– Mr. Ravichandran is mononymous personality and has been so throughout his 4 decades of film career. There's no need of using his initials as a disambiguater since Ravichandran is enough to recognise. https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/kannada/2021/may/31/i-am-very-dominating-says-veteran-actor-ravichandran-2309620.html https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/kannada/movies/news/kannadiga-teaser-to-be-released-tomorrow-on-ravichandrans-birthday/articleshow/83059550.cms https://www.deccanherald.com/entertainment/entertainment-news/ravichandran-big-dreamer-who-sometimes-lost-his-way-991254.html https://www.deccanherald.com/entertainment/entertainment-news/happy-birthday-ravichandran-when-juhi-chawla-spoke-about-working-with-the-sandalwood-star-in-premaloka-991688.html AppuSunkad (talk) 18:06, 8 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Elli (talk | contribs) 18:22, 8 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
Note: Ravichandran titles a page with significant content and so is ineligible as a target "new" title unless it is also proposed to be renamed. This request has been altered to reflect that fact. P.I. Ellsworth  ed. put'r there 09:28, 11 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Multiple people have the name, and the person who initiated this request moved the disambiguation page away and retargeted the resulting redirect, undiscussed (which I have undone). Not clear that this person is the primary topic for this name. Elli (talk | contribs) 18:22, 8 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Move to Ravichandran (Kannada actor)? It already redirects here. Some disambiguation seems necessary since there are two other articles about mononymous Ravichandran topics already, and no argument has been put forth that this one is much more notable than all the other Ravichandran topics. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 22:40, 8 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Move to Ravichandran (Kannada actor). per above. --Gpkp [utc] 07:11, 11 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Move to Ravichandran (Kannada actor): Pageviews are not convincing enough for this subject to be a WP:PTOPIC. Additional disambiguation per WP:NCPDAB vis-a-vis Ravichandran (Tamil actor). -- Ab207 (talk) 14:24, 12 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
