MoniakMoniak (disambiguation)Mickey Moniak is the only exact match with the dab page's entries; the rest are more trivial mentions (e.g. Anhelina Moniak) or inexact matches (e.g. Moniaki). Mickey is also Moniak with his own Wikipedia article. Therefore, I ask for Moniak to be moved to Moniak (disambiguation) so that Moniak can again redirect to Mickey. Thanks.

Comment: Notwithstanding my rename to NotReallyMoniak (referring to Mickey), I have no COIs whatsoever with him. I would have made this RM independent of my username change, and vice versa. Thanks. NotReallyMoniak (talk) 16:30, 21 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Comment Is a dabpage even necessary? @64.229.88.43: 162 etc. (talk) 00:37, 22 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
    • There's a historical military leader and guitarist Ted, in addition to baseball. I would not say that the historical military leader is "trivial"; "Moniak" apparently is also an alternate spelling of "Moniack" in Scotland, in historical records, from which barons and lairds hail -- 64.229.88.43 (talk) 05:54, 23 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Delete. No articles titled Moniak. The search engine can handle this far better. Station1 (talk) 05:12, 22 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
    But {{R from surname}} is a legitimate redirect type. So at least that to Mickey over delete. Happy Editing--IAmChaos 22:32, 22 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Comment: It should have read "Mickey is also the only Moniak with…", I forgot the "the only" NotReallyMoniak (talk) 05:29, 22 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose Pointless, no need to redirect to one Moniak. Fairly uncommon Polish surname. Delete or leave as is this is a surname page. In ictu oculi (talk) 07:00, 22 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • The dab page shouldn't be deleted as it has several valid main entries that pass WP:DABMENTION (the only one that's dubious is the Ukrainian TV show contestant: that's one of the many with a passing mention in the lists in the target, so I wouldn't have included it on the dab page). It's not all people with the surname (the Golden Horse commander is the one exception, though that entry is a bit unclear), so it's fine as a dab page (rather than a surname index). – Uanfala (talk) 12:04, 22 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
