th mile. Because that is not what we are talking about, the page should be moved.

Support. Use of these characters is commonplace. The current could be read as 1st of April mile. Ambiguous formats should be avoided. The ¼ character compares well against the undesirable / character in a title. Not sure why it shouldn’t be
Quarter mile. —

The title of this disambiguation would be better if no fractions were used. In other words, change it to words:
quarter mile. Cheers -

Quarter mile per
WP:COMMONNAME. It's not only the most common usage in mainstream publications like the New York Times or CNN, but also in enthusiast media like Cycle World or Road & Track. Displaying the fraction is not unheard of but it's the exception. Yes,
¼ mile is an improvement over
1/4 mile, but we can do even better. --

Support move to
quarter mile. None of the entries is actually named literally "1/4 mile" or "¼ mile" so "quarter mile" is a better title.

PreferQuarter mile to either of the other titles. Why worry about figure formatting when there is no need for figures?
