Page title
[edit]I think it should be titled "Cameron Bancroft" not "Cam Bancroft" as his real name is Cameron and he is more commonly referred to as Cameron. Not sure how to change it. If I work it out I will change it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Matt jobe watson (talk • contribs) 06:46, 5 October 2015 (UTC)

Cameron Bancroft (cricketer) → Cameron Bancroft – The cricketer is the clear primary topic. He has far more page views consistently, he has represented his national team and received international coverage, particularly because of the 2018 Australian ball-tampering scandal. On the other hand, the actor appears only to be known in Canada & the US, and the article on the actor is only sourced to IMDb, whereas the cricketer's article is well-sourced. Google search for Cameron Bancroft shows predominantly results for the cricketer. All in all, I believe this demonstrates that the cricketer is the primary topic for Cameron Bancroft.

- Support Per nom, a clear case of WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 09:15, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- Support. The actor is of marginal notability. There are spikes in the cricketer's page views whenever the ball-tampering affair is in the news, but I expect that he will have long-term significance because he is likely to be mentioned on future occasions when someone is caught changing the condition of the ball.
- The actor should be linked in a hatnote. A DAB page is not needed per WP:TWODABS (Primary topic with only one other topic). Narky Blert (talk) 17:02, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
- Also, I think the cricketer will at some point return to the national team, and be in the spotlight just for that alone. I know that's a bit crystally, but it's quite likely. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 17:57, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
- Support: clear case for the cricketer, he's an international sportsman who was involved in an internationally covered controversy. The actor should be a hatnote. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 10:27, 30 December 2018 (UTC)
