WB (disambiguation)WB — possibly malplaced disambiguation page. R'n'B (call me Russ) 13:37, 16 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

I am proposing this move for discussion, rather than simply doing it boldly, because there seems to have been some uncertainty about whether there is a primary topic for WB. To summarize the guidelines, an ambiguous title like "WB" should take readers to the primary topic if there is one; but, if there is not, then the disambiguation page should use that title (rather than WB (disambiguation). I am opening this discussion to see if there is any consensus about whether a primary topic exists. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 13:29, 16 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose - I see no problem with the status quo, seems like a move for the sake of moving. Ed Fitzgerald t / c 22:27, 16 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
  • Support - Move the dab page to the ambiguous page name (ie, WB) unless someone manages to make a persuasive argument for one of the topics on the page being the primary topic. The history of WB shows editors arguing over which topic is the primary topic. To me, that is strong evidence there is no primary topic. Move the dab page, and disambiguous editors dab the incoming links ... all 3 of them: W, September 2006, and Acharya Kuber Nath Rai. --Una Smith (talk) 03:54, 17 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
  • Support. I don't see how this is controversial in any way. Disambiguation pages should only be named "X (disambiguation)" if X has primary topic. See here. Jafeluv (talk) 10:26, 29 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
  • Support or redirect to the movie studio, since it's the most likely term. 76.66.193.20 (talk) 07:42, 30 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
