This is a contested technical request. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:34, 1 April 2020 (UTC)

• Oppose, as I think Ibrahimović is better suited to redirect to Zlatan Ibrahimović, the clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC.--Ortizesp (talk) 18:50, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
  • @Ortizesp: I wouldn't say so. From what I've seen, he is often referred to interchangeably by either his given name or surname. If Ibrahimović should redirect to him, then so should Zlatan. Personally, I don't think that should be the case. If someone was looking for him in the searchbar, they would be just as, if not more likely to type Zlatan as they would Ibrahimović.

• @KingSkyLord and Ortizesp: if Zlatan Ibrahimović is a clear main meaning to the general population and not only to football fans. Ibrahimović (surname) lists 3 footballers and a folk singer. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:38, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
  • @Anthony Appleyard: Found another one. KingSkyLord (talk | contribs) 01:53, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
• Oppose per Ortizesp. I'm far from being a football fan, but I am aware that "Ibrahimović" overwhelmingly refers to Zlatan Ibrahimović. Zlatan gets almost 1000 times the page views of the other people named Ibrahimović combined, and nothing in the other articles suggest any long-term significance rivaling Zlatan. feminist (talk) 05:08, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
• Oppose. "Ibrahimović" pointed to Zlatan for years until it was unilaterally changed to a redirect to this surname page in February. I concur with Zlatan being the WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT, so the previous setup should be re-implemented. Nohomersryan (talk) 22:22, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
