Oppose "reality should take precedence over fiction" isn't a consideration when determining
WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. In fact, as time goes on and there are fewer uncontacted cultures, the long-term significance of that meaning will diminish. In practice, I certainly hear the astronomical
transit meaning and the sci-fi meaning far more often.

Oppose unconvincing nom based on reality over fiction which has no weight. The previous nom and this lack common primary topic evaluations like "more likely than all others put together", or longevity, so without such an argument, it's a bit in the dark. (as an aside, worth little/nothing for this discussion, Google has
Star Trek: First Contact for the term.). Widefox;

So I've cleaned up the dab and put that high up as stab in the dark most likely, with the non media neatly together. Alternatively, those three could be put at the top as "commonly" or such. Widefox;

Oppose, per above and public understanding of the term. The science-fiction usage will be understood as primary by a significant portion of Wikipedia's readers, enough of a portion to justify the disamb.
