Morning radio call

I'm not going to say there wasn't a daily call to Bruno Gerusi but I do know, for certain, that there was a daily call to Keith Rich on CKEY in Toronto. 72.38.169.50 (talk) 14:52, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

– Not at all clear that the Canadian actor would be a permanent WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for this name, over and above other people in the disambiguation page. In fact, comparing him just to Michael Magee (writer) alone, the writer has the higher page views — only on September 21 did the writer dip below the actor in page views, and even then only by a whopping total of two, while the overall average over the past three weeks was 29 daily views for the writer to 13 daily views for the actor. (That's obviously not enough of a difference to render the writer into primary topic either, so the base title should be a disambiguation page, but it is enough to wreck any claim that the actor should be the primary topic.) And I even just caught a case where one of the writer's novels existed as a redirect to the actor instead of to the writer, which I've already corrected. The actor was largely only ever known in Canada, and even then was almost better known by the character pseudonym "Fred C. Dobbs" than by his own real name, so he's hardly a universal primary topic to the world. Bearcat (talk) 15:16, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support, no PRIMARY.--Ortizesp (talk) 17:46, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support the writer has 599 views compared with only 282[[1]] for the actor. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:07, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. No primary topic. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:26, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
