Water-dropper (calligraphy) → Water dropper – The hyphen is unjustified as this is not an adjectival form. Also the disambiguator is unnecessary and our policy is that we don't disambiguate unless it is. Andy Dingley (talk) 21:01, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose I'm surprised that there's no page (redirect, disambiguation, or otherwise) at Water dropper yet. The sense of Eye dropper is at least as prominent. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 05:19, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
- So you support water dropper as a reasonable alternative, but haven't addressed either of the points here? Andy Dingley (talk) 13:47, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
- No, I'm saying that the calligraphy device is not the primary topic. Either the primary topic is Eye dropper, or there is no primary topic. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 04:49, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- But an eye dropper is an eye dropper and a water dropper is a water dropper! What overlap (meaning or lexical) do they have? What do you think the primary article for water dropper is? Andy Dingley (talk) 18:03, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- Do a Google Images search of water dropper. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 18:40, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
