Requested move[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: moved. Clear consensus that the football club is not the primary topic. 70.51.44.60's suggestion of a merger with the Hilal dab is probably worth a separate discussion. Jenks24 (talk) 08:07, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Al-Hilal (disambiguation) → Al-Hilal – Now "Al-Hilal" football club is not only a club in Saudi Arabia in all over the world. The club which in Saudi Arabia is very famous. However, Only known by the people whom lived in Asia. Have you got any permission for that club is very famous in the world? It just not all the people known that football club whom lived in Africa.

@WKDx417: Very many non-football-fans, and many football fans, have likely not heard of this club. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:03, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support move: no evidence that one football club is the Primary Topic for this term which I understand means "The Crescent", when there are publications, film, other sports clubs. PamD 10:43, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support; as User:PamD, move over redirect no harm to Al-Hilal FC. However, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Al-Hilal User:WKDx417 are you going to help with clean-up? In ictu oculi (talk) 13:53, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I will help to clean up these links. (PS: I have sniped that link likes in Kowloon Station). Not only I request this, I will request move the topics title which including "Al-Hilal season" to "Al-Hilal FC Season". Because Al-Hilal is not only a club in Saudi Arabia in all over the world.--WKDx417 (talk) 03:03, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Good for you, it's going to be a hell of a job - particularly as the first link I looked at was one of three Sudan clubs. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:04, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support. No clear primary topic. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:21, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment do we need separate disambiguation pages for Al-Hilal and Hilal ? Why not merge both together, and redirect "Al-Hilal" to Hilal ? -- 70.51.44.60 (talk) 05:51, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support, a Google Books search for this term gives nothing about football in the top 10, and the word is rather generic, so it's fairly clear the club isn't primary topic. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 12:31, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
