Ratkovo (Odžaci) → Ratkovo – Disambiguation page Ratkovo lists two articles only. Zoupan 04:46, 21 October 2017 (UTC) --Relisting. Andrewa (talk) 05:33, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

• Contested Two villages, one in Serbia, one in Slovakia. No reason given to treat either as more significant than the other. DuncanHill (talk) 05:04, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
• Comment DuncanHill, the population numbers (4,118 vs 182)?--Zoupan 06:50, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
• @Zoupan and DuncanHill: queried move request Anthony Appleyard (talk) 07:45, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
• Support. Neither village is particularly well known in the grand scheme of things, but the Serbian one still seems much more notable. No such user (talk) 13:00, 23 October 2017 (UTC)
• Support move to "Ratkovo, Serbia". No one in the Anglosphere knows what "Odzaci" is (and most of us don't have the keyboards to type it), but Serbia is well-known. Academicoffee71 (talk) 02:50, 24 October 2017 (UTC)

  Not according to WP:NCGN#Serbia, as well as most other country-specific guidelines stipulating uniform disambiguation by county/municipality. Readers will hardly arrive to this (or any other) page by typing its full title. No such user (talk) 13:11, 24 October 2017 (UTC)

• Support move to Ratkovo per WP:2DABPRIMARY. —  AjaxSmack  01:47, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
• Oppose four locations with the name. All small. In ictu oculi (talk) 13:54, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
• Support per WP:TWODABS. Barring any evidence to the contrary, seems clear to me that the Serbian village with ~4000 inhabitants is primary over the Slovakian one with ~200. Especially in a TWODABS case like where the threshold is lower. Has the added benefit of removing the remarkably unhelpful "Odžaci" disambiguation. Jenks24 (talk) 09:50, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
