On 26 March 2013, it was proposed that this article be moved to Jon Cooper. The result of the discussion was no consensus.

Comments

This should be the default Jon Cooper page. NHL head coach is much more notable than NFL player who played a few games. 205.156.36.1 (talk) 13:28, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Redirected this page to the Jon Cooper page. Scp333 (talk) 13:46, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

The result of the move request was: no consensus at this time. I agree that it's too soon to ascertain which of the Jon/Jonathan Coopers will become the primary topic, so status quo for now. Miniapolis 14:02, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Jon Cooper (ice hockey) → Jon Cooper – He is now an NHL Head Coach, much more notable than the other Jon Cooper who is a former NFL player who only played a few games. Scp333 (talk) 16:46, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support. A simple hat note can direct to Jon Cooper (American football) and I see no evidence of the upcoming American football prospect Jonathan Cooper being called "Jon" so a disam page doesn't seem like a huge necessity, in my opinion. Even if the disam is kept, still agree with the move. Ravendrop 02:09, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
~~Weak Support~~Neutral I'm fine with either of the current dab system, or the dab system being proposed here. Canuck^{89 (what's up?)} 08:02, April 1, 2013 (UTC)
Neutral With there being three articles with similar names I would lean towards leaving it as is with an eye towards reviewing it in a couple years if he has been a successful NHL coach and search results indicate its the primary topic. Right now I wouldn't think it is much more primary than a two year NFL player. And with most people shortening the name Jonathan to Jon even if the player doesn't I think all the topics as it stands are probably equally notable so a disambig page is the best option probably. -DJSasso (talk) 13:03, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
