– It is doubtful that the 13-sentence entry for the mathematician delineates renown of such extent that it cannot be matched by the combined notability of the other two same-named men. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 07:06, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support the first move, but for the second suggest instead moving Michael Lacey (editor) to the current title of this page. Even with a different page at the base name, the editor still seems to get over 80 percent of page views for subjects at this name.--Yaksar (let's chat) 16:53, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support yes at least move the DAB to the base name, indeed the editor gets 621 views compared to only 91 for this one,[[1]] as noted the editor could be primary but a DAB probably makes nose sense since PT swaps create problems with incoming external links.

Support both. Page views since 2015 [2] don't give a clear picture of primary topic. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 07:41, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
