Ewart Potgieter (rugby union) → Ewart Potgieter – No disambiguation needed as no Ewart Potgieter page exists, however it is currently locked for administrators only of which I am not one. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 20:16, 11 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 09:03, 12 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Rugbyfan22: queried move request: there is a deleted page Ewart Potgieter: "Ewart Potgieter (born Edward Frederick Potgieter on December 28, 1932 – April 4, 1997) was a South African boxer. Ewart Potgieter is also listed by the Guinness Book of World Records as the 3rd tallest professional boxer in history. ..." :: see AfD Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jim Cully.

Seems to be little coverage of the boxer, so doesn't qualify for WP:GNG. Only news relating to his height which isn't enough for notability. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 10:29, 12 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Support as this is the only article for the name. BegbertBiggs (talk) 14:19, 19 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
Support per nom. This would also help with the recreation problem. -2pou (talk) 18:06, 19 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
