B12 → B12 (disambiguation) – Propose making this page a redirect to Vitamin B12 as that appears to be the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Looks like most incoming links are for the vitamin. I have no strong feelings on this; just want to see whether others agree. 47.146.63.87 (talk) 00:37, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

• Oppose - I don't see this as a convincing need for a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. If the concern is bad incoming links, then this would just let it continue and get worse. We have bots to notify people if they link to DAB pages, so the current arrangement self-corrects more. -- Netoholic @ 02:21, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

  Yeah, I was using non-mainspace links as a rough way to judge what people want. Is there a good way to see mainspace links that were to this page and then got changed? My thought was more for people typing "B12" into the search box, which doesn't return "Vitamin B12" as a suggestion since it goes on start-of-title. --47.146.63.87 (talk) 02:03, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

  Comment I just created a redirect ("B12 (vitamin)") so it'll show up in the Search box. Paintspot Infez (talk) 19:57, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

• There aren't any incoming links from mainspace to this page. However, weak support as it is a clear primary topic over all the others and what most readers are likely to be looking for. Unlikely to get many incorrect incoming links. – Thjarkur (talk) 09:03, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
• Support per Thjarkur. It's clear that most users are looking for Vitamin B12, so redirecting B12 to Vitamin B12 would make things better, not worse. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 09:55, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
• Support per nom - obviously this is the primary topic per long-term significance. What comes close? A British electronic music duo? Red Slash 23:55, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
