Two item disab page (unless someone has replaced the Faraday Constant, something that is never referred to simply as Faraday or the Faraday). The standard convention in such an instance would be to give the geographical location the primary topic with a hatnote leading to Michael Faraday... who I'd also challenge as to being referred to as Faraday. -  ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ  τ ¢  01:46, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Take a look at Special:WhatLinksHere/Faraday – most of those are intended for the physicist, not the obscure Canadian town with a population of 1,578. Jenks24 (talk) 13:41, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Thats because those incorrect links, which lead to a redirect, should have been bypassed and lead to the correct target of Michael Faraday. Those links can easily be changed, its a question of whether "Faraday" alone is used to refer to the physicist. -  ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ  τ ¢  14:55, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, the links are incorrect, but the fact remains that many people linked to Faraday in the belief that would redirect to Michael Faraday. As can be seen by those links, he is often referred to as simply Faraday. Jenks24 (talk) 05:37, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose Faraday should be a disambiguation page. 76.65.129.5 (talk) 05:43, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose; I find it hard to believe that an obscure town in Ontario is more widely sought than the physicist and the unit of measurement named after him. Powers T 13:05, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
