Requested move 28 August 2018[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. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: nomination withdrawn. In the aftermath of the expansion of the Donald Burton (disambiguation) page through the addition of Don Burton WP:DABMENTIONs, the politician is no longer the sole "Don Burton" on the dab page.    Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 19:47, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Don Burton (politician)Don Burton – Sole Wikipedia main title header which bears this exact name, with Don Burton redirecting to Don Burton (politician). The only other similar entry is for actor Donald Burton who, as far as can be determined, had never been credited as "Don Burton".     Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 16:18, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose the Aus polly stub is a nobody, and the Cranberries' singer husband and Duran Duran manager gets more hits, in fact he used to be an article there till drive by PROD redirected to Duran Duran or something. Clear dab page territory. In fact screams and dances dab page dab page with a frilly apron on. In ictu oculi (talk) 20:08, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
As of this writing, the Donald Burton (disambiguation) page contains only two entries — Donald Burton, the putative WP:PRIMARYTOPIC (since he is not listed at the top of the page in the standard manner of primary topics) and Don Burton (politician). If a consensus can be established for the addition of WP:DABMENTIONs Don Burton (broadcasting pioneer) at WLBC-FM#History or Dolores O'Riordan's husband Don Burton, who was the subject of a Wikipedia stub from October 2006 until February 2018, or any other notable Don/Donald Burtons, then it may be more intuitive to transfer the contents of Donald Burton (disambiguation) to the Don Burton redirect.    Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 13:39, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There are 4 Don Burton (disambiguation) in articles. None of them meets Primary Topic criteria. The fact that one nobody has a stub doesn't make him a primary topic. In ictu oculi (talk) 22:27, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support there is no need to redirect 'Don Burton' to 'Don Burton (politician)'. As we have no other 'Don Burton' articles, this is clear page move territory. Lepricavark (talk) 15:05, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
We don't dab by titles. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:19, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
