Requested move 17 December 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: moved. Another suggested disambiguator was "(surname)", but because there are also individuals with Solanki as a given name (e.g. Solanki Roy, mentioned in the discussion), "(name)" is preferred under WP:APOTITLE.

Solanki → Solanki (name) – Is the surname more noteworthy than the Solanki (clan)? The clan receives far more pageviews per [1]. I found a duplicate article of the clan at Solangi and redirected to the clan, but I am not sure if that page should instead redirect here. Although this list currently includes only the surname, there are notable people with the given name Solanki as well (e.g. Solanki Roy), which would be included in the same article. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 18:51, 17 December 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. – robertsky (talk) 14:48, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Move Solanki (clan) to be the primary topic and move Solanki → Solanki (surname), not (name). It can be decided through normal editing outside this RM whether given names should be best on a dab, dedicated given name list, or combined name list.—Bagumba (talk) 09:21, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support the clan has (2,167) views and Chaulukya dynasty has 3,263 compared with only 421[[2]] for the name. The name may be primary by long-term significance so I'd create a DAB at the base name. There is a given name at d:Q114089314 otherwise I'd have suggested Solanki (surname) per WP:APOAT. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:22, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
