Talk:Sharpness

Requested move 24 October 2024

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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. In this discussion, I find consensus to move Sharpness (disambiguation) to Sharpness, and to move the port Sharpness to Sharpness, Gloucestershire. Whether to move Sharpness (cutting) to the base name is a worthwhile discussion. (non-admin closure) 𝚈𝚘𝚟𝚝 (𝚝𝚊𝚕𝚔𝚟𝚝) 15:30, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

– The English port isn't what I think of when I think of "sharpness". If anything, it's the concept of things being sharp (e.g. a sharp knife, or a sharp sheet of paper), so there might be a materials science article in there. In terms of pageviews, the current top two are Sharpening and Sharpness (the port), which is weaker, but I still think a requested move might be a good idea.

• Comment: That's a pretty sharp observation, although perhaps a little cheesy. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 04:58, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

• Weak support no clear primary topic. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:14, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
• Support per the above. ╠╣uw [talk] 14:21, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
• Support, and create an article on Sharpness (cutting implements), a subject for which there are copious sources. BD2412 T 02:40, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
  • Note: I have created Sharpness (cutting), to cover material sharpness of both blades and similarly manufactured cutting implements, and naturally occurring instances of sharpness such as obsidian fragments, cactus spines, and shark teeth. BD2412 T 03:08, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

    ... When I saw this move request, I immediately thought:

    1) There's no article on sharpness right now, is there?

    2) that's funny, there probably should be

    3) I'll bet you BD2412 is gonna make one

    You are the MAN. Red Slash 19:50, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

• Support only the second move; move Sharpness (cutting) to base topic Red Slash 19:49, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
