Wesley (footballer, born 5 March 2000)Wesley Augusto Henn Marth – Per WP:NCDAB. (footballer, born 13 March 2000) is too pedantic in my opinion. Same logic applies for Wesley (footballer, born 13 March 2000). Nehme1499 12:31, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • Support It is unlikely that the average reader will know the exact birthdate of the player and more likely they will know the full name. --SuperJew (talk) 14:59, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Support - in this case, full name is better than full DOB. GiantSnowman 18:53, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose full name. Support Wesley Henn Marth. Doesn't use middle name at all. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:56, 11 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Weak oppose as per WP:COMMONNAME, I don't his full legal name is used commonly enough that it would help the average reader.--Ortizesp (talk) 20:30, 11 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose per WP:COMMONNAME. KingSkyLord (talk | contribs) 20:20, 13 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Support. WP:COMMONNAME is bogus argument: we cannot move the article to Wesley. The discussion is how to disambiguate. Per WP:QUALIFIER, (Using an alternative name that the subject is also commonly called in English reliable sources) is the preferred way, and the subject's full legal name is a means of natural disambiguation. I checked, and Wesley Augusto Henn Marth is amply used in sources (e.g. https://www.espn.co.uk/football/player/_/id/282587/wesley-augusto-henn-marth). Parenthetical disambiguation via birth date should be the last resort, and is particularly useless here. No such user (talk) 11:38, 18 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Support. I agree with No such user's assessment in favor of natural disambiguation. Adumbrativus (talk) 08:12, 31 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
