Notability vs. pupil defect?

Is RAPD-Marcus Gunn pupil more notable than the PCR technique? If so, perhaps that should be the land page for the abbreviation? Or perhaps this should just go to disambig?--Xris0 (talk) 15:03, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

RAPD → Random amplification of polymorphic DNA – For WP:NATURAL disambiguation from Relative afferent pupillary defect (also known as Marcus Gunn pupil), which gets about twice as many page views and is currently the subject of another RM submitted by me. Also note that sometimes Wikipedia seems to prefer to use spelled-out terms rather than abbreviations even when there is no disambiguation issue, such as for Severe acute respiratory syndrome–related coronavirus and Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. Also please note the similar comment on this Talk page from 2012. — BarrelProof (talk) 20:23, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support, WP:TITLEFORMAT, not overwhelmingly known only by the initialism with most sources first introducing the full term. Spelling it out is more accessible to those who don't know the topic well, and is still accessible to those that do. – Thjarkur (talk) 09:20, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
