– Either Josh Wolf (activist) or Josh Wolf (journalist) for a current "primary topic". As I have read the main "Josh Wolf" so far, I found out that he was in jail and has become famous for that? Also, he ran for mayoral candidacy? That's... intriguing? Anyway, I'm seeing recentism on both topics, so I'm afraid this "activist" is just as significant as the comedian. --Relisted JHunterJ (talk) 12:31, 14 July 2012 (UTC) Relisted.

  • Comment there is the case for Josh Wolf (videographer), since he does stuff by videotaping it. 70.49.127.65 (talk) 03:45, 26 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
    • That's up to the closer and the consensus. Any disambiguation is fine for us, as long as this person is not primary enough to rule this name. --George Ho (talk) 03:58, 26 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
      • Perhaps the title should be "Imprisonment of Josh Wolf" rather than "Josh Wolf", since the topic of the article seems to primarily be the legal issues rather than the person. —BarrelProof (talk) 17:11, 3 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
        • ....That could work, but what about the comedian? That could confuse things and make others think that the comedian was in jail for something, am I right? --George Ho (talk) 17:19, 3 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose: activist appears more significant than comedian - but no need for dab page, handle it with a hatnote at Josh Wolf (could even include Josh Wolff from dab page in the hatnote if thought useful). Then delete dab page as unnecessary. But, if this move request passes, please remember to clear up the large number of incoming links which will point to the dab page.

  • Support - Both are pretty unremarkable and there will be plenty of other Josh Wolfs with Wikipedia articles in the future.Marcus Qwertyus 15:21, 29 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

– Same as before, that person must be either an "(activist)" or a "(politician)". Typically, the activist/candidate gets less views per day than the comedian; miraculously, the candidate got 1,000 views in one day and 5,000 views in another. Anyway, this person's biography is not that impressive, but as impressive as the comedian's. Neither did anything that significant to be memorable. George Ho (talk) 17:10, 14 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
