The result of the move request was: pages moved: Donald Reed → Donald Reed (actor) Donald Reed (disambiguation) → Donald Reed – wbm1058 (talk) 19:13, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

Donald Reed (disambiguation) → Don Reed – Since the disambiguation page lists three men named "Don Reed" and only one (plus one WP:DABMENTION) named "Donald Reed", the more-intuitive main title header for the dab page would be "Don Reed", especially since the four-sentence stub for minor actor Donald Reed does not come close to what is expected of a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 21:48, 20 March 2020 (UTC)


 * move to Donald Reed (ie disambiguate all, moving current primary to Donald Reed (actor)) - I don't know if this is supported by current guidelines, but I think for human name disambiguation pages which combine both long and short forms of given names, that we would benefit from being more consistent about the DAB page being at the full name. Surely, most (all) "Don"s listed here were born as "Donald". I also don't see the actor stub at Donald Reed currently as primary over any others. -- Netoholic @ 08:52, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
 * If consensus skews towards the suggested proposal of moving Donald Reed →‎ Donald Reed (actor) and Donald Reed (disambiguation) →‎ Donald Reed, with Don Reed continuing as a redirect to the base name, I would also support those alternatives. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 18:19, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Support this alternative. 2 of the 3 Dons are shown in the articles as being Donald. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 08:39, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
