Requested move 18 March 2018

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: moved to Preston Brown (general) with dab page moved to base name – consensus achieved. Have a Great Day and Happy Publishing! (closed by page mover) Paine Ellsworth ^put'r there 13:34, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

– I believe the dab page should be moved to Preston Brown, as I do not believe there is a primary topic for this name. The officer does not seem to be exceedingly more notable than the other two Preston Browns. Natg 19 (talk) 03:36, 18 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support – No primarytopic. Dicklyon (talk) 04:51, 18 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nomination and Dicklyon. The more appropriate qualifier, however, would be "(general)" per such other World War I Americans as Guy Carleton (general), Samuel McRoberts (U.S. general), Frank Parker (general) and numerous others listed at Category:United States Army generals. —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 05:06, 18 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support but (general) would be a better dab. In ictu oculi (talk)
Preston Brown (linebacker) is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. [1] - Station1 (talk) 20:11, 18 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support "(general)". There's no primary topic, and I kinda agree that General would be a better disambiguator. Paintspot Infez (talk) 17:30, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. If moved, the disambiguator should definitely be "general". -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:05, 21 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC Criterion #2. — AjaxSmack 15:58, 21 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
