This is a contested technical request (permalink) Wbm1058 (talk) 10:30, 22 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
But there are no Giant market, Giant markets, Giant market (disambiguation) or Giant markets (disambiguation) pages, and in any case, the proposal is Giant Markets. No matter what, 'Giant Food Markets of Broome County, New York' is very clearly not the WP:COMMONNAME. 180.183.5.97 (talk) 09:46, 17 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
  • Support per nom, but include a {{distinguish}} hatnote to the dab Giant Food, which lists two better-known supermarket chains named Giant. I don't think either of them are ever referred to as "Giant Markets," but a reader who knows them only as "Giant" could plausibly try that as a search term. We can't help that there are companies with similar names, but we can include hatnotes to minimize confusion. --BDD (talk) 22:01, 24 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
Suggest {{For-text|other supermarket chains named Giant|[[Giant Food (disambiguation)]]}} 183.89.6.191 (talk) 08:47, 25 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
Yes, that would do fine. --BDD (talk) 16:09, 25 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
But in this case, not enough disambiguation from what, exactly?
And regardless, wouldn't the proposed hatnote handle this?
Does Giant Hypermarket not comply with WP:TITLE? How about Fast Car? 183.89.6.191 (talk) 08:16, 26 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
