John Savage (actor) → John Savage – "John Savage (actor)" is the clear primary topic by usage. Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 12:17, 4 November 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

Support per nom, seems like he dominates page views.--Ortizesp (talk) 14:32, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Does not outweigh all other John Savages by long-term significance. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:42, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support, more popular than every other candidate combined: see Massviews [1]. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 15:36, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. We would need more persuasive evidence that this recent John Savage has primacy than these page views, which show what the readers found but not necessarily what they wanted. Andrewa (talk) 20:35, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
