Melua (surname) → Melua – Move the surname page to the base name over the current redirect to Katie Melua. Katie Melua is not known by the mononym and is not the primary topic (although as a notable name-holder the surname article might mention her more prominently).

• Oppose Judging from NGRAMS which shows a massive increase in usage coinciding with her popularity, Katie Melua is indeed the PRIMARYTOPIC here. (t · c) buidhe 01:02, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Wouldnt the above somehow need to separate her given name from the search? It is common to refer to people by their surname once the full name has been established within a piece. My interpretation of this logic would seem to suggest that Trump should go to Donald Trump. -2pou (talk) 15:54, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
  • That may be so, but Katie Melua is not known as "Melua". Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 08:51, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
• Support per nom.--Ortizesp (talk) 00:17, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
• Support she is not known as Melua - proposal is logical solution. The surname is the primary target. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 12:29, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
• Support since my inquiry had no response, and it doesnt seem to make sense if she does not go by a mononym. -2pou (talk) 23:39, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
