The following discussion is an archived 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: page moved to Kevin Sharp per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, based on the disparity in search-engine hits. Kevin Sharp dab page moved to Kevin Sharp (disambiguation). Miniapolis 12:48, 9 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Kevin Sharp (country singer) → Kevin Sharp (singer) – Per WP:PRECISION, a disambiguator should be only as precise as needed to disambiguate. Since the deletion of Kevin Sharp (heavy metal music singer), this is now the only singer listed at Kevin Sharp (disambiguation), so "singer" is a precise enough dab.

What about "Kevin Sharp, heavy metal/grindcore singer for Venomous Concept and Brutal Truth" on the Dab page? Siuenti (talk) 14:37, 26 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Comment How about a move to just Kevin Sharp, then move the dab page to Kevin Sharp (disambiguation)? The page hits are very largely in favor of the country singer being the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC — 176 for the footballer, 116 for the cricketer, and 1912 for the singer. Also, the singer is the first Kevin Sharp to show up if you google "Kevin Sharp". Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 13:10, 27 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
- Reply. You make a strong case for treating the country singer as the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, but there are many advantages in keeping the undabbed title as a dab page, so I'd prefer to just rename to Kevin Sharp (singer). --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:29, 28 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
  - If I make a strong case for WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, then what are the advantages for not making him so? Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 18:59, 28 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
Support a move to Kevin Sharp per TPH. I'm not sure what advantages BrownHairedGirl is referring to. --BDD (talk) 17:48, 2 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
