Requested move 5 December 2017

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: Move to Thomas Land (cricketer) instead. There is clearly no primary topic as of now. (non-admin closure) ToThAc (talk) 18:27, 13 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

– Clear absence of a primary topic. The cricket patron is obscure, and I have just created an article on the like-named Justice of the Louisiana Supreme Court. Page views actually favor the theme parks. bd2412 T 17:14, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unless there is a different Thomas Land who is also a patron I don’t believe we need to specificy that he is a cricket patron.--67.68.21.146 (talk) 23:11, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"Patron" is most often applied to the arts. We could use just "cricket". bd2412 T 23:32, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support (cricket) would do, (cricket patron) would do. In ictu oculi (talk) 13:15, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I think I would prefer simply "(cricketer)" for consistency and the article mentions he was a player. BlackJack, thoughts? Jenks24 (talk) 11:10, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support moving to "(cricketer)" for consistency with the titles of other cricketers' pages who share names with other people. It's clear that this obscure cricket patron isn't a primary topic for "Thomas Land." The disambiguation page should take the namespace of "Thomas Land".

- I am fine with "(cricketer)". bd2412 T 17:36, 13 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support move to Thomas Land (cricketer) per WP:CONSISTENCY with other articles. CookieMonster755 𝚨-𝛀 04:07, 13 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
