Colin MacKay → Colin MacKay (footballer) – The one-sentence stub for the Australian rules footballer is not primary over the entry delineating Colin MacKay (journalist, born 1944). The link Colin MacKay should redirect to the Colin Mackay disambiguation page. A generally related nomination positing Colin MacKay (journalist, born 1944) → Colin MacKay (journalist) is currently active at Talk:Colin MacKay (journalist, born 1944)#Requested move 6 January 2024. — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 19:59, 14 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Support – Per nom. Svartner (talk) 00:14, 15 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Strong support Colin Mackay (journalist) has 248 views (and also probably needs to be moved), Colin MacKay (journalist, born 1944) has 242, Colin Mackay (writer) has 197, Colin Mackay (judge) has 16 and Colin B. Mackay has 14 compared to only 14[[1]] for the footballer. I'm not sure the capitalization difference of the "K" if sufficient but in any case Colin MacKay (journalist, born 1944) has significantly more views.

Support per nom. No primary topic and MacKay and Mackay are used pretty much interchangeably anyway, even in official sources. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:06, 16 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Support. The capitalisation of the letter after “Mac” is TOOSMALL a SMALLDETAIL. That letter is highly variably capitalised or not, it’s just styling. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 01:01, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
