CimarosaCimarosa (disambiguation) – I propose that the Cimarosa article become a redirect to Domenico Cimarosa, with the existing page renamed. Domenico Cimarosa appears to be the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for this surname. There are two people and a mis-spelling on the page, and he appears to be by far the most common:

  • Wikinav shows 100% of the Outgoing Pageviews for Cimarosa as being to Domenico Cimarosa.
  • Google Books Ngram Viewer shows a clear preference for the full name of the composer in English, even during the actor's career.

  • Support in principle: when I did a bulk fix of links to surnames in 2020, Cimarosa was our 19th most mislinked surname with 42 incoming links, all intended for Domenico. However, rather than moving this page, we can simply edit it to become a redirect (WP:BLAR). If we did move the page, WP:ONEOTHER would apply, so all we need is a {{redirect}} hatnote on Domenico Cimarosa referring to the actor. Certes (talk) 22:25, 14 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
