– Groucho's Captain Spaulding is clearly the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. The other two characters, one of whom is spelled "Spalding", are obvious homages to the original. —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 07:25, 3 November 2017 (UTC)

Captain Spaulding (Animal Crackers) –
The ol' reversal. Last month, I
moved the page to "Captain Spaulding (Animal Crackers), and I noticed that this change
was recently undone (on a side note, I'd like to point out that this reversion probably should not have been listed as "uncontroversial", per
WP:RM#CM). I have to disagree with the consensus reached by the November discussion.
I disagree with Roman Spinner's claim that the Groucho character is "clearly" the primary topic, and I invite readers of this discussion to review WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Though Groucho's Spaulding came first, and was the inspiration for the Rob Zombie character's name, the latter character is "highly likely—much more likely than any other single topic, and more likely than all the other topics combined—to be the topic sought when a reader searches for that term". In fact, when I searched for "Captain Spaulding" on Google, Groucho's Spaulding didn't show up until the fifth page of results (not including the Wikipedia article in question). Results for the Zombie character are also significantly more prevalent when searching for "Captain Spaulding" on Bing, Yahoo, and YouTube. Again, Groucho's Spaulding came first, and Zombie's Spaulding owes his name to him, but Zombie's Spaulding nonetheless has much more coverage and popularity than Groucho's. – Matthew - ( talk) 03:58, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
