Talk:Brian Banks (baseball)

Citation
Reliable citation? The story was all over the media last May. I'm currently writing something about it for another site, but you can check out the California Innocence Project, the BBC and YouTube to start with. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.183.124.220 (talk) 16:41, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

Move

 * The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the proposal was moved to Brian Banks (baseball). For now, Brian Banks will be a dab. There's an ongoing RM at Talk:Brian Banks (American football), so arguments for him being WP:PRIMARYTOPIC should be made there. --BDD (talk) 17:38, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Brian Banks → Brian Glen Banks – We know his middle name so we should move this there so that we can use the BB page as a disambig for him and the football player. Ranze (talk) 02:36, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Support creating a disambiguation page -- 76.65.128.222 (talk) 04:36, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Oppose He's not commonly known by his middle name, so people won't be searching for him by his middle name. Plus, if there's only two pages to disambiguate from, WP:TWODABS says a hat note, as is currently in place, is sufficient. – Muboshgu (talk) 14:17, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Move to Brian Banks (baseball) neither are WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and (sorry User:Muboshgu) WP:TWODABS says "if an ambiguous term has no primary topic, then that term needs to lead to a disambiguation page." In ictu oculi (talk) 03:02, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Actually I'm striking my above !vote and saying I support a move of Brian Banks to Brian Banks (baseball) with a corresponding move of Brian Banks (American football) to Brian Banks. Check out the page view statistics. The football player is clearly a primary topic. There is no need for a dab page here, I don't think. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:23, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm also striking object to Brian Banks as primary - for football alone no, but given the legal notability doesn't look just WP:RECENT then yes he may well be primary. The dab however Brian Banks (disambiguation) will still be needed because of the musician of The Beepers. I'm surprised he doesn't have his own article, he gets more hits than the band.
