Primary topic edit

Currently (April 2021) place names are the primary, and are still in the order by country name. Sandringham, Norfolk is the place from which other Commonwealth references take their name. However, Wikipedia:Disambiguation is not 100% in agreement with that because of POV. Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Disambiguation pages also does not have a guideline other than most common first.

@Group29: I'm not sure what point you're trying to make here, but most of what you say isn't true. "... because of POV"? Guidance on primary topics is at WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. You'll see from the RM linked above that at that time there was no consensus: you're welcome to try again. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 17:52, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
Everything I stated above is true. I had viewed the discussion and resulting no consensus. Let me clarify, the POV seems to be the problem in that just because one entry is the source for the name of the others, that does not automatically make it the primary. I don't see a way around that, nor any joy in further proposals. Group29 (talk) 00:13, 13 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
