• Trevis → Trevis (constructor)
• Trevis (disambiguation) → Trevis

– The car constructor seems to be of fleeting importance, and I therefore see no claim to it being the primary topic of the term. BD2412 T 19:29, 1 May 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. ああ、またか。晚安。 11:31, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

• Support as per nom. 162 etc. (talk) 20:42, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
• Support per nom. No clear primary topic. Paintspot Infez (talk) 22:28, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
• Oppose Literally nothing to disambiguate with, per WP:NAMELIST, there are no extremely notable "Trevis"'s. If the page is deleted for non-notability, then I'd support the disambiguation being moved there - otherwise, no. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:19, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
  • The car constructor literally gets less than 1% of the hits all possible senses. It shouldn't need to be deleted to be discounted. The surname as a surname is more notable. BD2412 T 23:34, 1 May 2022 (UTC)

    Except there is no specific page for the surname. With nothing to disambiguate that is a believable competing primary topic I do not see the necessity to move. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 02:10, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

• Support, although this should be turned into a true DAB and a separate page made for the name/surname.--Ortizesp (talk) 02:03, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
  • @Ortizesp: I would not object to that in principle. I think that we usually have combination given name/surname pages where the names have the same origin, which I doubt is the case here, but there are not enough people with just the given name or just the surname to have different pages for each of those instances.

• Support per nomination, 162 etc. and Paintspot Infez. The two-sentence stub delineating the racing car constructor from 70 years ago is not the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 18:00, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
• Comment/oppose for now - I'm not overly knowledgeable of the specific subject area (1950s American open-wheel car racing) or the sources surrounding it, but I suspect the sources surrounding this subject are far more likely to be offline (and most likely far easier to access to those in the US), but without someone knowledgeable going through sources I'm reticent to comment on the notability of this subject (which may be greater than it appears today per WP:NOTTEMPORARY). However, based upon previous decisions regarding articles like Gordon Schroeder I do wonder if it would be better to move this article to a title like Floyd Trevis, although such a decision would require said sourcing to be found in order to establish further information. If this article were moved then moving the disambiguation page to the base title would make a lot more sense, but currently the constructor is the only article at that exact title.
