Working location
editIf Mistry is based in India and we have sources for that then it would be ok to describe him as such, ie: something like "a businessman of Irish nationality who is based in India". Tata, of course, are a multi-national corporation. - Sitush (talk) 10:22, 12 June 2015 (UTC)
Requested move 22 November 2016
edit- 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. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: Moved as proposed. The supporters have teh consensus, and make a convincing case that he is both known generally without the middle name, and is the WP:PTOPIC for this term. The dab page can go, per WP:TWODABS. — Amakuru (talk) 11:56, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
Cyrus Pallonji Mistry → Cyrus Mistry – Generally used name is Cyrus Mistry. WP:PRIMARYTOPIC in terms of usage. Redtigerxyz Talk 18:11, 22 November 2016 (UTC) --Relisting. JudgeRM (talk to me) 20:03, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
- Comment. Cyrus Mistry is currently a dab page including Cyrus Mistry (writer). Do you have evidence that this subject is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC?--Cúchullain t/c 19:00, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
- Move as proposed. Per Necrothesp below, the businessman does appear to be mostly known as Cyrus Mistry, and he receives 98.9% of the page views.[1] He's the clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC.--Cúchullain t/c 18:47, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
- That's most likely down to WP:RECENTISM, however. He's been in the news a lot recently, even here in Britain. -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:39, 1 December 2016 (UTC)

- [2] Google News search about Cyrus Mistry from 30 Sept 2015 - 2016; before the big Tata-Mistry spat shows that most Google News articles refer to him. --Redtigerxyz Talk 08:09, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
- Necrothesp, Redtigerxyz: The businessman and writer are roughly contemporary, so WP:RECENTISM doesn't look like much of a factor; the businessman appears to be more common in Google news and book sources well before the current batch of press.--Cúchullain t/c 14:03, 5 December 2016 (UTC)

- Oppose: @Redtigerxyz while it is clear from the page logs that Cyrus Pallonji Mistry is a page much more viewed than Cyrus Mistry (writer) as you have provided no WP:EVIDENCE that Cyrus Pallonji Mistry is commonly known as just Cyrus Mistry there is nothing to suggest that the status quo is not the correct situation. Ebonelm (talk) 20:50, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
- [3] Google News serach of "Cyrus Mistry" shows most news organizations refer to him as "Cyrus Mistry":
- Move to Cyrus Mistry (businessman). A search would suggest that he appears to be far more commonly referred to as Cyrus Mistry than by his full name. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:22, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
