Christopher Burke (design writer) → Christopher Burke – Only person called Christopher Burke - everyone else is Chris. Unreal7 (talk) 15:53, 22 October 2016 (UTC)--Relisting. © Tbhotch^™ (en-2.5). 10:14, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

• Oppose Chris Burke (actor) Chris Burke (baseball) Chris Burke (footballer) are all Christophers, see first line of each article. In ictu oculi (talk) 07:13, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

WP:COMMONNAME, IIO. Pretty straightforward. Unreal7 (talk) 19:49, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

WP:COMMONNAME only decides between using "Christopher" and "Chris", it does not address WP:PRECISION and WP:DISAMBIGUATION In ictu oculi (talk) 07:02, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

By that logic, Mike Posner should be Mike Posner (singer). Two different names, IIO - please just acknowledge a primary topic. Unreal7 (talk) 23:16, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

• Support per nomination. Sole main title header (among Wikipedia articles) which depicts this exact name. A hatnote at Christopher Burke will direct users to the Chris Burke dab page where other similar main headers and DABMENTIONs may be found. Analogous to such RMs as Talk:Bobby Harris (gridiron football)#Requested move 11 October 2016, Talk:Jim McAllister (Irish republican)#Requested move 12 October 2016 or Talk:Ben Gibson (footballer)#Requested move 22 October 2016. —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 05:38, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
• Oppose. Rationale is factually incorrect, there are other people by that name. Just because we have no other article with the base name Christopher Burke doesn't make that name available, it needs to pass the primary topic test. Nom has subsequently claimed it does, but has presented no evidence and it seems improbable. Andrewa (talk) 05:57, 30 October 2016 (UTC)
