• Firby, North Yorkshire → Firby
• Firby → Firby (surname)

– DAB from the 2 places with this name, although the surname article gets more views [[1]] its not overwhelming. There is also probably a lot of content at the surname article that should instead be on the settlement articles. A Google search throws up JR Firby Ltd. There is also Firby Lake in Canada[2]. If the DAB page isn't moved to the base name it should be moved to Firby (disambiguation) per WP:DABNAME since the current title reflects an incomplete disambiguation page.

  @In ictu oculi: The DAB page Firby, North Yorkshire which has existed since October last year should be moved to the base name as opposed to the Firby (disambiguation) which you created 10 minutes ago. Crouch, Swale (talk) 22:26, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Sorry, yes, was wrong footed. In ictu oculi (talk) 22:36, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Thanks, I have reformatted the Firby, North Yorkshire DAB and added the surname. Crouch, Swale (talk) 22:38, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
