Requested move 1 February 2016 edit
- 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. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: Move. No objections in over a week, and the proposal makes complete sense. The former names will all redirect to Billy Williams and William Williams, respectively. Hopefully context will make fixing the incoming links clear, but knowledgeable editors may wish to keep an eye on the fixes to make sure. Cúchullain t/c 16:17, 9 February 2016 (UTC)

– While I'm not too familiar with any kind of rugby, it doesn't look like there's a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC among these similarly named people. I propose unambiguous titles, redirecting the current ones to their respective dabs. Per WP:NCPDAB, I usually try to avoid disambiguating with year of birth, but with such common names, it seems to be the best option. Both players currently titled (rugby) were dual-code, and all five of these people were Welsh. --BDD (talk) 20:24, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
