Talk:Tours

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. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Not moved. As pointed out in the discussion, the comparison with Wells is not apples–apples. While there are many places named "Wells" and it's also a common surname, there are only three uses of "Tours" on the Tour disambiguation – Professional golf tours, which is a partial-title match, the primary topic, and a football club named after the primary topic. The French places named "Tours-something" are listed on the La Tour disambiguation. – wbm1058 (talk) 19:55, 13 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Support - I think the dab should be included in Tour with the lead changed to "Tour or Tours may refer to:". --Gonnym (talk) 13:30, 3 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  Well isn't a specific article but Wells is a DAB. Maybe at some point a broad concept article will be written but I still think they are valid uses of Tour(s). Crouch, Swale (talk) 12:21, 4 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  But that's a false equivalence – I see some 20 cities called "Wells" and hundreds of people listed at

• Oppose. This is clearly the primary encyclopedic topic of the word "Tours".... Dohn joe (talk) 18:06, 4 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. The city is the primary topic for the word "Tours". We don't even have another article by this name, so the current hatnote works just fine. Bradv 05:21, 6 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose. Since there is no article at tour, it's just a disambiguation page. What's more, who would link "tours" and expect it to go anywhere else? Who would search for "tours" and expect something else? It doesn't really seem astonishing. A "tour of duty" is a tour of duty and nobody would expect/search for it any other way. 216.8.184.122 (talk) 13:10, 6 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Indeed. And it seems easy enough to spot the overlinks and revert them under the current primary-topic configuration. – wbm1058 (talk) 19:35, 13 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
