I think these are Unneeded. These small, two-item disambiguation pages are better solved with Hat-notes, and are becoming rampant and turning Wikipedia into the book of lists. GenQuest ^"scribble" 20:43, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as there is no primary topic, therefore, it doesn't make sense to have one or the other at the basename. Elli (talk | contribs) 20:44, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Aren't they already disambiguated in their respective article titles? There are only two people here. Entering a search term in Wikipedia is never going to overflow the results field, or produce a lengthy links page. GenQuest ^"scribble" 22:34, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

So what would you propose we have at the basename? Elli (talk | contribs) 10:40, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There doesn't have to be a basename. It is pretty easy to distinguish between two already disambiguated article titles without all the extra steps and creation of a page that is easily replaced with hat-notes. There is little benefit derived from going through all that trouble, plus having readers decide between three pages instead of just two as they type the search term(s). BTW, in the United States, the basketball player gets far more hits than the other guy, so that would be a good indicator of a basename if you feel you have to have one.

Keep this page meets the guidelines. Boleyn (talk) 08:31, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It would not be out of order to move Sergi García (basketball) to Sergi García and disambiguate to the other with a hatnote. The priority between the two subjects could change over time though, so perhaps best to just keep this. Geschichte (talk) 14:33, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep. These "small, two-item disambiguation pages" effectively disambiguate where there is no clear primary topic between two names. BD2412 T 06:47, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - This seems acceptable according to my reading of WP:DISAMBIG. Per WP:TWODABS, "If there are multiple topics (even just two) to which a given title might refer, but per the criteria at Is there a primary topic? there is no primary topic, then the base name should lead the reader to the disambiguation page for the term." Not clear that there's a primary here, so I think this page is fine. Suriname0 (talk) 19:42, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
