KSCA (disambiguation) → KSCA
KSCA → KSCA (FM)

– There just simply isn't a clear primary topic per a ~~world-wide view~~ world-wide view with the options present on this disambiguation page. In addition, the current primary topic, KSCA, on average has less page views than another "KSCA", Karnataka State Cricket Association.

Oppose - No other articles would naturally reside a KSCA in their own right, so none of them could claim primary topic if the station article didn't exist (they might fight for WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT though). Its not appropriate to downgrade the only topic with a legitimate claim to this page title. The page views aren't evidence as to how many people use the abbreviation vs the callsign. Would not object to adding the cricket page to the hatnote here, if that might help. -- Netoholic @ 18:49, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- It depends on how well-known the other subject is in India, a country which has a large English-speaking population, and thus many of its inhabitants probably read Wikipedia in this language. As far as either of us know at this point, "KSCA" could potentially refer primarily to other subjects on the disambiguation page in other parts of the English-speaking world. Unless there is some evidence that the first other topic I referenced does not appear as a top result for search engines for Internet users in India, my nomination statement regarding the ~~world-wide view~~ world-wide view of "KSCA" has yet to be invalidated.

  - This has absolutely nothing to do with some anti-India systemic bias perceived by you. It is only about the fact that a single article qualifies to sit at KSCA. The cricket article just uses it as an abbreviation, and can be reached quickly via the hatnote on this page. I'll also add, the page view stats you gave show barely a difference - not evidence of a strong claim here. -- Netoholic @ 19:47, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    - "...with some anti-India systemic bias perceived by you." I never made such a claim, but feel free to assume what you will. Steel1943 (talk) 19:49, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      - Sorry, I thought you knew what page WP:WORLDWIDE links to. -- Netoholic @ 21:26, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
        @Netoholic: Arg, that's it! That's like the 10th time I've wanted to link to some page regarding a world-wide view guideline or essay, and get that systemic bias page. I'd send that redirect to WP:RFD right now if there was a better target. Steel1943 (talk) 21:36, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
        
        Note: If the essay you want to link doesn't exist, create it. bd2412 T 18:01, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. Doesn't seem there's a clear primary topic. Paintspot Infez (talk) 00:00, 18 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support. No clear primary topic. The fact the radio station is the only article with that exact title is irrelevant. That's like saying, for instance, that if a radio station was called USAF then that should be at that title, instead of it being a redirect to United States Air Force. You could extend this to umpteen articles about American radio stations with four-letter abbreviation titles. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:40, 21 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
