James Pearce → James Pearce (politician) – not WP:PRIMARYTOPIC per page views [1] Joeykai (talk) 21:19, 1 May 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 18:53, 21 May 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. TarnishedPath^talk 13:08, 31 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose A look at recent news articles seems to indicate the football player is primarily referred to as James Pearce Jr. The next closest James Pearce (James Pearce (journalist)) only gets a third of the pageviews of the politician. Curbon7 (talk) 22:27, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nomination the contention that James Pearce is not primary over the combined prominence of the nine other men listed upon the Jim Pearce disambiguation page, but oppose moving to incomplete disambiguation James Pearce (politician) and propose a move to James Pearce (American politician), due to the presence of James Pearce (South Australian politician) as well as Jim Pearce (politician) whose main title header may be considered for a move to Jim Pearce (Queensland politician). As a helpful additional aspect, the nomination could have been paired with the move of dab page main header Jim Pearce → James Pearce, since six of the ten men listed on it are named "James" and only three are named "Jim", with one "Jimmy". —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 20:05, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Support James Pearce (American politician). All the other people on the list are called James Pearce, even if they're known as Jim. Oppose Jim Pearce (politician) → Jim Pearce (Queensland politician). Only politician known as Jim Pearce. Support Jim Pearce → James Pearce. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:43, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
