The result of the move request was:

The proposed move of the Australian football club achieved a solid consensus; it was suggested that the lack of periods in "FC" was sufficient disambiguation under WP:SMALLDETAILS, but this viewpoint was disputed by several other participants.

For the English clubs, there were two main proposals that attracted support: disambiguation with just the founding year, or disambiguation with "(England, founded [year])". Supporters of year-only disambiguation argued that it was a less awkward (i.e., more WP:NATURAL) construction and that it was WP:CONSISTENT with the disambiguation of other same-named English football clubs. Supporters of the longer disambiguation, meanwhile, argued that including the country would make the titles more WP:CONSISTENT with the country-based disambiguation in Windsor FC (Australia). Ultimately, while this portion of the discussion did not lead to a strong consensus, I feel the weight of argument leaned slightly in favor of the year-only disambiguation.
Finally, there was consensus that the plain title "Windsor F.C." should become a DAB page. (non-admin closure) ModernDayTrilobite (talkcontribs) 16:24, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

– The first two clubs have basically identical name locations. Past RMs involving similar pages have just added the country name. I'm not sure what to do with the presence of two in the same country, although reading the article, perhaps it could just be merged into the page for Windsor & Eton F.C.. These may not be the best move locations, but the status quo is not ideal. If there are better locations for the names, please advise. RedPatch (talk) 22:57, 21 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
