  • Comment a Histmerge WP:SPLICE should be done on Cardross (disambiguation) and the edit history of Cardross (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) since a previous disambiguation page existed in 2007 at that location -- 70.51.201.106 (talk) 04:44, 24 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose speedy move I see no evidence of any great notability of the British location that would make it primary over the Australian topics, since there is an event at Australia that merited its own article, while no such events have occurred in Britain. Instead move the disambiguation page to the primary location. -- 70.51.201.106 (talk) 04:47, 24 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

  • Comment a merge request for the dab page edit history has been filed at WP:SPLICE -- 70.51.201.106 (talk) 06:00, 24 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Alternate proposal move Cardross (disambiguation) to Cardross, as there doesn't seem to be much notability difference between Australia's and Britain's, and there are more than two topics called "Cardross", so it is much better served having a disambiguation page as the primary landing point. -- 70.51.201.106 (talk) 05:59, 24 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Support primary topic by page views; others less clearly primary topics than this are usually moved. Peter James (talk) 20:19, 24 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Support per nom and Peter JamesВ²C 07:00, 31 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Support. Current redirect has been in place for almost 12 years, so this move merely supports a long-standing status quo. Page view stats weigh heavily in favour of the Scottish village, which of the three articles gets 86% of the page views. PC78 (talk) 20:51, 1 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
