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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: MOVED to Derby (French car) (non-admin closure) Danski454 (talk) 17:21, 13 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Derby (automobile) → Derby (French automobile) – There is also Derby (Canadian automobile) and Volkswagen Derby. All three are defunct, so it seems odd for any of them to be the primary topic of the term for purposes of this disambiguator. bd2412 T 22:23, 5 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Support per nomination. As with Derby (film), which should redirect to Derby (disambiguation)#Films, the incomplete disambiguation Derby (automobile) should redirect to Derby (disambiguation)#Brands and enterprises. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 07:03, 6 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
Obvious easy quick support but @BD2412: any reason why you brought this to RM rather than WP:MOVE/technical move? In ictu oculi (talk) 07:15, 6 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
- In my experience, sometimes things that seem uncontroversial end up stirring a hornet's nest. I should mention that I am also contemplating whether Derby itself really has a primary topic, and came across this and the films issue while examining that question. bd2412 T 12:32, 6 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
Prefer Derby (French car) – Using 'automobile' as a disambiguator is unnecessarily verbose, and contradicts WP:CONCISE. Not to mention, the main article was moved to car from automobile years ago. RGloucester — ☎ 14:18, 6 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
Support Derby (French car) Per RGloucester, other than topics like Plymouth (automobile) where automobile is more common, we should follow the main article (Car) in the case of Derby (Canadian automobile) I suspect that like Plymouth, "automobile" is more common for that topic so should be OK as is however since both are cars/automobiles we can't move Derby (Canadian automobile) to Derby (automobile).
