Padman → Pad Man – Pad Man is the correct name according to the external links. Peter James (talk) 19:03, 8 December 2017 (UTC) --Relisting. Kostas20142 (talk) 17:09, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Pad Man, a redirect, currently targets List of Prison Break minor characters#Jonathan Krantz. Steel1943 (talk) 04:00, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Peter James and Steel1943: I suggest you that Pad Man (2018 film) is perfect name for this page if Pad Man is already redirected to another page. Cheers -- HindWiki^Connect 10:59, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. The original title for the film is "Pad Man" & not "Padman". The latter is actually a commonly used surname in India. Shady59 (talk) 13:59, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think that this is the primary topic for "Pad Man", not a list of minor characters in a television series. There can be a hatnote to that list. Padman can be a disambiguation page for this and the two articles about people with the surname (both Australian). Is there an alternative spelling for the Indian name? Peter James (talk) 19:55, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Peter James: No, there are no alternative names of these types in India. -- HindWiki^Connect 15:35, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In that case it's unlikely to be notable (I don't know the origin of the surname in Australia, where Rachael Padman and Doug Padman are from). Peter James (talk) 16:05, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support - I also think Padman should then become a disambiguation page. Redirect should be deleted as unnecessary._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 10:54, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
