Tommy Davis → Tommy Davis (baseball) – no clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC [1] Joeykai (talk) 02:59, 30 January 2021 (UTC)—Relisted. 2pou (talk) 09:52, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- Support, and redirect Tommy Davis to Thomas Davis.--Ortizesp (talk) 06:39, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
- Support per nomination and Ortizesp. Tommy Davis should indeed redirect to the extensive Thomas Davis disambiguation page. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 06:48, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
- Support the Scientology member gets more (8,609) than the baseball player (1,273), redirect back to the DAB per Ortizesp and WP:DABCOMBINE. Crouch, Swale (talk) 10:36, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: After initially closing the discussion and retargetting to the dab, it seems that Tommy Davis (baseball) is still ambiguous given Tommy Davis (catcher). Courtesy pings @Joeykai, Ortizesp, Roman Spinner, and Crouch, Swale:

- Tommy Davis (baseball, born 1939)? since the other is American and this one is in Category:African-American baseball players. Crouch, Swale (talk) 13:39, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- Tommy Davis (outfielder) per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (baseball players) Joeykai (talk) 15:13, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- Support this.--Ortizesp (talk) 20:33, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- Comment. Since there has been, as yet, no proposal to move Tommy Davis (catcher), the most intuitive parenthetical qualifier for baseball's other Tommy Davis would seem to be the analogous Tommy Davis (playing position) — either Tommy Davis (outfielder), Tommy Davis (leftfielder), Tommy Davis (baseman), Tommy Davis (third baseman) or as decided by mets=y. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 21:24, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- It should be Tommy Davis (outfielder) per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (baseball players) Spanneraol (talk) 23:27, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
