– The WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for “location” and “place” is the geographical concept of location, so Location should be the name of that article, and Place should be a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT to it. None of the other articles currently listed at Location or Place are candidates to be the primary topic.

“Site” is a little trickier, since the word is also widely known as a version of “website”. However, because that use of it is actually derived from the geographical meaning, I propose that Site should also be a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT to Location. (We already have Site (internet) as a redirect to Website.)

I think it’s clear that “location” is an encyclopedic subject that deserves an article, even though the one at Location (geography) is woefully inadequate at the present. The dabs need cleanup as well, but that’s all beside the point of this proposed set of moves. — Gorthian (talk) 07:42, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
