Austin Healey move to Austin Healey (rugby player)

WP:RM page - * Talk:Austin Healey — Austin Healey → Austin Healey (rugby) – The other meaning of Austin Healey (the car brand) is much more common - at least the top 100 hits in google are all for the car Spute 10:21, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Austin-Healey — Austin-Healey → Austin Healey – The car brand (currently Austin-Healey article) should not be hyphenated, it is not hyphenated in its own logo- or at Enthusiast web sites, such as the top hit on Google. Hyphenation is sometimes used though, so Austin-Healey should redirect to Austin Healey Spute 10:21, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

oppose. Special:whatlinkshere/Austin Healey are all rugby related. There is a dablink at the top; the page on the cars is at Austin-Healey. If it must be moved it should be moved to Austin Healey (rugby player) — Dunc|☺ 10:29, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say they're all rugby related becasue they all correctly refer to the rubgy player article, despite its incorrect placement.Spute 10:32, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Support The car brand (currently at Austin-Healey) is a much more common use of the name 'Austin Healey', and should occupy this article name - although the line:

For the rugby player, see Austin Healey (rugby).

should be kept at the top of this page. The car's name is not usually/always hyphenated, and indeed isn't in the Austin Healey logo. [Image:Wingspr.JPG]. Spute 10:30, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
