GutenbergGutenberg (disambiguation)Johannes Gutenberg is WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for Gutenberg. Sharper {talk} 12:19, 30 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support, of course. Good nom, thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 15:22, 30 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak oppose The Gutenberg Bible is also a potential primary topic. It recieves less views than Gutenberg himself, but not by much, relatively speaking - at times their view counts are almost the same.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 16:33, 30 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Interesting take that I hadn't considered. My interpretation of WP:PARTIAL, however, is that Gutenberg Bible would only really belong on the Gutenberg dab page in the first place if it was commonly referred to as "Gutenberg" (or "the Gutenberg") – which I haven't heard before, but I suppose I can see that being within the realm of reason. Should somebody looking for the Gutenberg Bible expect to find that by simply typing "Gutenberg" though? Sharper {talk} 21:51, 30 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • I think it's enough to assume that someone typing "Gutenberg" may not want the person the majority of the time. The Gutenberg Bible is also a massively well known historical artifact and may be where some people even found out about Gutenberg himself.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 05:06, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Leaning support given the apparent absence of any other articles that compete for primariness. As Sharper says, I don't think the bible is commonly referred to as just "Gutenberg". I have heard Project Gutenberg referred to as "Gutenberg" in informal contexts, but I think readers seeking information on the project are very likely to use the full name (also, it gets a little under half the views of Johannes - pageviews). But if there's doubt, it would be a simple matter to set up a WP:DABTEST to measure what % of visitors to this dab page click through to Johannes. Colin M (talk) 16:11, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per Colin M. Gutenberg Bible is a partial title match, not a primary topic. power~enwiki (π, ν) 18:25, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Johannes is also a PTM. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:10, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Clear primary topic. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:38, 6 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
