– Dennis Wagner (chess player) has more citations and pageviews – not enough to usurp the base name but ample to prevent any other page from being a primary topic. This looks like a WP:DABTWO case. Certes (talk) 13:11, 12 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Support the American footballer has 1,490 views but the chess player has 3,899. Crouch, Swale (talk) 21:43, 12 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

All-time views show the trend turning in favor of the chess player, after the football coach's career ended in 2020. There's an argument to be made that the latter topic has more affinity to a substantial contingent of native speakers, and that we should be wary of WP:recentism, but the name seems fairly generic, and a Google Books search shows neither of these people on the first page of results, so disambiguation is fairly safe anyway. --Joy (talk) 12:56, 13 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
