Friendly → Friendly (disambiguation) – WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT into Agreeableness specifically because: The article at Defamation is the primary topic for five terms: "defamation", "libel", "slander", "vilification", and "calumny". Even though there is a film with the title Libel, the article at Defamation is still the primary topic for that title and the film must be disambiguate.

@Prisencolin: So much about defamation, but what article do you propose to be a primary meaning of "friendly"? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:19, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
friendliness currently redirects imto agreeableness, which is where I got the idea. To be honest I'm not even sure I agree with that target.--Prisencolin (talk) 03:26, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. "Agreeableness" is not an appropriate target for "Friendly", especially where there are so many actual encyclopedic topics called "Friendly" on the dab page. This move would confuse much more than it helps. Dohn joe (talk) 15:23, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I am inclined to agree with Dohn joe. Nothing suggests to me that people want "agreeableness" from "friendly", especially considering the fact that most of the DAB page has nothing to do with any of that (places/people called Friendly). Nohomersryan (talk) 21:53, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Per above. --В²C ☎ 00:33, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: although "Friendship" or something similar is the commonly used noun related to "Friendly" in normal usage, readers are unlikely to seek adjectives in an encyclopedia. The dab page is appropriate. PamD 10:45, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
