Talk:Frank Castle (rugby league)

Requested move 22 August 2016

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Speedily not moved. The proposed title runs contrary to WP:Disambiguation – there is no other notable Frank Castle to disambiguate from, so the article should remain at its base title. No such user (talk) 11:58, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

Frank Castle → Frank Castle (sprinter) – I have reverted a cut and paste move by @*Treker: in order to save the page history. Mattlore (talk) 02:47, 22 August 2016 (UTC)

• Thank you. I didn't know how to do that. I support the move.*Treker (talk) 03:54, 22 August 2016 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: Moved to Frank Castle (rugby league). Frank Castle will become redirect to Punisher, once incoming links are sorted out.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:35, 31 August 2016 (UTC)

• Frank Castle → Frank Castle (sprinter)

– Nominating these set of movesthis move on behalf of User:*Treker, who performed a cut-paste move at Frank Castle (sprinter) before it was reverted. I believe the user insists that Punisher is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Correction after initial post, after intention by *Treker was more clear. In addition, User:*Treker would like Frank Castle to be a redirect to Punisher per WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. — Andy W. (talk · ctb) 20:17, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

• Support Ok. Thank you. As far as I can tell Punisher is clearly the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of this name. A simple google search for Frank Castle will clearly give about a thousand results relating to the Punsiher. Even searhing for something like "Frank Castle football" will show some images and links which are related to the Punisher and not the person which the article is under rigth now.*Treker (talk) 20:28, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

Ok. Maybe I didn't make it clear but what I wish to happen and what makes sense here is for this name to become a redirect to the Punisher and for this athlete by the name of Frank Castle to be located at something else. Like Sinatra redirects to Frank Sinatra and all other uses are at Sinatra disambiguation.*Treker (talk) 20:40, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

• Mild support myself, though I suggest that Frank Castle (rugby league) might be a better title. It appears that "Punisher" pops up to a larger degree in search results. — Andy W. (talk · ctb) 21:00, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

I agree, he seems more notable for his rugby league career than his sprinting record. Mattlore (talk) 21:03, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

• Support. Punisher appears to be the primary topic for "Frank Castle". Nohomersryan (talk) 00:32, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
• Support the move of Frank Castle to Frank Castle (sprinter), but not the redirect of Frank Castle to Punisher. Those searching for Punisher will type "Punisher" in the same manner as those searching for Batman will type "Batman", not Bruce Wayne. Frank Castle should be a disambiguation page listing Frank Castle (Punisher) as well as Frank Castle (sprinter). —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 18:37, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

It seems the other editors believe that Frank Castle the athlete should be under Frank Castle (rugby league) instead. Also, I disagree that Frank Castle shouldn't redirect to the Punsiher. Frank Castle gets as many search results on google as the Punisher does. The character is very well known under that name as well. It's also a lot more convenient to just search with that alias since there are about a docen other article related to the character which also starts with the the title "Punisher".*Treker (talk) 19:39, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

• I support this article being moved to either Frank Castle (sprinter), Frank Castle (rugby league), or, preferably, Frank Castle (athlete), and support Frank Castle redirecting to Punisher per *Treker's WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT reasoning. —DangerousJXD (talk) 07:39, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
• Support Frank Castle (athlete), I don't think "sprinter" is totally clear here when the more general disambiguator will do, as he was also prominent as a rugby player. The base name should point to the Punisher article if it's really the WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT, alternately, Frank Castle (disambiguation) should move there.--Cúchullain ^t/c 15:42, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
