Zhang Hao (footballer, born 1994) → Zhang Hao (footballer) – Unnecessary dab, no other footballer called Zhang Hao has a page on English wikipedia. --Relisted. George Ho (talk) 06:19, 25 September 2014 (UTC) Timmyshin (talk) 02:11, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Question - No other footballer called these exact two characters 张浩 exists. But are there other Zhang Hao footballers with a different "hao" character who exist? In ictu oculi (talk) 07:26, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No other footballer called Zhang Hao has a page on English wikipedia. Timmyshin (talk) 09:11, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but I am so tempted to say "So what?" - that was the rationale used in 6 other RMs of which 5 turn out to have more notable subjects. Where's the research behind this proposal? He's a redlink on zh.wp dab, but isn't there a 张浩 (足球运动员) （1990年6月2日-），中国足球运动员。? What about other Hao? In ictu oculi (talk) 03:16, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No other footballer called Zhang Hao has a page on English wikipedia. That's the research behind the proposal. To oppose, you ought to find a footballer named Zhang Hao who can pass WP:NFOOTBALL and the 1990 one cannot. Timmyshin (talk) 10:23, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry but that's not sufficient as research before an RM. I've not yet opposed - unlike the five or six other RMs where there were other people who you'd missed. At this point I'm simply asking a question, and your answer doesn't encourage support of your move proposal. BTW I have redirected the other footballer Zhang Hao (footballer, born 1990) to his club, since he doesn't appear to have played above the second tier. In ictu oculi (talk) 06:52, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support I think Timmyshin is right on this one. There's a good chance there are no other notable footballers of this name, and I wouldn't be too worried about the small possibility of there being other players with such marginal notability that one can't find information about them in English. —innotata 20:31, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support - If no articles about other footballers of the same name exist, scrap out "born 1994" by default. If anything, I won't go against re-disambiguating the article without prejudice if an article about another footballer of the same name is created. --George Ho (talk) 21:47, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
