Requested move 31 August 2022

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: disambiguated at basename. Clear consensus here that the neurophysiology concept is not a primary topic. There's more support overall for a disambiguation page than for the rail concept being the primary topic, especially post-relist.

• Shunting → Shunting (neurophysiology)
• Shunting (rail) → Shunting

– I believe that the word "shunting" most commonly refers to the railway operation and have never heard it used in other contexts. I am aware my interests skew this a little, but looking at WMCloud Massviews Analysis, the railway operation has far more views than this page. I would also tolerate "shunting" being a disambiguation page and the title of this page being somewhat different, but I strongly believe that this is not the primary topic for "shunting" Computerfan0 (talk) 15:25, 31 August 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. lettherebedarklight, 晚安, おやすみ, ping me when replying 16:20, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

• Support 1, oppose 2, and move Shunting (disambiguation) to Shunting. 162 etc. (talk) 15:56, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
• Support both. Srnec (talk) 01:14, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
• Replace with disambiguation page at the base name, by moving this article and the dab page -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 08:02, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
• Support the rail meaning has 2,810 views compared with only 128[[1]] for this one, if anything the rail meaning is primary but the DAB may be better. Crouch, Swale (talk) 08:19, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

  If considering pageviews, I'd also include articles such as Shunt (electrical) and Shunt (medical), which can be referred to as "shunting". 162 etc. (talk) 05:17, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
