[edit]I've just removed a Hull Daily mail article following this article in the Guardian. JRPG (talk) 22:54, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
- That's probably reasonable. I found http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/mobile/news/election-politics/politics-and-election-news/mp-will-not-face-spending-probe-1-6604046. Its not entirely clear what the commissioners did say; that article says The Commissioner’s office have said they will not be holding an inquiry into Coun Whitehead’s complaint, nor Mr Turner’s self-referral, made the same day.

- Oppose no indication of passing main criteria. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:19, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose per In ictu oculi. Subject lacks international prominence. All disambiguation pages contain individuals who are more notable than other individuals on those pages. If such a standard were to be applied, every {hndis} page would feature a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. The large majority of {hndis} pages, however, feature no primary topic.

– WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of "Karl Turner" per pageviews since 2018, and it's not even close. The other two get negligible views. Jeffrey34555 (talk) 00:22, 8 May 2026 (UTC)
- Support Karl Turner (British politician) → Karl Turner. This entry has 30 inline cites, while the entries for Karl Turner (American politician) and Karl Turner (cricketer) are indeed stubs. Oppose Karl Turner → Karl Turner (disambiguation) per WP:DABCOMBINE. A hatnote atop Karl Turner should point to the more extensive Carl Turner dab page where all three men named Karl Turner can be listed analogous to the Carl Jones or Carl Johnson dab pages or, for that matter, Ann Smith redirecting to the Anne Smith dab page, Phillip Smith redirecting to the Philip Smith dab page, Fredric Smith, Frederic Smith or Fredrick Smith redirecting to the Frederick Smith dab page, etc. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 01:23, 12 May 2026 (UTC)
- Support per nom. Clear primary topic. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:34, 13 May 2026 (UTC)
