Requested move

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: page moved. Neither the destination nor its talk page have significant content nor history; As noted below, the two-way DAB is unnecessary. Andrewa (talk) 02:53, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Francisco de la Torre (composer) → Francisco de la Torre — The primary referent for the name is the composer. The page was moved without discussion to create a two-term DAB page for a fencer (born 1952), whose notability isn't even remotely near that of the composer. (Google backs me up: try it yourself.) Moreover, none of the links were fixed, leaving this article an orphan. Rather than fix those immediately, or put this move up as uncontroversial and risk a conflict, or move the DAB page and redirect the title back here and risk a conflict, I thought it best to just see where consensus lies. Also:

Support Primary topic. No need for a disambiguation page per wp:twodabs, a hate note on each page is sufficient. ^walk victor falk^talk 20:11, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- You're right about the DAB page. I guess I was on autopilot. There is a user who likes to call these sorts of move "improperly formatted" if you don't mention that a DAB page needs moving. But in this case it really is no harm to just delete the DAB page and use a hatnoe. (I think only one is needed, no?) Srnec (talk) 22:20, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
