Ross Edwards → Ross Edwards (cricketer) – I've just fixed incorrect incoming links, meant for Ross Edwards (composer), which has more incoming links, more page hits, and is a much larger article. I suspect that most of the incoming links here are from the templates included at the bottom of the article.. There's also another Ross Edwards (author), which I just created as a redirect as it's a pen name for Peter Robb. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 01:13, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

p.s. There would need to be a DAB created if this move goes ahead. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 01:14, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Convert to disambiguation There doesn't appear to be a primary topic here, so support the move and turn into disambiguation page. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 11:07, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Concur, create new cricketer page and convert this one to DAB, pageviews for the composer and the cricketer are neck and neck so WP:NOPRIMARY clearly applies.Carguychris (talk) 18:37, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support and create dab page as per previous comments. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:10, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nomination, Rugbyfan22, Carguychris and Joseph2302. Likewise support creation of a Ross Edwards disambiguation page that would list Ross Edwards (cricketer), Ross Edwards (composer) as well as Ross Edwards (author). —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 09:42, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nomination as per previous comments. In the dab I would add also John-Ross Edwards and Juana Ross Edwards MrKeefeJohn (talk) 14:13, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support the cricketer has 274 views but the composer has 303 and Peter Robb (author) has 252[[1]]. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:28, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom and create DAB at base name.--Ortizesp (talk) 15:59, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
