EEA → EEA (disambiguation) – So surprised how EEA is still a dab and doesn't redirect to anything (or even an article with this name) yet. Anyway, it is clear than the European Economic Area is the primary topic for EEA so EEA should redirect there, as evidenced by this graph at the European Economic Area 28k vs European Environmental Agency 925 and the Economic Area is way more popular than the other articles known as the EEA.

 * To try to measure exactly how popular these choices are, we can refer to e.g. WikiNav for EEA and |EEA_(disambiguation)|Eea Monthly page views for all the incoming redirects. So in March '24, we saw 527+207+3=737 total views, and the clickstreams allow us to identify 600 outgoing clicks to economic area and 16 to the environment agency. Any other smaller options aren't shown, which makes sense because at this point the anonymization threshold kicks in (<=10 per src/dest pair). So the proposed primary redirect destination gets ~81% of incoming and ~97% of identifiable outgoing traffic. This is close to safe levels for a primary redirect - though there's still a one fifth of a leftover, which is hard to judge because we have so little data. It would make sense to examine the long-term significance of all the items to try to estimate if there's any potential to confuse a substantial minority of average readers if we go through with this kind of a change. --Joy (talk) 07:37, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I mean, I only ever seen EEA to refer to the economic area, and it is commonly referred to as such (like the EU and UK for European Union and United Kingdom respectively) so its safe to say that the EEA should be primary for the economic area because it has far more views than the rest. This is a somewhat similar case to the IDF where the primary topic for that term has always been the Israel Defence Forces. It's just the fact that IDF was only recently redirected to the Israel defence forces. See the RM for IDF. Plus, even 80% is a lot, so safe to say that the vast majority of people typing EEA or eea in the search bar are looking for the economic area so that they can do so in one less click.
