Carl Gilbert → Carl Gilbert (footballer) – Not really a primary topic (matter a fact, Carl J. Gilbert appears to be far more notable), needless to say, Carl Gilbert (disambiguation) should become the new primary. Sirlink2222 (talk) 19:05, 1 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

Support the footballer has 47 views but J has 220 and A has 10[]. Crouch, Swale (talk) 20:11, 1 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
@Crouch, Swaleyou actually could make the argument that Carl Gilbert can become a redirect to Carl J Gilbert due to how he just dwarfs him, I wouldn’t be against that happening either (with the disambiguation page being a hatnote on j) Sirlink2222 (talk) 20:28, 1 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
Yes Sirlink2222 I'm supporting the DAB page at the base name but yes it would be possible to redirect to Carl J. Gilbert or move Carl J. Gilbert to Carl Gilbert. Crouch, Swale (talk) 21:29, 1 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
