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: create disambiguation page. (non-admin closure) TonyBallioni (talk) 01:16, 4 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Lauren Townsend (footballer) → Lauren Townsend – Lauren Townsend is currently a redirect to the Columbine HS massacre, because it was the name of one of the victims; however, that Lauren Townsend doesn't actually have an article and doesn't appear notable. Since this is the only article by this name on Wikipedia, a hatnote will suffice. Nohomersryan (talk) 23:58, 23 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. --В²C ☎ 00:10, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Ghits for the Columbine victim overwhelm, the victim is repeatedly mentioned at the target. In terms of primary topic, the footballer overwhelming fails. Overwhelmingly. Also note that Lauren Townsend, Columbine victim, used to be an article and has a non-trivial history. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:36, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support disambiguating both, that would be a good result. Although the footballer is less well known, she is known, and is current, and following her name to find yourself deep in an unrelated article is also astonishing. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 07:14, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nomination, but would also support, as an alternative, the creation of Lauren Townsend disambiguation page listing Lauren Townsend (Columbine massacre victim) and Lauren Townsend (footballer). —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 07:03, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per G Book hits, but would also support, as an alternative, the creation of Lauren Townsend disambiguation page listing Lauren Townsend (Columbine massacre victim) (preserving substantial blanked article history) and Lauren Townsend (footballer) In ictu oculi (talk) 08:45, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom or disambiguation page. Hmlarson (talk) 17:12, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as other target seems the more likely searchterm. Agathoclea (talk) 09:38, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
