Anthony Blair → Anthony Blair (disambiguation) – Anthony Blair should redirect to Tony Blair, with a corresponding hatnote at the prime minister's article. Given that redirects to Bill Clinton (despite there being a couple of other "William Clinton"s at William Clinton (disambiguation)), I am pretty certain that Prime Minister Blair is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC as much as William Clinton is for Bill Clinton. The American criminal is pretty obscure compared to the ex-British PM and has only received less than a dozen views in the past month, in contrast to the ex-PM who has received several thousand. There is evidently a primary topic in sight here. --Nevé–selbert 19:30, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Support: A hatnote at Tony Blair is a sensible idea, although sadly it met with opposition from one user when I added one some time ago. This is Paul (talk) 22:34, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirect Anthony Blair to Tony Blair and add hatnote, then delete useless two-dabs dab page. The ex-PM is primary topic for his full name.  Pam  D  10:56, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment Antony Blair currently redirects redirected to Tony Blair, not helping anyone who mis-spells the criminal. I've just amended it to point to the dab page for now. Pam  D  11:01, 19 October 2016 (UTC)


 * Support. I was all ready to go along with PamD's suggestion to delete, but found another entry, so it's no longer just two dabs.— Gorthian (talk) 23:11, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Support. WP:PRIMARYTOPIC over the barely notable criminal, and no evidence that J. Anthony Blair is known as simply Anthony Blair. Zarcadia (talk) 17:09, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:14, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
