Renaming proposal[edit]

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: not moved. Consensus below is that no primary topic exists among these villages. Per the suggestion below, I have redirected Žiče to Zice for the purpose of easier disambiguation among them. Xoloz (talk) 18:01, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]



Žiče, Slovenske KonjiceŽiče – By far the best known place named Žiče. Eleassar my talk 13:41, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose - sl:Žiče is a dab with Žiče, Slovenske Konjice, Žiče Charterhouse Žiče, Domžale - English wp should have a similar dab (which can be done in 30 seconds). In ictu oculi (talk) 20:54, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Seems like primary topic, here, In ictu oculi; one has 520 people, one has 60, and one is a house. Maybe the Slovenian WP has a vastly different perspective regarding their standards for disambiguation? I've found that on the Spanish WP. We have the article on the second-largest city in Mexico (1.5 million people) at Guadalajara, but because there's a Madrid exurb named Guadalajara heading a Spanish province of the same name (~300,000 inhabitants), es:Guadalajara is currently a disambiguation page. I disagree with them but that's their practice. Perhaps Slovenia's WP is different? Red Slash 22:25, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
This is nuts. What on earth for? We don't have to hide one of these villages. What possible purpose does hiding one of them serve? WP:RM is not the great hide-the-article game. In ictu oculi (talk) 22:52, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
? I'm rather confused. Red Slash 23:20, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
WP:PRIMARYTOPIC should be used sparingly where ambiguating a title might really help people. Ambiguating tiny Slovenian villages is not what WP:PRIMARYTOPIC was intended for. In ictu oculi (talk) 06:18, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe it the concept of primary topic doesn't scale very well. That's a reasonable position to take. I'm not sure I agree. (And unless a reader is very familiar with the small towns of Slovenia, Žiče, Slovenske Konjice, Žiče, Domžale, Žiče, etc... they're all unclear!) In any case, if there's no consensus to move here, then Žiče would be best to redirect to Zice so we have one solid disambiguation page. Red Slash 19:12, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Frankly, they're both relatively obscure. I'd prefer a DAB page, as In ictu oculi suggests. Doremo (talk) 05:41, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per In ictu oculi and per the Slovenian wiki, and per the similar obscurity of all these places. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 18:58, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
