– Everything on the disambiguation page is a

partial title match. There is nothing stopping the game from being the primary topic for "Gris". ZXCVBNM (TALK) 17:44, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply

Just for the record, Gamma-Ray Imaging Spectrometer averages 2 hits per day. - Station1 (talk) 01:41, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That would be G.R.I.S., not Gris.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 23:46, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose The disambiguation page was doing poor numbers prior to the game's release, but forgotten video games can do similar numbers. It's too early to tell if the game will retain its popularity. We can reevaluate this later. Reach Out to the Truth 04:07, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose for now, as "gris" is simply Spanish for "grey" and part of the etymology for this game.source The term used similarly to French "noir(e)", which also hosts a disambiguation page. We can check on this again later, and if the game turns out vastly more notable than all other Gris topics, PTOPIC would apply.

    @Netoholic: Recentism is when you suggest an article be a primary topic over all other topics simply because it's currently popular. I'm not doing that. I'm saying that regardless of how popular it is, it's the only 100% title match for the word "Gris".ZXCVBNM (TALK) 23:44, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • "100% title match" is not the standard employed in WP:Disambiguation. We base decisions upon whether there is more than one subject covered by Wikipedia, either as the main topic of an article, or as a subtopic covered by an article in addition to the article's main topic. So if there is, say, a topic that can be referred by a specific phrase, that phrase may be ambiguous when evaluated against other topics on Wikipedia. In this case, the RECENTISM issue is raised due to the claims about page view popularity being relevant, which can be dismissed when one considers how recent this game has appeared, and that it long-term is very unlikely to rise above all the other uses of the phrase "Gris". -- Netoholic @ 00:21, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

– Clear primary topic; the article gets more page views than every other page on the disambiguation page combined, and has sustained page view levels way above the other topics. The high amount of hits for the disambiguation page compared to everything else suggests that people are probably clicking through to this (or

partial title match anyway). Sceptre (talk) 23:02, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply

Is there any evidence that Juan Gris is commonly referred to as just "Gris"? Specifically, in contexts where his full name hasn't already been mentioned? If not, I think a primary redirect would be a very bad idea. Colin M (talk) 18:09, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Not saying that it should be, but that the disamb page serves both names well. At a minimum, if the redirect is moved, a hatnote should probably be placed on the page directing readers to the artist (as occurs at Pollock). Randy Kryn (talk) 19:08, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support for roughly the same reason as Station1/Lordtobi. To Station1's point, I will say that someone could write an anthroponymy article on Gris as a name (cf.
    MOS:DABNAME), but such articles are generally very, very weak candidates for primary topic. I would reconsider my recommendation if any evidence could be found that any of the people listed at Gris are commonly referred to by "Gris" alone (and not just as a shortening of the name in repeated mentions).
