Bypass Disam, go straight to Ray Lewis (American football)

[edit]

Ray Lewis (American football) is one of the most well-known NFL players of the past 10+ years, and was a mvp of Super Bowl XXXV. Even if you took a liberal worldwide view, he more than qualifies as a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. If no one objects in the next week, Ray Lewis is going straight to Ray Lewis (American football), and there will be a hatnote at the top of the page for this disam page --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 02:56, 28 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]


I agree with the bypass suggestion. --TruthfulCynic 19:04, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support — Dab pages with names like "Foo (disambiguation)" often do get a surge in page views when the base page name "Foo" gets a surge. But, compared to the entries on it, this dab page is getting far too many page views. --Una Smith (talk) 05:49, 24 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • No, it not recentism, the subject has been in the league for 13 years, and most will agree his level of play over the past few years has dropped, nor has he done anything highly newsworthy to spike interest. He won the Super Bowl MVP in Jan. 2001. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 11:32, 24 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

While baseball is known as "America's national pastime," football is the most popular sport in the United States. According to the Harris Poll, professional football moved ahead of baseball as the fans' favorite in 1965, during the emergence of the NFL's challenger, the American Football League, as a major professional football league. Football has remained America's favorite sport ever since. In a Harris Poll conducted in 2008, the NFL was the favorite sport of as many people (30%) as the combined total of the next three professional sports – baseball (15%), auto racing (10%), and hockey (5%).[15] Additionally, football's American television viewership ratings now surpass those of other sports, although football season comprises far fewer games than the seasons of other sports

    • Lewis was the MVP of the Superbowl. Here's some info on that event:

The Super Bowl is the championship game of the National Football League, the premier association of professional American football. In most years, the Super Bowl is the most-watched American television broadcast. Many popular singers and musicians have performed during the event’s pre-game and halftime ceremonies. The day on which the Super Bowl is played is now considered to be a de facto American national holiday, called Super Bowl Sunday. Super Bowl Sunday is the second-largest U.S. food consumption day, after Thanksgiving Day

I never heard of the other subjects before. Which doesn't mean much other than I have nothing to say that a perusal of the articles will tell you.

Thank You.--Omarcheeseboro (talk) 20:41, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
