Wedgewood (disambiguation) β Wedgewood β Currently, Wedgewood is a primary redirect to British brand Wedgwood. However, I see no evidence that the latter is known as "Wedgewood", and it should not be the primary topic for the other spelling. 162 etc. (talk) 13:35, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

- Support the term "Wedgewood" only appears one in the target and appears to be talking about other works. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:08, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose. Very common incorrect spelling of Wedgwood (probably more commonly seen than the correct spelling), which is the overwhelmingly primary topic for these homophones. Clearly the current situation is the best for our users' navigation. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:47, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
- Do you have evidence from reliable secondary sources that this is the case? 162 etc. (talk) 17:10, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
- You expect a reliable source that says something is a common misspelling? It's called WP:COMMONSENSE! But for examples on a quick Google search: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], etc, etc. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:04, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
- "Common sense" means that our encyclopedia shouldn't base article titles around sources such as eBay listings and Pinterest blogs. 162 etc. (talk) 15:21, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
- You are completely failing to see the point! These references merely prove that the name is commonly misspelled (which should actually be blatantly obvious, given it's the intuitive spelling) and we are therefore doing no service to our users to change a primary redirect. They have no influence (and nor should they) on the title of the actual article, which is at the correct spelling. But that is not the issue here. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:34, 9 November 2023 (UTC)

- Support. I am frankly questioning whether the porcelain manufacturer is even the real primary topic of the term, "Wedgwood". BD2412 T 17:13, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
