The result of the move request was: moved. Jenks24 (talk) 09:57, 12 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Richmond Police Department → Richmond Police Department (California) – There are two articles about agencies called Richmond Police Department; the other one is called Richmond Police Department (Virginia) and this should be comparable to it. Richmond Police Department (California) already exists as a redirect to this page; instead it should be the title of this article. Then the title Richmond Police Department should either be deleted or made into a DAB page. Both of the existing articles are already dabbed by hatnotes so a DAB page may be unnecessary. --MelanieN (talk) 15:30, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support as obvious. I think that Richmond Police Department should be kept a dab page. First Light (talk) 21:12, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support in the absence of a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. I think the hatnotes are sufficient for disambiguation unless another Richmond Police Department is created. --BDD (talk) 15:54, 5 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support, seems straightforward. Recast original title as disambiguation page. — P.T. Aufrette (talk) 05:26, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose this is not necessary until another Richmond Police Department article appears.LuciferWildCat (talk) 08:48, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Lucifer, there already IS another Richmond Police Department article. Namely Richmond Police Department (Virginia). As you would have known if you had read the above - or noticed the hatnote in this article. --MelanieN (talk) 21:46, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support, pretty obviously. I would not be opposed to keeping Richmond Police Department as a dab page, though with the hatnotes that's not strictly necesarry. Rorshacma (talk) 09:30, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support move and make the current page a disambiguation page. Seems to be the obvious solution. •••Life of Riley (T–C) 19:29, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
