Another George Gunn[edit]

There's a Scottish writer/poet by that name. He probably doesn't warrant a page, but we should mention him on top of this article, just for people who were looking for that one. [1] 99.11.160.111 (talk) 19:53, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If the Scottish writer/poet merits an article (and from your link it looks as though he does) and someone writes one, then it would be appropriate to add the standard disambiguation text at the top of the cricketer's article, including a wl to the other article. But I don't think that I've ever seen something like that done when the other person lacks an article. A reader only has to get as far as "George Gunn (June 13, 1879, Hucknall, Nottinghamshire – June 29, 1958, Cuckfield, Sussex) was an English cricketer" and they will know that it's not about the Scottish writer. That involves reading hardly any more words than if the other George Gunn was mentioned at the top of the article. JH (talk page) 20:28, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 12 March 2020[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Consensus to move. (closed by non-admin page mover) SITH (talk) 14:41, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

– :Pageview analysis over two years shows that the cricketer gets less than 50% of the combined traffic for the five people named "George Gunn" on the disambiguation page. George Ward Gunn alone gets nearly as many views. BD2412 T 04:17, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support, seems reasonable. Harrias ^talk 10:56, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nomination and Harrias. Among the six men who are listed upon the George Gunn (disambiguation) page, the cricketer from a hundred years ago is certainly not the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 17:29, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
