Factory (computing) → Factory (openSUSE) – this disambiguation "(computing)" is insufficently precise to identify the topic. Computer factories are covered under factory, we have other factory topics in the computing field as well, such as Factory (object-oriented programming), software factory, etc. Therefore, the current title should redirect to factory (disambiguation). 65.94.169.222 (talk) 07:15, 18 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Support move to factory (Linux) or factory (Linux development branch), given that the current page does not sufficiently disambiguate computer-related "factory" terms. (Opposed to moves to incomprehensible jargon-only dab.) — $Llywelyn II$ 09:01, 18 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
- factory (Linux development branch) is fine by me. I am the nominator. "openSUSE" is the brand of linux that uses the name "Factory"; it is not a generic linux term. "openSUSE" is equivalent to saying "Microsoft Windows" or "VMS" or "Mac OS" -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 02:20, 19 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
Oppose redirect to factory (disambiguation) as far too broad: you can redirect to a #computing section or just start a new dab for the computer-related terms. — $Llywelyn II$ 09:01, 18 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
- Section targetting is fine by me. Factory_(disambiguation)#Computing; I am the nominator; is that your only opposition? -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 02:20, 19 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
Support. The current title is too generic. George8211 / T 10:52, 23 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
Support in principle. I would think of computer manufacturing upon seeing this title. Red Slash 19:28, 23 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
Support (specific version nom proposed, not less specific "Linux" ones), modulo the Factory (disambiguation)#Computing suggestion found agreeable above. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ≼ 13:30, 24 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
Support current title is far too vague, the proposed disambiguation looks necessary. —innotata 23:11, 25 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
