Dum Dum Uttar → Dum Dum Uttar (Vidhan Sabha constituency) – as per WP:NC and WP:CONSISTENT Manasbose (talk) 08:06, 13 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Support as per WP:CONSISTENT. ~Amkgp ✉ 14:11, 13 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
Oppose Parenthetical disambiguation shouldn't be added when it isn't needed; ee WP:CONCISE. Also consistency doesn't require addition of '(Vidhan Sabha constituency)' to the article name since other articles in this category that don't need disambiguation, (correctly) leave that out, e.g., Asansol Dakshin, Asansol Uttar, Katulpur etc. Abecedare (talk) 18:54, 13 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Oppose This appears to be unnecessary disambiguation, unless there is some other topic with the name "Dum Dum Uttar". I am also not convinced by the consistency argument, as a quick glance at Category:Assembly constituencies of West Bengal suggests that West Bengal constituencies do not necessarily have "(Vidhan Sabha constituency)" appended to the name where it is not necessary (over 40 constituency articles are not disambiguated).
