Shaquan Davis → Shaquan Davis (American football) – no WP:PRIMARYTOPIC Joeykai (talk) 04:50, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support, create DAB at basename.--Ortizesp (talk) 02:06, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose American footballer is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC compared to the association footballer who plays in a league with not much coverage. One international appearance for the Jamaica national football team does not take away from the fact people are way more likely to be looking for the American footballer, as the NFL has way more coverage/following than the Jamaica Premier League. Shaquan Davis (footballer) only just about scrapes by WP:GNG, and so hatnotes work better and more efficiently than an unnecessary DAB page. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:22, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- But he doesn't ever appeared to have actually played in an NFL game! American topics do not automatically become primary topic. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:18, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - I'm not American (and have previously been accused of being anti American), but he is the primary topic in my view. Joseph2302 (talk) 23:07, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    - Your argument was that the NFL has way more coverage/following than the Jamaica Premier League, although he has never even played a game for the NFL. This suggested that you thought he was primary topic just because he played American football. -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:45, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
