Design[edit]

John Bradfield did not 'design' the Sydney Harbour Bridge... It was based upon a bridge designed by W G Laws and built in Wylam (opened in 1876). And even then the Wylam railway bridge design was adapted by British firm Dorman Long and Co Ltd of Middlesbrough not Bradfield. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.23.117.197 (talk) 12:36, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

– Primary topic for usage and long-term significance. The engineer averages ~40 views per day compared with 4 views per day for the others combined. [1] As the designer of a major landmark this is likely to continue to be the case.

  • Oppose – four obscure guys by this name; no reason to do a primarygrab on one of them. Dicklyon (talk) 05:55, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • weak Oppose - it could be that way but it already is this, doesn't need to be tidied. Being OZ he is my primary topic but not necessarily anyone elses. Dave Rave (talk) 08:23, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Dicklyon plus WP:TITLECHANGES. There is a cost to readers for pageswaps, and no benefit in this case. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 04:40, 15 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Can't see any primary topic here. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:43, 15 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
