Requested move

Vince Coleman (baseball) → Vince Coleman … Rationale: Vince Coleman was a two-person dab page for 18 months before I changed to a redirect. It's been a while since I redirected and no one has commented so I want to put the baseball player article in the regular Vince Coleman area. —Wknight94 (talk) 04:53, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vince Coleman → Vince Coleman (baseball) – Last discussed in 2006. While the baseball player had an exceptional career, Vince Coleman (train dispatcher) has significant long-term notability for his actions prior to the Halifax Explosion. Pageviews numbers [1] are also quite similar. Recommend move per WP:NOPRIMARY. 162 etc. (talk) 20:21, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support the train dispatcher gets 8,772 views compared with 9,085 for this one which is close. Crouch, Swale (talk) 09:26, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support Dispatcher outpaced the baseball player in views in 2021. Frankly, the latter wouldn't be that memorable if he didn't once throw a lit firecracker at fans... Nohomersryan (talk) 19:48, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
