The result of the proposal was moved. --BDD (talk) 21:44, 14 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Dolomiten (newspaper) → Dolomiten – In my opinion there is no necessity to distinguish the page's category, as there is only another page with the same name, which contain only a redirect. ElSaxo (talk) 21:16, 7 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

The primary meaning of "Dolomiten" without disambiguater is likely as German for the Dolomites mountains. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:20, 7 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
- First of all, thank you for having moved here my move request, indeed seems to be most appropriate place to discuss it. I believe that a disambiguation is not necessary, as elsewhere in Wikipedia the mountain range is referred only with the English name (the German name is only used here, Alpine Club Guide, where in my opinion the links can be redirected without problems to "Dolomites"). Also, for what I'm able to see, no other translated name of the subjected page has his own redirect page. - ElSaxo (talk) 21:32, 7 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Weak support - the string "Dolomiten is" in Google Books evidently refers to the newspaper. Though having said that one or two readings for the local name for the mountains are also picked up so the parenthetical dab is doing no harm. In ictu oculi (talk) 02:01, 8 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Weak oppose making "Dolomiten" a disambiguation page would solve all problems -- 76.65.131.217 (talk) 04:37, 9 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
- No, it would create an unnecessary DAB page with only two entries. — AjaxSmack 01:07, 11 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Support. The status quo up till one minute ago was a problem (having "Dolomiten" redirect to the mountains) because users were redirected with no mention of the newspaper on the mountain page or the DAB page (I have altered the hatnote and the DAB page). With a move, those seeking the mountains need only click once from the dab hatnote. — AjaxSmack 01:07, 11 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
