Mertens → Mertens (disambiguation) – Mertens most commonly refers to Dries Mertens, and I think he is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, so this should redirect to Dries Mertens. ErceÇamurOfficial ( talk) 17:32, 18 April 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. – Material Works 15:39, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
Support100% navigation to Dries Mertens according to WikiNav, Dries Mertens has nearly 25,000 pageviews and only one or two others on this page has more than 500. Clear primary topic. Support moving to Mertens (surname) per BD2412. Snowmanonahoe ( talk) 18:16, 18 April 2023 (UTC); edited 21:37, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose. If there is a primary topic, the current page should be moved to
Mertens (surname). This is not a disambiguation page, so it would be improper to move it to a disambiguation title just to get it out of the way.

- Comment. To editor
MaterialWorks: now that this RM has been reopened, it is malformed because the previous current title is now a redirect, and redirects are ineligible to be a current titles in move requests. To be reopened correctly, the
Mertens (surname) page should be moved back to
Mertens.

- Still oppose not clear what's going on, but Mertens does not have a primary topic, leave well as is. In ictu oculi ( talk) 21:11, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose moving Mertens to DAB or to Mertens (surname). Dries Mertens is not the primary topic. The example provided in WP:RPURPOSE is redirecting Einstein to Albert Einstein; a Belgian footballer who will likely not be searched for as much after his career ends is not even close to being analogous. If someone wants to find Dries Mertens, they would likely search for Dries Mertens, not enter just his last name. voorts ( talk/ contributions) 22:03, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
