The result of the move request was: Moved to David Kirke (bungee jumper) — Amakuru (talk) 09:46, 13 September 2016 (UTC)
David Kirke (DSC) → David Kirke (dangerous sports) – The current article title might be taken as implying that Mr Kirke has been awarded the Distinguished Service Cross, which is not the case. Tevildo (talk) 20:15, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
- Moving would be better than leaving it where it is; merging to Dangerous Sports Club would be even better. Jonathan A Jones (talk) 10:10, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
- Weak support. The proposed title would be better than the current one, but that's the only thing I see in favor of it. I also think the suggested merge would be an improvement. The article can be split back out if there's ever anything to say about Mr. Kirke beyond this. 64.105.98.115 (talk) 02:58, 8 September 2016 (UTC) Added later: I support the title of David Kirke (bungee jumper) proposed below as superior to the originally proposed move. I still believe that this would be best handled by a merge, however. 64.105.98.115 (talk) 20:46, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
- Can I suggest that we just boldly merge the page as discussed at WP:MERGEINIT? Jonathan A Jones (talk) 09:03, 9 September 2016 (UTC)
- I would also support a merge along those lines. Tevildo (talk) 16:32, 9 September 2016 (UTC)

- Use David Kirke (bungee jumper), per WP:DAB standard disambiguation procedure. "Dangerous sports" isn't a proper term of art, its a partial misappropriation of a proper name. If he were notable in multiple extreme sports we could use that, but he's not. Just use the one he's notable for. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 01:59, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
