The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: (non-admin closure) MOVED to Shilpi Sharma (DJ). User:力 (power~enwiki, π, ν) 04:07, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Consensus that her name is properly spelled Shilpi Sharma. No consensus on disambiguation, apart from that the proposed "DJ Shilpi Sharma" is incorrect. Shilpi Sharma (DJ) presents the fewest complications in disambiguation, so I am moving the article there. While there are several comments contingent on this person being the primary topic for Shilpi Sharma, I see no votes suggesting that she is the primary topic.

No prejudice against speedy re-nomination for a different disambiguation. User:力 (power~enwiki, π, ν) 04:07, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Shillpi Sharma → DJ Shilpi Sharma – Her real name is Shilpi not Shillpi. As there is already an article present with the name Shilpi Sharma, her name is being changed. Instead add DJ infront of her name Shilpi as everyone knows her by that, so the correct name won't be disrupted by this way. ManaliJain (talk) 04:06, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@ManaliJain, BarrelProof, and Ahecht: queried move request Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:23, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That seems unlikely to be the form that would be chosen after adequate discussion. It sounds like the suggestion is to use "DJ" as a prefixing disambiguator, and that is not how disambiguation is ordinarily done on Wikipedia. Also, the justification for the spelling change is not based on WP:COMMONNAME. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 09:45, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Alright then, if that's the case. My request for the same was to correct the person's name which has a spelling fault. If "DJ" can't be used as a prefix, any other suffix would also be fine. That's all, thanks. ManaliJain (talk) 10:32, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@BarrelProof Most of the sources in the article, as well as IMDB, spell her name as "Shilpi Sharma" --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 15:57, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Most but not all, and "DJ" seems to primarily be used in them as a role description rather than as part of her name (like DJ Khaled or DJ Paul). Shilpi Sharma (DJ) might be better. Moreover, this article gets about three times the number of pageviews as the article about the other actress with an article currently at Shilpi Sharma, so I have submitted an RM request to rename that one to Shilpi Sharma (born 1994). Perhaps this one should be renamed to just Shilpi Sharma per WP:TWODABS. That article title is currently occupied by non-redirecting content, so WP:RM discussion is needed. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 16:13, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Move to Shilpi Sharma (as primary if the other article is moved) or Shilpi Sharma (born 1983) or Shilpi Sharma (DJ). Please see the related RM at Talk:Shilpi Sharma#Requested move 13 October 2021. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 08:54, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support Shilpi Sharma (DJ). No clear primary topic, but she does appear to be better known as a DJ. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:31, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support correcting the spelling of her name. However we need to properly disambiguate her name since there is another Shilpi Sharma. Its not clear to me if she is more known for her role as an actress or DJs. There is some more weight in this article to the DJ role, but I'm concerned about WP:RECENTISM. Admittedly going with Shilpi Sharma (DJ) and Shilpi Sharma (Actress) respectively would make things easier and more clear. TiggerJay (talk) 15:32, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support as there's already an article named Shilpi Sharma and here being the same name, spelling should be corrected. If the other article is moved to some other name as well then I'll go with Shilpi Sharma, otherwise Shilpi Sharma (DJ). ManaliJain (talk) 17:19, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
