Requested move 25 August 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 as proposed. The alternative proposal to move James Anderson (cricketer) is not moved, there isn't consensus for that, and should be proposed as a separate RM on his own page if desired. (Personally I would oppose such an RM, he is far and away the most prominent cricketer of this name, and PARTIALDAB can always be overridden in such circumstances). — Amakuru (talk) 17:48, 1 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

James Anderson (Queensland cricketer) → James Anderson (Australian cricketer) – We usually disambiguate by nationality rather than the team they played for, unless there are multiple people with the same name and nationality, which isn't the case here, as James Anderson is English not Australian, and there don't look to be any other notable Australian cricketers with this name. Joseph2302 (talk) 12:24, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nomination and, since the other cricketer has been mentioned, the incomplete disambiguation James Anderson (cricketer) should redirect to the James Anderson#Sports disambiguation page, which leads to the conclusion that this nomination should also include the associated nomination James Anderson (cricketer) → James Anderson (English cricketer). —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 18:55, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I oppose the second move. James Anderson (cricketer) is a clear primary topic for people searching for a cricketer of that name- no comparison between an international cricketer with over 200 international matches and someone who played a few notable games. Joseph2302 (talk) 20:16, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As already stated, "James Anderson (cricketer)" is incomplete disambiguation. If the English cricketer had been selected as the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, the main title header of his entry would have been "James Anderson" and the header of the dab page would have been "James Anderson (disambiguation)". However, since there are 60 men named "James Anderson" listed upon the James Anderson (disambiguation) page, the English cricketer's renown cannot be greater than the combined notability of the remaining 59 men. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 20:29, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support James Anderson (Queensland cricketer) → James Anderson (Australian cricketer), oppose Roman Spinner's suggestion The Australian cricketer should be moved to the disambig Australian cricketer as nom has stated. The English cricketer should remain at his current location as he is the most likely search term for cricketers of that name. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 08:42, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. And also move of James Anderson (cricketer) to James Anderson (English cricketer). He may be the most prominent cricketer by that name, but it's still incomplete disambiguation as he's not the most prominent person by that name. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:53, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
