• Dino (disambiguation) → Dino
• Dino → Dino (name)

– No WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for Dino in terms of page views or long-term significance. Conjecture, but all of my local search views and news articles when I search "Dino" shows results for dinosaurs. Several other pages beat the name in page views, stats [here] Ortizesp (talk) 16:26, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

• Oppose Dino is clearly abbr name of Dinosaurs, and is clearly primary redirect. 180.254.173.167 (talk) 20:04, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
  • Right now it's not redirecting to Dinosaur, so are you proposing to redirect it there? Either way it would have to be moved.--Ortizesp (talk) 20:18, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
    • Maybe yes, since Dino already referred to Dinosaurs to general people. So i would prefer move the redirect Dino to Dinosaur. 180.254.173.167 (talk) 23:39, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
• Redirect to Dinosaur per 180.254.173.167. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 02:03, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
• Support the character gets 2,288 views and the automobile gets 2,256 compared with only 956 for the name. The name may be primary by long-term significance but dinosaurs may also be so I'd have no primary topic as I don't think dinosaur are called "Dino" often enough for a primary topic.

• Support Dinosaur is the most common usage (i.e. what "first comes to mind" to English speakers), but the name is more encyclopedic since "dino" is a very informal epithet. Therefore there is no primary topic. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 21:31, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
• Support both per nom, and per reasons listed by User:King of Hearts. Paintspot Infez (talk) 05:35, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
• Support - Dino is commonly used to mean many things, and I think there would probably be a fairly even split between those who would expect it to be a name (I certainly would), and those who would expect it to be a short form of "dinosaur" (which seems quite logical when I think about it).

• Support per nomination; Crouch, Swale; King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠; Paintspot Infez and HumanBodyPiloter5. WP:NOPRIMARYTOPIC. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 02:39, 28 November 2021 (UTC)
• Support no primary topic; however I oppose having Dino redirect to Dinosaur. User:力 (powera, π, ν) 18:09, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
• Support. No clear primary topic. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:39, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
