Requested move 23 October 2019[edit]

The following is a closed 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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Consensus to moved 1st: Aaron Hawkins → Aaron Hawkins (engineer); but not moved 2nd: Aaron Hawkins (politician) → Aaron Hawkins. As there is no WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for Aaron Hawkins. Created dab at Aaron Hawkins. comrade waddie96 ★ (talk) 14:54, 1 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]


– This is a swap in primary topic. As per WP:ONEOTHER, we don't need a disambiguation page when there are two articles for one base name and one of the articles is the primary topic. The politician has now become mayor of a reasonable-size city and that changes as to which article is the primary topic. Schwede66 19:00, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support. Grutness...wha? 23:09, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support 1st, but OPPOSE 2nd. Primary topic swaps are a mess to deal with. For now, it's safest to have a disambiguation page at the basename, per WP:TWODABS like John Quested. Paintspot Infez (talk) 15:14, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support 1st since clearly not primary by page views but unsure on the 2nd per Paintspot, it might indeed be better to have a DAB at the base name. Crouch, Swale (talk) 18:46, 25 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support both moves. I admittedly would prefer waiting here since his new role is so recent and therefore guiding the views right now, but the numbers here are low enough for the engineer that a TWODABS with primary situation makes sense.--Yaksar (let's chat) 03:04, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support both, page views data clearly show the mayor being the primary topic. Kiwichris (talk) 08:17, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support 1st but Oppose 2nd per Paintspot Infez and Crouch, Swale. No WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 06:20, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose as written. Move the engineer to the red link title (no RM needed) and create a disambiguation page behind him. Do not move the politician. ―cobaltcigs 06:42, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support 1st, Oppose 2nd. No primary topic here. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:45, 30 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: The article on Aaron Hawkins the engineer has been nominated for deletion. Calidum 20:03, 30 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment for closing admin: can I suggest that we park this move request while this AfD sorts itself out. Looks like a clear 'keep' to me and if so, this move request can just carry on when that AfD closes. Schwede66 03:00, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support 1st, oppose 2nd. I don't think the case for PRIMARYTOPIC is clear-cut enough to favor one over the other. An alternative target for the 1st move would be Aaron R. Hawkins, but we would still need a dab page rather than moving the other article into the un-initialed name. Whoever does this move should be careful to also move all of the incoming links as the other changes would cause there to be no redirect to the moved article. There are also nine deleted edits from 2010 about the NZ politician under the current "Aaron Hawkins" article that could be restored, if someone is up for a complicated history split / history merge. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:44, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: The AfD for the article was withdrawn, but (assuming this is approved) I think we should wait for the requested move to close before posting this (and if it does get moved, to update the hook for the new location). I am creating the nomination now anyway, because I have no idea how long it will take to close or whether it will be soon enough for the article to still be eligible for DYK nomination when it does. Move made, links updated.

5x expanded by Russ Woodroofe (talk), Nsk92 (talk), Vycl1994 (talk), and David Eppstein (talk). Nominated by David Eppstein (talk) at 23:00, 31 October 2019 (UTC).[reply]

  • The previous edit summary is incorrect. I have not touched this disambiguation page or any of the related articles. bd2412 T 16:50, 1 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • 5x expansion is new enough, long enough, neutrally written and cites sources with inline citations. Full name/DOB cited to published dissertation, so no BLP issue there. Earwig matches are properly cited quotations. Proposed hook is interesting to a broad audience, short enough, and supported with an inline citation. QPQ completed by nominator. Looks good to go, but this is my first review, so the opinion of a second reviewer would not hurt my feelings. Indignant Flamingo (talk) 21:23, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
