David Backes (ice hockey)David Backes – There are only two articles on Wikipedia about people named David Backes. I believe the hockey player should be at an undisambiguated title as I think he is the primary topic. The author's stub article can be dealt with by a simple hatnote.

See Talk:Claude Giroux for similar case. Canuck89 (have words with me) 01:58, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Won't be a problem, as David Backes (ice hockey) will remain as a redirect, and very small amount (15ish) of pages linking to David Backes are things such as user talk pages. Canuck89 (have words with me) 01:58, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • The best solution when there are only two articles is not to have a dabpage at all, but provide each page with a dab-capnote. However, incloming links to articles will still need to be fixed. Peterkingiron (talk) 20:45, 15 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
As I said above, see related discussion at Talk:Claude Giroux, and my other comment above about incoming links. Canuck89 (chat with me) 01:51, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Animal lover (Non-profit work)

[edit]

Backes has done a lot of charity work involving dog adoption. I believe it's noteworthy here. His nonprofit, David's Dogs, works with a shelter in St. Charles, MO, Five Acres Animal Shelter. From St. Louis Blues official page, David's Dogs: "The shelter has been dedicated to ending pet homelessness, promoting responsible pet ownership and advocating for animal welfare since 1973. Five Acres provides a much needed second chance for animals to find their forever home."

A few links/articles about his work:
