The result was no consensus with leave to speedy renominate. I was tempted to close as a "redirect" (which can still be done as an editorial decision) but MelanieN has a point. There should be some sources that link the two Ron Ritzman (talk) 23:20, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not seeing the issue here. How about Kowalski? Unscintillating (talk) 00:46, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Um, how about WP:N? That article is acceptable because it disambiguates notable people with that surname. SL93 (talk) 03:40, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect: to Kowalski, per precedent of several other variations of names p b p 04:22, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect: to Kowalski, as it is recognized as a variant of this name. Grillo7 (talk) 18:55, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- My problem is that the article says possibly which is itself unreferenced. SL93 (talk) 04:25, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There is nothing sourced in the article, thus we have no evidence that 1) this is actually a variant of Kowalski and 2) this surname is common enough to require an article or redirect. We do not appear to have any Wikipedia articles about anyone of this name (unlike the Kowalskis who are numerous). If an article is going to be redirected, it should at least be mentioned at the target page, but I can find no mention of the name Kavalsky (or any individuals named Kavalsky) at the page Kowalski. --MelanieN (talk) 22:05, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
