Billy Richardson → Billy Richardson (footballer, born 1920) – Ambiguous with Billy Richardson (footballer, born 1896), Billy Richardson (Pony Express rider), and possibly others at the William Richardson dabpage. Article receives minimal traffic, not the primary topic. 162 etc. (talk) 03:43, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom and redirect basename to William Richardson. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:48, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support the 1920 footballer has 13 views but the Pony Express rider has 40 and the 1896 one has 3. Indeed it should go to the William DAB per WP:DABCOMBINE. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:21, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nomination, Necrothesp and Crouch, Swale. The nine-sentence stub delineating the footballer who played during 1940s does not indicate primacy over the combined notability of entries for other men named "Billy Richardson". Billy Richardson should indeed redirect to the William Richardson disambiguation page. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 17:36, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
