Requested move 15 September 2015

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. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: no consensus. An interestingly short discussion for six participants. But with reasonable arguments on either side and the voters evenly split this was never ending as anything but no consensus. Jenks24 (talk) 07:23, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Afraid → Afraid (disambiguation) – Redirect Afraid to Fear per WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. Steel1943 (talk) 22:38, 15 September 2015 (UTC) Relisted. Jenks24 (talk) 09:35, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support, clear primary topic of the term. bd2412 T 14:13, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: readers are unlikely to look up an adjective when what they want is the related noun, so "Fear" is not the Primary Topic. PamD 13:14, 22 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per PamD. Unlikely search term for "Fear". Dohn joe (talk) 13:59, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per PamD. older ≠ wiser 14:08, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support, largely because it is better for disambiguation pages to be suffixed with " (disambiguation)". --SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:59, 1 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
