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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: not moved. However, consensus that The Mick should not redirect to Mickey Mantle exists. Per WP:NOGOODOPTIONS, The Mick is redirected to Mick instead as it seems to be the most supported. If this is unsatisfactory, consider using WP:RFD instead.

The Mick (TV series) → The Mick – Currently The Mick serves as a redirect to Mickey Mantle. That page averages 2000+ hits a day, but the redirect only gets 5. This shows that most people looking for Mickey Mantle are not using "The Mick" to find him. The TV show, although altogether less notable (600 hits/day), is more closely associated to the term "The Mick", and should be its primary topic. 162.208.168.92 (talk) 21:09, 8 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Support per nom. There is no other article titled "The Mick" and Mantle doesn't need this as a PRIMARYREDIRECT. Station1 (talk) 22:41, 8 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
Maybe direct to Mick instead? Mickey Mantle seems to be primary by long-term significance. Crouch, Swale (talk) 09:02, 9 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
Nothing on the dab page Mick would be called "The Mick" other than the TV series. Mickey Mantle may have more long term significance, but that significance is under his name. He was only occasionally, not primarily or commonly, known as The Mick, and it's unlikely anyone would search for him or expect to find him at that somewhat obscure nickname as opposed to his well-known real name.

Redirect The Mick to Mick. The derogatory term is another potential meaning, and the TV series does not have clear long-term significance. — BarrelProof (talk) 18:56, 9 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
Oppose, as Crouch and BarrelProof, The derogatory term is obvious primary if any, and the TV series does not have long-term significance In ictu oculi (talk) 08:40, 10 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
Support DAB at The Mick, disambiguating Mickey Mantle and the show.--Ortizesp (talk) 01:32, 14 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
