– Better understanding of the subject of the article in question. There are a large number of other football players called "Biro-Biro" in Brazilian football, which was causing confusion in any searches. When trying to redirect the page to "footballer, born 1959", someone changed the edits causing confusion in the redirects. Svartner (talk) 12:16, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I haven't see any evidence you provided against Biro-Biro (footballer, born 1959) as the primary topic before these undiscussed moves. It's not confused that the oldest professional one generally has the most achievements to be a primary topic. NmWTfs85lXusaybq (talk) 13:37, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, just to follow the pattern of other articles involving footballer names where the search term leads to disambiguation page, and the players are arranged in a list with a brief description. "Biro-Biro" in Brazilian football points to several players, it is different from, for example, Pelé or Zico, where there is famously a more relevant footballer who inspired the others. To generate fewer inaccuracies in the search and maintain the equivalent standard in other similar articles, the redirection correction would be applied.

Support - no primary topic. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 17:02, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The 1994 one at least should be moved as the absence of the hyphen likely doesn't distinguish per WP:SMALLDETAILS. Crouch, Swale (talk) 18:35, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I also agree with that additional suggestion as well. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 18:20, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
