The result of the move request was: Moved, with the page on the character being moved to Severian (character). BegbertBiggs (talk) 13:16, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
– No primary topic. Srnec (talk) 01:49, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support Per nom, though the 2nd should go to Severian (character). However there is a possibility the character is not notable and Severians is actually the primary topic, meaning the disambiguation page will go right back to its original location. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 06:22, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- Google Books search for this term brings up some Wolfe but a lot of Roman/Byzantine references, so it looks like there's no primary topic by long-term significance or usage. As this is only one of the renderings of the tribe's name, the singular/plural distinction doesn't seem to factor much into this. No problem with shortening the marker.

- Support Severian (disambiguation) → Severian per nomination and comment by Joy, paired with Severian → Severian (character) per ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ and per standard Wikipedia use of parenthetical qualifier "(character)". There are 13 entries listed upon the Severian (disambiguation) page, with no indication that the renown of the Gene Wolfe character exceeds the combined notability of the remaining 12 entries. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 07:08, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

https://wikinav.toolforge.org/?language=en&title=Severian for January '24 shows a total of 571 incoming views, and we could identify 211 for the character, 23 for the plural, and 10+ for two other topics. The latter three is too close to the anonymization threshold of <10 to be able to say it is accurate. So the previous presumed primary topic is at ~37% here. Maybe this would change if we moved it on top of the list, though, but I'm kind of loathe to do that for a fictional character :) --Joy (talk) 16:14, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
In February, 524 views, 174 to the character (~33%), 25 for the plural and 10+ for four other topics. --Joy (talk) 21:38, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
