Yilgarn (disambiguation) → Yilgarn – There is no primary topic, so "Yilgarn" ought to be a disambiguation page, per WP:MALPLACED. Relisted. BDD (talk) 16:45, 21 May 2014 (UTC) Mitch Ames (talk) 13:28, 30 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Question Why is the craton no longer the primary topic? -- JHunterJ (talk) 15:04, 30 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Why was it the primary topic in the first place? Mitch Ames (talk) 11:46, 1 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
You'd have to ask the editor who created the redirect eight years ago. But it's been the primary topic stably ever since. -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:09, 1 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Yilgarn" was created as a redirect to Yilgarn, Western Australia (now "Shire of Yilgarn") a couple of months before. ^walk victor falk^talk 00:08, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support Even if there were no other Yilgarns, "Yilgarn Craton" would be a better title, this is a case where wp:precise has the upper hand over wp:concise. As it is there are too many things related to the Yilgarn area to be a wp:priamrytopic. ^walk victor falk^talk 23:58, 2 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
No one is suggesting Yilgarn Craton be moved from that current, better title, so the application of WP:PRECISE and WP:CONCISE to that article's title don't impact the titling of the dab page or the primary topic of the title "Yilgarn". "Too many things" is also not a primary topic criterion. -- JHunterJ (talk) 14:38, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: WP:FIXDABLINKS applies here. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 14:32, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support a solution where "Yilgarn" is or redirect to the disambiguation page. Coreyemotela (talk) 19:37, 21 May 2014 (UTC).[reply]
Yilgarn redirecting to Yilgarn (disambiguation) would land it back on WP:MALPLACED -- JHunterJ (talk) 19:55, 21 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. I see no evidence that any of the subdivisions of the Craton upsets the longstanding primacy of the Craton. bd2412 T 18:03, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per BD2412. Given the long-standing status of the Craton as the primary topic at the base title, the burden is on the proposer to demonstrate why the current status should change. No substantive case in this regard is made. Xoloz (talk) 16:32, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
