Sean LoweSean Lowe (baseball) – There is a same person between a retired baseball player and a reality star appearing in The Bachelorette and The Bachelor. While the current article link will likely to rewrite for the reality star's page and rumors from Internet sites on competing another ABC reality show. Google search page has over 33.2 million hits for the reality star over 1.65 million with the baseball player. ApprenticeFan work 06:57, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • I added a hatnote to distinguish two people with same name. --George Ho (talk) 10:29, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. At the moment, this is the only article titled "Sean Lowe". Somebody can write an article for the reality star. After 30 days, we'll have some page view numbers. Kauffner (talk) 12:51, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • As with the proposal, a Google search with the person on the reality star is the most popular in the site. The reality star's season of The Bachelor will end in almost two weeks and has no official announcement of joining the upcoming season of Dancing with the Stars. Also, Google Images search [1] sees the photos of the reality star and nothing with the baseball player. ApprenticeFan work 13:26, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Kauffner.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 16:36, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per the above and TOOSOON.--ukexpat (talk) 18:09, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

– The last move request gave a result of unanimously 3-0 oppose vote, there are now two articles with the title "Sean Lowe". The baseball named star has only fewer 4.1 Ghits. As the famous "Sean Lowe" of The Bachelor and Dancing With the Stars has a trending Ghit. As a nominator, I give a support vote to move and rename title articles.

  • Support 1st Oppose 2nd - nothing too much has changed, Google Books is still full of references to the Baseball player and the reality television celebrity is still just that. However if ApprenctieFan you are willing to edit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Sean_Lowe (most of them are template mentions) then yes, would support adding (baseball) and creation of a classic 50/50 dab page per WP:TWODABS.

That will at least help Android users and people who use Google or the drop down RH search box. In Australia neither of these are as notable as Shane Lowe. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:52, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with the adding (baseball) for the (original) Sean Lowe article (created in 2008 when it had a small notability as a baseball player). By a filling of Sean Lowe article of (The Bachelor) and The Bachelor wasn't his first reality show, but he was first actually competed in The Bachelorette, Mr. Sean Lowe went notable after appeared in three ABC reality shows (in a course of a total of 53 weeks of airtime), and plus the TV wedding special. And if the two dabs will going to work, I'm going to suggesting to request renaming an article from Sean Lowe (The Bachelor) to Sean Thomas Lowe, in which (The Bachelor) article name is not valid.

Just as concurred, only neither of which is a solution of a case with the article confusion. I bet the second Sean Lowe is more notable as a reality star than being the retired baseball player. ApprenticeFan work 04:42, 24 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • The result stats in Google are a bit confusing, if you search "Sean Lowe" and mostly seen as reality TV star rather than baseball player. Notability is much gained in the past 18 months.
  • Plus, the original Sean Lowe article (baseball player, not the reality star) shown at 4593 views during 27 January 2014, this referred about the live televised wedding to ("the other" reality star) Lowe's then-fiancée, Catherine Giudici, and the Google stats has 2.81 million views.
  • Also, here's the news on the reality star's sites that you've going to read, all of which are from People magazine: [2], [3], [4]
