Pat Lally (politician) → Pat Lally — It is the view of some Wikipedians that where we have only two people with a name then the margin of notability between them does not need to be very much to decide that one of them is the primary meaning. This person was Lord Provost (i.e. mayor) of Britain's third largest city, and an important and controversial figure in the politics of that city. The footballer does not look particularly important.

Oppose. Nothing wrong with the current setup. I'm not convinced that either is sufficiently important or well-known to claim primary usage. PC78 (talk) 13:50, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Agree that neither can claim primary usage. This also avoids the question of whether we delete the two-way DAB, potentially breaking incoming links. Andrewa (talk) 04:26, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- I am puzzled by this last comment, it seems to misunderstand what a move request is about. There isn't a question here, the move wouldn't mean deleting the 2-way DAB, it would mean overwriting it. As it happens there are very few incoming links, mostly from talk pages and the like, but these links would not be broken. PatGallacher (talk) 23:38, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
