Joyce brothers → Joyce brothers (disambiguation) – Came up in Articles for deletion/Joyce brothers (which just closed as keep this morning; I don't think this would be a too soon procedural issue because of that, but excuse me if it is) that perhaps this move would be preferred. If this page is being kept, then I think the least we can do is make this move and redirect the current name to Joyce Brothers to reduce the SURPRISE which I expressed my concern about in the AfD.

• Support. I'm not convinced that either pair of brothers, considered as a pair specifically, is even an encyclopedic topic; having this title serve as a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT to the psychologist seems much more likely to help the readerbase at large.

  I wasn't (and still am not) convinced either, hence the AfD, but apparently the page has enough dedicated support that it's gonna stay around regardless. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 17:44, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

• Support per my comments at the AfD. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 18:17, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
• Support per nomination, ModernDayTrilobite and Extraordinary Writ. Dr. Joyce Brothers is indeed the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 03:10, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
• Reluctant oppose. Would have liked a different result at the AfD personally, but the status quo is correct per WP:DIFFCAPS. 162 etc. (talk) 16:53, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

  Depending on the interpretation, I think we can keep the primary redirect here and still comply with WP:DIFFCAPS. Specifically, my view is that redirecting this title to Joyce Brothers would be in accordance with the portion of DIFFCAPS that holds that a well-known concept may still be the primary topic for a variant or incorrect spelling, even if a much less well-known subject uses that spelling.

  Seconding this in particular. In those prior deletion discussions, there seemed to be a struggle to find the term being used in sources in a way that matched with this dab page's usage. Regardless if that's enough reason to delete, surely it's enough to call Dr. Brothers the more well-known subject of this particular name. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 16:31, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

  we can make the original name a redirict 173.72.3.91 (talk) 20:35, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

  A redirect to where? The disambiguation page or the article? QuietHere (talk | contributions) 00:29, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

• Support it is a disambiguation page so it should have disambiguation in the title to make sure people do not confuse it with an article
