• Michael Dickson (American football) → Michael Dickson
• Michael Dickson → Michael Dickson (disambiguation)

– The NFL player should be the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC per page views. The NFL player article averages 222 views per day. There are five other Michael Dicksons but those pages average way fewer views than the NFL player.

• Support per nom, the page views are significantly higher for the NFL player than the other entries combined over a 5-year period, and seems to be PRIMARY.--Ortizesp (talk) 23:56, 19 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. Can't see there's any primary topic by long-term significance. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:00, 23 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose no one person more notable than all others combined. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:44, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose per Necrothesp and In ictu oculi. There are six men listed upon the Michael Dickson disambiguation page, with no indication that the NFL player's renown is at such a level that it dwarfs the combined notability of the remaining five men. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 18:48, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
