The result of the discussion was disambiguate. wbm1058 (talk) 12:06, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

According to Mirriam Webster, Dawn Man can refer to early humans or specifically to Piltdown man. So, keep, retarget, disambig, or something else? Oiyarbepsy (talk) 23:57, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've added Dawn man to the nomination. – Uanfala 17:08, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Create disambiguation page at Dawn man. Given how similar the two meanings are, it seems best to handle the disambiguation in the clearest way possible – with a dedicated dab page, rather than hatnotes. That page could then contain see also links to Dawn Man theory and Dawn's Men. As for the plurals and the versions with "human" – I don't know, although I imagine they should probably only refer to Archaic humans. – Uanfala 17:08, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambig seems to be the best solution. FunkMonk (talk) 17:27, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dab is okay. There's also Dawn of man but I think that redirects to one of the already mentioned redirect targets. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:06, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disambig to Piltdown Man, Dawn's Men, human evolution, etc. Clearly there are multiple topics here, and as with ancient humans, the creator of these redirects seems to have thought that the archaic in archaic humans is just a synonym for old, when in fact it refers to a specific clade of Homo. – Joe (talk) 08:33, 31 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect years. --Nevé–selbert 21:26, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as misleading if the wrong years. Legacypac (talk) 16:02, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Prince of Wales[edit]

The result of the discussion was retarget to Prince of Wales. (non-admin closure) feminist 12:20, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Having Charles as the primary topic is probably WP:RECENTISM. George IV is arguably the more historically important Prince, as he served as Regent. --Nevé–selbert 21:21, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Retarget to Prince of Wales, an article about the title, which clearly lists Charles as the current holder. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 02:41, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I expect the thought behind this redirect is that HRH The Prince of Wales is his formal title. I imagine The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, The Duchess of Cornwall, The Duke of York &c. are redirected similarly. DBD 12:47, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was keep. -- Tavix (talk) 16:24, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Readers searching with the ampersand are probably looking for the College of William & Mary rather than the couple. --Nevé–selbert 21:17, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Princess of Wales[edit]

The result of the discussion was keep. (non-admin closure) feminist 12:20, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Diana, Princess of Wales is probably the primary topic. Note that The Duke of Edinburgh redirects to Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, so there is a precedent. --Nevé–selbert 21:13, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This makes the most sense as currently titles, an article about the title rather than a specific person. Oiyarbepsy (talk) 02:42, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep "the XYZ" should target "XYZ" Legacypac (talk) 16:05, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep should direct to the title, not the current or most famous title holder. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:03, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Implausible redirect. DrStrauss talk 17:43, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. No mention of her except as a cashier? Sounds very much like a guest role. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:12, 1 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any point to these all caps redirects? Cercidiphyllaceae and Daphniphyllaceae exist and show up in the search bar when typing all caps. Plantdrew (talk) 00:02, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
