Peter Maloney → Peter Maloney (politician) – Although I'm the original creator here, I did so at a time when neither of the other two hatnoted articles existed yet; both were created after this one was. I don't believe, however, that this one is so much more notable than the other two that he would qualify as the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for their shared name — he should also be moved to a disambiguated title, with the plain name converted to a dab page.

Support per nom. Although the politician could perhaps have the greater claim to "long-term significance", the actor article (such as it is) consistantly gets a much higher share of the pageviews. So perhaps in this case it's best to say there's no primary topic. PC78 (talk) 00:07, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
