Gryphon → Gryphon (disambiguation) – Griffin is the primary topic for this disambiguation page, so Gryphon should redirect there and the current page be moved to the disambiguation title. – &#32;-- Fyrael (talk) 14:24, 17 August 2016 (UTC)

 * A griffin is a mythical animal in old legends and is not primary above the real items listed in the disambig page Gryphon. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 09:46, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
 * As far as I know, real vs mythical is not in any way an indication of primacy.&#32;-- Fyrael (talk) 00:49, 21 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Three reasons I would consider Griffin to be primary: 1) According to |Gryphon_(band)|Gryphon_(film)|Gryphon_Airlines|Gryphon_(geology)|Gryphon_Publications|Gryphon_Audio_Designs|Gryphon_School page views seen here the next most popular article (Gryphon (band)) has about 4% of the views that Griffin does. However, it's possible that I missed a more notable alternate topic as I had to makes guesses because of reason number 2) I've personally never once heard of any of the other topics here. I realize that's not the strongest rationale, but it does seem at least slightly relevant. And 3) multiple editors (including and ) have placed Griffin above the other entries as we would when there is a primary topic. I reverted one such effort (and I guess should change it back again until this discussion is over) simply because that style is incorrect without a page move. That suggests to me that other editors agree to Griffin's primacy, but hopefully they will come and speak for themselves.&#32;-- Fyrael (talk) 00:49, 21 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Personally, I would change Griffin's title to Gryphon if I had my way, since that is the proper spelling. But I think the proposed move to make gryphon a redirect to griffin is fine.  Serendi pod ous  06:46, 21 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Support – The mythical creature is the clear primary topic; all disambig items were named after it (long-term significance criterion) and it gets more traffic (popularity criterion). — JFG talk 00:52, 22 August 2016 (UTC)
