Officially being renamed 'Jackson College'

Jackson Community College is now Jackson College. I'm wondering where pages should be moved to. I think this article belongs at Jackson College, since it is the most common and likely result. The disambiguation page can be moved to Jackson College (disambiguation) and an {{otheruses}} template used. Thoughts? American Eagle (talk) 04:53, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

I'm working to get this completed as follows:
And that's all. I'm seeking administrative help to get this done. American Eagle (talk) 03:24, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: move both. -- tariqabjotu 13:25, 29 June 2013 (UTC)


– Jackson Community College was officially renamed Jackson College ([1], [2]). The pages currently disambiguated at Jackson College are a small religious institution that burned down in the American Civil War, a school that absorbed into a Hawaiian college, and four schools that are obviously only listed for reference.

  • Pages views for the articles considered, circa May 2013: [3]
  • Jackson College for Women - 46 times
  • Jackson College (Tennessee) - 55 times
  • Jackson [Community] College (Michigan) - 518 times
  • I know that pageviews do not determine the primary topic. However, the guideline states that an article should only be the primary topic if it is "much more likely than any other topic, and more likely than all the other topics combined". We have three candidates for the primary topic: an 85-year-old institution with an enrollment of over 10,000, a name-only division of a school (for Women), or a small trade school that burned down in the 1800s. I feel that the gap between the Michigan school and the two others is wide enough to make it the primary topic. American Eagle (talk) 00:53, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
