ArrestingArresting, Germany – No clear primary topic, Arrest has 4,281 views, Arresting gear has 3,654 compared with only 23[[1]] for the village. Google, Images and Books only return the generic meanings. Arresting (village) is another possibility if the country qualifier is ambiguous with the generic meaning happening in Germany.

  • Support redirect to arrest maybe In ictu oculi (talk) 17:51, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support move and retarget to Arrest. O.N.R. (talk) 18:19, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support (strongly) per nom. "Arresting" should absolutely redirect to the disambiguation page Arrest (disambiguation). No clear primary topic for this title — and if there was one, it wouldn't be the village. The safest bet is to have the basename "Arresting" redirect to the disambiguation page.

  • Support per nom, and those above. BD2412 T 18:25, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. "Arresting" is a general word in English and so it should either refer to the act of arresting or a disambiguation page. The Commons category linked to from this article looks like it's about the act of arresting - the category about the German town is at "Arresting, Germany".

    I moved the Commons category a few days ago but forgot to fix it here, thanks for doing so. Crouch, Swale (talk) 09:11, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
