Tom Curran → ?
Tom Curran (disambiguation) → Tom Curran

– No evidence that the academic is the primary topic. Tom Curran (cricketer) has far more page views, so it's better if Tom Curran became a DAB page. As for the disambiguator, would Tom Curran (academic) work? Or Tom Curran (medical researcher)? Joseph2302 (talk) 12:40, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support with the first move target being Tom Curran (medical researcher). Clear absence of a topic that is primary by both interest and historical importance. bd2412 T 15:34, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support particularly given that some of the Thomas Curran dab list can also be Tom. In ictu oculi (talk) 00:37, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In which case, maybe we should merge the Thomas and Tom Curran DAB pages. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:41, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support Changing it to a dab page. I was looking at this yesterday and thinking the same thing. Beat me to it! Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 08:53, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support move to Tom Curran (medical researcher), no WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and merger of the Tom Curran and Thomas Curran disambiguation pages. —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 17:32, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
