 * Support. I say that this move belongs on WP:RM/TR. The WP:PRIMARYTOPIC is not clear, and it is possible that a lot of the articles with links to David Z are linked to the wrong article. Steel1943  (talk) 07:48, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Support - first mentioned in Google Books is the other David Z. In ictu oculi (talk) 12:16, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Important Note: a HUGE SNAFU happened in regards to this page move; unfortunately, I'm to blame for half of it for moving the wrong article to David Z before realizing that the old version of David Z was not moved ANYWHERE as part of this page move. I was trying to revert the moves performed before the move request was closed. But I did not realize, until it was too late, that the old version of David Z was completely deleted, rather than being moved ANYWHERE. For some reason, I had a brain lapse and thought that David Z was moved to David Z (disambiguation), which looking back, does not make sense since full articles never have the "(disambiguation)" disambiguator. So, I moved David Z (disambiguation) on top of the recently-deleted David Z, and now, cannot find the name of the administrator who deleted the previous version of David Z. Anyways, my request to partially remedy this can be found here: Requests for undeletion. Thanks, and I apologize for any trouble I may have caused by incorrectly fixing stuff.

Regarding my deletion concern in the above section
I'm going to post this here so that others may be able to understand what happened in regards to my request at Requests for undeletion; this is my response from JamesBWatson: "“There is actually nothing to undelete. The original article David Z was moved to David Zablidowsky on 26 October 2013 by Geo Swan, before the move discussion was started. David Zablidowsky was then turned into a redirect to ZO2. All that was left at David Z was a redirect to ZO2, and that was what was overwritten when you moved David Z (disambiguation). There was also a record in the history of David Z of an earlier redirect to David Zablidowsky, but absolutely no article content has been deleted at all: only redirects.” JamesBWatson (talk) 10:54, 1 November 2013 (UTC)" ...That what was found in regards to my concern. What I did not know was of the existence of David Zablidowsky, or the move that resulted in its creation; I could not find any clues in the histories after I moved David Z (disambiguation) to David Z. Anyways, hope that clears up any confusion or concerns that might have arose by my statement above! Steel1943 (talk) 15:31, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
 * ...And I just remembered that David Z was a redirect before the discussion started. It seems that all of my confusion came from the incomplete page move. Steel1943  (talk) 16:10, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
