Requested move[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: Move. Solid consensus that "tribe" is unnecessary disambiguation, as the base name already redirects. No evidence was presented challenging its status as primary topic. Cúchullain t/c 22:21, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Suquamish tribeSuquamish – target is redirect to current page, moved to "Suquamish tribe" by Kwami on Jan 1 2011, which was then redirected to "Suquamish (disambiguation)" by Mtsmallwood on Jun 15 2011, then moved back to obvious primary target by JaGa on June 22 201]. Suquamish (disambiguation) still exists and has three items, including the town and the ship. None are remotely comparable as primarytopic; cf WP:UNDAB re needless disambiguation.

  • Oppose until the issue is addressed properly. These should be discussed at a centralized location.
There was a discussion once on whether the ethnicity should have precedence for the name, and it was decided it shouldn't. That could be revisited. But it really should be one discussion on the principle, not thousands of separate discussions at every ethnicity in the world over whether it should be at "X", "Xs", or "X people". — kwami (talk) 12:30, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
