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. Moved as proposed to "(writer)" as a WP:BARTENDER move. Editors may wish to start a new RM regarding "(novelist)" in the future if they wish. (closed by non-admin page mover) Jeffrey34555 (talk) 02:00, 25 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

– The boxer has pretty consistently gotten more pageviews since 2020, and there's no clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC after a cursory web search. DAB should be moved to base name, page view stats here.Ortizesp (talk) 00:58, 11 May 2026 (UTC) — Relisting. 1isall (talk | contribs) 01:27, 18 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Support per nomination. There are five men listed upon the David Morrell (disambiguation) page, with uncertainty that the renown of David Morrell/David Morrell (writer)/David Morrell (novelist) has remained at such a high level that it overwhelms the combined notability of the remaining four men. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 02:05, 11 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
Support the writer has 5,759 views but the boxer has 46,259, the actor has 137, the doctor has 21 and the cricketer has 7[]. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:57, 12 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
Support per nom and those above. Clear absence of a primary topic. BD2412 T 22:22, 12 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
Support David Morrell (novelist). What he's best known for. We try to be as specific as possible. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:33, 13 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Relisting comment: Consensus to move, but can we get any further thoughts on (novelist)? 1isall (talk | contribs) 01:27, 18 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Likewise support David Morrell → David Morrell (novelist) per Necrothesp. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 02:28, 18 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
