Gronkowski → Gronkowski (disambiguation) – Rob Gronkowski is far and away the primary topic of all of these pages. The search term “Gronkowski” should redirect to Rob Gronkowski’s page and his page should have a link to the disambiguation page at the top.

 * Support. Seems like an obvious primary topic.  Calidum   05:08, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose it's a surname. There is no primary topic other than the surname itself. He isn't a dictator like Stalin or Lenin that requires a mononym. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:36, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose - No direct evidence that this is a term primarily attributed to Rob. The main reason we use WP:PRIMARYREDIRECTs for surnames is to aid editors by letting them link what is a very commonly-used mononym. In this case, we should not want an editor to do so. This change doesn't really benefit any readers, who get here via search engines and would bypass the redirect anyway. --Netoholic @  08:54, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Support. When Rob Gronkowski announced his retirement, the Gronkowski page shot up in pageviews. This makes it quite clear that the majority of readers winding up there want his page.|Rob_Gronkowski Nohomersryan (talk) 22:43, 8 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose. The proposed targeting option for the base name seems like a clear case of WP:RECENTISM. Steel1943  (talk) 12:55, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose: Just a surname, not a mononym, and some degree of recentism. —BarrelProof (talk) 22:04, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Under the criterion of long-term significance, people don't get to take over surnames unless they are super famous like Einstein, even if they would be primary among all the notable people with that surname, since they still have to contend with the importance of the surname itself. -- King of &hearts;   &diams;   &clubs;  &spades; 20:54, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
