– GeoNet (New Zealand) appears to be the primary topic because 1: the other GeoNet does not exist anymore and 2: the New Zealand one is recognisable to most of the New Zealand population, whereas I doubt that many people would recognise the other GeoNet. ―Panamitsu (talk) 03:35, 26 October 2024 (UTC)— Relisting early so banner stays up for at least seven days per WP:RMCI.

- Weak support I'd be inclined to support this, partially based on the fact that earthquakes in New Zealand show up as spikes in view numbers for the German GeoNet article. I shall point out that the German GeoNet is still going, but only by name (it is an email hosting service these days). Schwede66 19:24, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- Procedural comment. This is a malformed request and should be procedurally closed if the format is not converted to a multi-move request. The proposed location of the article currently at GeoNet needs to be made explicit in the move request, and there is currently no notification that a move is under consideration at GeoNet or Talk:GeoNet.

- Per Dekimasu, on nom's behalf, converted to multi-move request and relisted so notification at GeoNet or Talk:GeoNet goes for seven days. I have no strong attachment to "GeoNet (email host)"—just used Schwede66's comment to propose a destination other than "?". Rotideypoc41352 (talk · contribs) 16:58, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks, Rotideypoc41352. I did see that this was malformed but did not bother doing anything about it because there was a notification on the German GeoNet's talk page. Nonetheless, it’s good that it’s now a proper multi-request. Schwede66 17:06, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

- Oppose
2nd1st, the email host has 71 views but the New Zealand one only has 46[[1]] so a DAB is probably better. Crouch, Swale (talk) 21:58, 27 October 2024 (UTC)- Just a question, if you're proposing a DAB then wouldn't that be supporting the second and opposing the first, rather than the other way round?

- Corrected. Crouch, Swale (talk) 23:16, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

- At this point in time the New Zealand GeoNet page does not appear on Google, so the view count is temporarily deflated. We're comparing apples to oranges here. ―Panamitsu (talk) 04:58, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- Support: At least to a disambiguation page. Per Schewede it seems that users are mostly trying to find the article on the New Zealand service. --Spekkios (talk) 20:03, 30 October 2024 (UTC)

- Source: https://thespinoff.co.nz/science/11-10-2024/whos-the-aucklander-who-claims-to-feel-every-earthquake-in-new-zealand -- it says "certain appendage"
―Panamitsu (talk) 03:43, 26 October 2024 (UTC).
- Length, date, qpq, close paraphrase check ok. But is there a possibility for a second reference for the hook fact? The notion that 'certain appendage' is to be understood as a dick requires a bit of reading between the lines, but the ref also talks about this as an one-off incident. --Soman (talk) 11:49, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hmm okay. I've had a look for another source but couldn't find one. Does this mean that I have to find another fact? I've at least changed the plurality of the hook to address that concern.
