Primary topic?[edit]

I admit there's not much case for primary topic here, but there are only WP:TWODABS and this was the one with more page views. Readers can find the other through the hat note just as easily as on a two-item dab page. That said, I don't object to disambiguating, but if that happens "Lorton station" can't redirect to a disambiguated title, or else there's no point in the move. It should either become a dab page, or redirect to one.--Cúchullain ^t/c 18:48, 12 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

How may page views are there altogether? I don't think either page has significant views anyway, so it doesn't matter. The pageview comparison only works on more popular articles. epicgenius (talk) 19:29, 12 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's harder to say as this one has moved, but until then it got 1112 views in the last 90 days, compared to 492 for the other, so it got over twice the views. Two item dab pages are a bad idea when one article is more prominent, as it sends everyone to a dab page, even though the other article can be distinguished in just as many clicks with a hat note. But yeah, neither article has a huge number of views.--Cúchullain ^t/c 19:52, 12 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
