Precisionist → Precisionist (racehorse) – "Precisionist" ought to redirect to precisionism. The horse is not the primary meaning. Srnec (talk) 00:05, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

• Support per nom -- 70.51.44.60 (talk) 07:09, 9 December 2015 (UTC)
• Support yes In ictu oculi (talk) 08:00, 9 December 2015 (UTC)
• Support, with the appropriate hatnotes and fixed links. The art movement had 2,835 views last month, while the horse had 240 views. There are several misplaced links to the horse article which intend the art article, as well. It is also WP:CONSISTENT with Cubist, Impressionist, etc., even where there are other WP topics with those names. Dohn joe (talk) 16:02, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

• Oppose: Just create a hatnote; no need to create a redirect and completely rename an article. But if you insist, at least do it right, the proper format for horse articles is Precisionist (horse) unless we have articles on more than one horse named Precisionist.

• Support Precisionist (horse). On Google Books, Precisionist art returns 7x the hits for Precisionist horse. This combined with the page views and incoming links suggests that the art movement is the primary topic of "Precisionist". As Montanabw says, "(horse)" seems to be the preferred disambiguator.--Cúchullain ^t/c 14:29, 16 December 2015 (UTC)

Discussion

Any additional comments:

• Comment: Down the road, I note google shows that there is also a watch with that name, and the noun in general. So a dab might be most appropriate. Montanabw^(talk) 04:16, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
