Sitka → Sitka (disambiguation) – Sitka, Alaska is the primary topic for this name. The majority of other subjects by the same name are named after the city. Of those that are not, the city (once the capital of Russian Alaska, as a fun fact) is still the clear primary topic -- it is overwhelmingly read over all other subjects according to pageview stats, as well as in search results for Google, Google Books, and Google News.

To be clear: This is not a request to move Sitka, Alaska from its current name -- this is a situation like Albuquerque, Baton Rouge, Billings or Tallahassee, where the city is a primary topic but the page name includes the state according to WP:USPLACE. --Yaksar (let's chat) 03:10, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
