The result of the move request was: move the page, per the discussion below, with a hatnote for the record producer on this article. Dekimasuよ! 02:40, 27 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

Kevin Briggs (police officer) → Kevin Briggs – The record producer, Kevin "She'kspere" Briggs is not the primary topic, a Google search, Google News search and Google Videos search return an overwhelming number of sources for the police officer (compared to others of that name). Additionally, it appears that the record producer rarely uses his name without his nickname. Were this on its own insufficient, only two articles exist for individuals of this name which makes the dabpage unnecessary disambiguation.

Comment. Perhaps you could show your sources and statistics here to support your case? Thanks. Zarcadia (talk) 14:58, 20 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
- @Zarcadia: Google web search Video search (most videos are of his TED presentation, starting at page 5, he is no longer the "Kevin Briggs" being referred to). In any case, I've clarified my original request in case I was unclear. Also, please disregard what I said about Google News results, the searches I was referring to was of one of those who he dissuaded from jumping (Kevin Berthia).

Tentative Support. Although Google News [1] and Google Books [2] don't necessarily suggest he's WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for the name in general, they do suggest so between the two we currently have articles for. If articles for any other people with that name are created in the future the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC issue can always be revisited. Zarcadia (talk) 15:57, 21 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
