Requested move[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was moved.--RegentsPark (talk) 13:32, 7 May 2010 (UTC) Pashto → Pashto (disambiguation) — The text of this page strongly suggests that Pashto language is the primary topic. If so, the page should be moved, and the existing title should be redirected to the article about the language. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 10:15, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support: I originally created this page under the name "Pashto (disambiguation)", but reasoned that since there was no article with the title of "Pashto" (so to speak; it was a redir to "Pashto language"), that I should transfer the info I had placed at Pashto (disambiguation) only a few hours earlier, to Pashto (with the primary link at the top pointing to where it was originally redirected to). I then placed {{db-author}}, along my rational within
. Then it got deleted. But after looking here, your argument is persuasive. You have my blessing. Hamamelis (talk) 15:13, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the move request was: page moved. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 20:48, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Pashto → Pashto (disambiguation) – Per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. For "Pashto", the PRIMARYTOPIC is Pashto language, so "Pashto" should be changed to a redirect to "Pashto language". – Khestwol (talk) 10:31, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Khestwol: This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:18, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support and Request Speedy Close. This was a technical request Anthony Appleyard. The other "Pashto" articles are about minor, unimportant villages and a town, and are not likely to be viewed frequently. In the last 90 days, "Pashto language" has been viewed 65,505 times, but "Pashto (Battagram)" has been viewed only 375 times, "Poshtu, Bushehr" has been viewed only 169 times, and "Poshtu, Hormozgan" has been viewed only 141 times. So Pashto language, which is about a major Indo-European language, qualifies easily as the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. After this move is made, "Pashto" should be edited and changed to a redirect to "Pashto language", while a hatenote that "Pashto redirects here. For other uses, see Pashto (disambiguation)" should be added to "Pashto language". Khestwol (talk) 15:24, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
