Will Goodwin (footballer) → Will Goodwin – Sole such Wikipedia entry, thus obviating need for parenthetical qualifier "(footballer)". Analogous to Billy Goodwin and many other entries of this nature. {Similar names} templates atop such pages, pointing to pertinent disambiguation pages, in this case, the William Goodwin dab page, resolve any uncertainties.

• Oppose - the William Goodwin dab page shows large number of people known by this name, and therefore Will Goodwin/Bill Goodwin/Billy Goodwin are ambiguous, and it is they who should gain dabs, rather than this page losing it. GiantSnowman 21:00, 15 April 2026 (UTC)
• Support. Nobody else on the list appears to be known as Will. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:46, 20 April 2026 (UTC)
