Charlie Morton → Charlie Morton (baseball, born 1854) – Not primary topic [1] [2] Joeykai (talk) 21:32, 10 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I think that based on their lifetime contributions to the game, the executive here gets the edge on primary topic of "Charlie Morton". There are just two notable people of this name in the entirety of WP, so I think status quo with hatnotes are appropriate. However, if moved, I don't agree with the page name; per WP:NC-BASE it should be closer to Charlie Morton (manager) or Charlie Morton (baseball executive).Neonblak ^talk - 19:21, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Charlie Morton (pitcher) has over three times as many page views [3] [4] I think neither is the primary topic.Joeykai (talk) 20:17, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support - and redirect to Charles Morton dab In ictu oculi (talk) 06:14, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support since In ictu oculi has pointed out that there is a relevant disambiguation page at Charles Morton. 73.222.28.191 (talk) 02:49, 18 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
