• Move --TIAYN (talk) 09:45, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
• Move, it is the common name. Sairp (talk) 11:25, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
• oppose "August Incident" should redirect to Gulf of Tonkin incident or be a disambiguation page (not forgetting the "August Action" in 1942 Lvov) -- 65.94.171.126 (talk) 04:47, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
  • The article itself doesn't even refer to the Gulf of Tonkin Incident as the August Incident... --TIAYN (talk) 07:04, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
    • The article is not the be-all and end-all of every name used to refer to the incident. It is in fact also called "August Incident" [1]; unlike Names of the United States, most topics do not sport a synonyms page to go along with it. -- 65.94.171.126 (talk) 04:54, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
• Oppose - I have to agree with IP here. With "August Incident" korea = 344 hits and "August Incident" vietnam = 176 hits I don't feel that we have clear case of primary topic here, so disambiguation page seems reasonable.--Staberinde (talk) 16:54, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
