Requested move 18 May 2022[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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: not moved. Main assumption of the RM ("the only notable person with this name") has been refuted. Primary topic cannot be obviously identified either. Undeletion of the soldier's article can be dealt with elsewhere. (closed by non-admin page mover)Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 23:43, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]


Christian Braun (basketball)Christian Braun – the only notable person with this name. The proposed title has history, as does its talk page: preserve as Christian Braun (soldier) or similar?

  • Yes the history needs to be moved somewhere though categories don't help as the article didn't have any. Crouch, Swale (talk) 06:21, 19 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Better to create a WP:DAB page. I also think the previous Christian Braun page should be restored (probably to Christian Braun (soldier)), given that the basis of deletion (namely, WP:SOLDIER) is now deprecated, and they also fit the criteria of WP:ANYBIO due to their military award. —Caorongjin 💬 09:54, 23 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    A dab may be the best option but only if we don't see a primary topic. The basketball player has 22 incoming wikilinks against two for the soldier (including a self-link). Search results still show Wikipedia's deleted article on the soldier but are otherwise exclusively about basketball. On the other hand, the soldier may be more memorable after another generation or two. Certes (talk) 12:05, 23 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the move request was: moved. Christian Braun will be moved to Christian Braun (soldier) to make way for the move, as it has significant page history. (closed by non-admin page mover) Skarmory (talk • contribs) 09:01, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]


Christian Braun (basketball)Christian Braun – The basketball player is now orders of magnitudes more popular than the soldier, page view stats [here]. There is no comparison, and seeing as the soldier doesn't even have a page right now I think logically the basketball player should be PRIMARY with a hatnote leading to the soldier. Don't think long-term significance is an argument in this particular case. Ortizesp (talk) 04:51, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Note: redirects, such as Christian Braun, are ineligible to be current titles in move requests. "Christian BraunChristian Braun (soldier)" had to be removed from this request to meet that requirement. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. put'er there 10:41, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support, no brainer page move per PRIMARY. SportsGuy789 (talk) 16:58, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Per nom and the fact the current primary topic is a redirect. A redirect being the primary topic doesn't make much sense, regardless of this Christian Braun's popularity.--Rockchalk717 18:26, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support this one seems obvious given the other one is a redirect to a list entry. ThadeusOfNazereth(he/him)Talk to Me! 03:11, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
