Dave Gilbert (cricketer) → Dave Gilbert (cricketer, born 1960) – WP:PDAB; see David Gilbert (cricketer, born 1827). 162 etc. (talk) 06:27, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
- Comment. Perhaps Dave Gilbert (Australian cricketer) and David Gilbert (English cricketer) instead? This seems more natural to me. – Michael Aurel (talk) 08:30, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
- Support per nom, redirect (cricketer) to DAB.--Ortizesp (talk) 19:31, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
- Support per nomination and Ortizesp. Since Dave Gilbert redirects to the David Gilbert dab page, the two name variations are basically the same. The incomplete disambiguation Dave Gilbert (cricketer) should indeed redirect to the David Gilbert#Sports dab page. As an alternative option, would not oppose the above proposal of moving the two headers to Dave Gilbert (Australian cricketer) and David Gilbert (English cricketer). —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 22:40, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
- Move Dave Gilbert (cricketer) → Dave Gilbert (Australian cricketer) and David Gilbert (cricketer, born 1827) → David Gilbert (English cricketer). Theparties (talk) 13:21, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
- Move to page titles with "Australian" and "English", same as Theparties above, per my initial comment. I think, as these are cricketers, their nationality is probably fairly memorable, and is more likely to be remembered than their birth years. – Michael Aurel (talk) 20:29, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
