Jimmy Stewart (disambiguation) → Jimmy Stewart — The target page is a redirect to an article, so the WP:RM process is necessary. --Una Smith (talk) 20:19, 26 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Support. Editors contributing to the article about the American actor Jimmy Stewart decline to put that article here. So, clearly, this disambiguation page should occupy the ambiguous base name in order that incoming links can be disambiguated. For example, incoming links that intend the American actor can be fixed to point directly to the article about that actor. --Una Smith (talk) 20:19, 26 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
Oppose quite strongly. Jimmy Stewart is primarily used of the actor, in our sense of WP:PRIMARYUSAGE; those who type it in should find him. His article should link to the disambiguation page. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 23:13, 26 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
Oppose- Page views show that the actor is indeed the WP:PRIMARYUSAGE of the search term.The actor gets around 2k hits a day, the rest of the people on the dab list get around 10 a day.Fingerz ^On'Roids 05:38, 27 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. Clear primary use. And the incoming links to Jimmy Stewart (not all that many) appear to be all intended for the actor, except for one that I fixed. See also recent move discussions at Talk:James Stewart (actor) and Talk:James Stewart. Station1 (talk) 05:48, 27 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. Obvious primary usage is obvious. And primary. No other Jimmy Stewart is nearly as likely a search term as the actor. Jafeluv (talk) 09:08, 27 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
