The result of the proposal was moved. --BDD (talk) 16:16, 18 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rodney Leinhardt → Rodney (wrestler) – He never used his last name in WWE. He's always just been "Rodney." GeicoHen (talk) 16:35, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose; natural disambiguation is preferred over parenthetical. Whatever name he used in WWE, it wasn't "Rodney (wrestler)", and readers certainly won't type "Rodney (wrestler)" into the search box. bobrayner (talk) 21:59, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Don't forget what else it says: obscure or lesser known names must not be used. --George Ho (talk) 03:58, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I doubt that a reader would type in Contra (video game) or Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (film) either but that was never an issue with either article.--64.229.165.126 (talk) 21:37, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support As he was never known by his full name in any public sense, it's not a natural disambiguator. Just Rodney, who was a wrestler (no reasonable reader should assume (wrestler) is part of the name). InedibleHulk (talk) 12:11, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support per Hulk. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 18:48, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
