– Move both to create primary redirects to Reconnaissance, the primary topic. 162 etc. (talk) 06:12, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is this a bit too much of a WP:DICT situation, though? Also, the hatnote on top of Reconnaissance is already a bit long. --Joy (talk) 07:12, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reconnaissance is definitely a full-fledged article, not a dictionary entry. I've cleaned up the hatnote. 162 etc. (talk) 00:56, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. Very, very clear primary redirects. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:22, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support Obvious primary topics. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 02:39, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support "Recon → Recon (disambiguation)" per nom. Obvious primary grab there. Neutral on the Recce move since I've never heard of that term before, so I cannot support or oppose. Steel1943 (talk) 05:55, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Recce is the Commonwealth English version of Recon. It's used in exactly the same way. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:11, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support. In. the words of the article Reconnaissance: "in military jargon, reconnaissance is abbreviated to recce (British, Canadian, Australian English) and to recon (American English)." I note RECCE already redirects there. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 10:37, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
