[edit] John Daly (golfer)

February 24 points here for the death of one John Daly (journalist, game show host) in 1991. Some sort of disambiguation is needed, I guess. --Naddy 12:24, 24 Feb 2004 (UTC)


It would be informative if someone could include whether or not John's parents and siblings are still alive and if so whether or not he is still closely involved with them. Thank you. 68.34.31.38 (talk) 15:37, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

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. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: page not moved at this time. The page view stats have this article viewed an order of magnitude more than all the other John Daly articles combined, give or take. On the other hand, the Australian politician was a major figure in the government there in the late 1920s and early 30s, which makes him quite notable even without a legion of page views.

It's an interesting enough case that, if it's proposed, it should be formatted as a multi-move, and advertised on the talk pages of the disambiguation page and all of the "John Daly (foo)" pages. This closure does not imply any position for or against such a proposal. - GTBacchus(talk) 05:28, 27 June 2011 (UTC)



John Daly (golfer)John Daly – Pretty much the primary topic as evidenced by the page views. Marcus Qwertyus 07:21, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

  • Support: Didn't go through all the traffic stats but seems right and I trust the nominator. –CWenger (^@) 20:51, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
  • Support. Seems like a fairly obvious one to me. Jenks24 (talk) 10:29, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
  • Oppose. John Daly (Australian politician) is one of Australia's most famous and colourful politicians to date. This golfer, while famous for several reasons, is not in the same class. I don't claim that the Australian is the primary meaning, but rather that there is none, so the DAB should stay where it is. (And incidentally, this should be discussed as a multiple move, as presumably it's proposed to move not overwrite the DAB.) Andrewa (talk) 07:28, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
