Redirect and move
Redirect to Hong Kong and move content to HK (disambiguation)? Other uses doesn't seem notable (and 7 out of ten doesn't have an article). Aran|heru|nar 11:20, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * My only hesitation about that is the redirect tag will be at the top of the Hong Kong article, effectively making HK the primary redirect - is that warranted?--Bookandcoffee 19:41, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm rather skeptical about such a move: Heckler and Koch is a pretty common sense, very commonly abbreviated as such, and top google hit when I try it.  (If that's search customisation, I hate to think what web search engines have decided about me.)  In contrast, "Hong Kong" is overwhelmingly written in full -- at least in western media, which is a huge part of the weighting of "common English-language usage".  Other than it's TLD, or in contexts where a 2LA is called for, or when being the "H" in Honkers and Shankers Bankers.  Alai 02:31, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't know what the search engines have decided for me either, but Heckler and Koch doesn't top the list when I try the same thing on Google. BBC.co.uk uses HK for headlines, and so as CNN.com . &mdash; Instantnood 16:01, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

I must defend the Holt-Kualapalan definition, he really is a well known HK. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.132.18.194 (talk • contribs) 23 January 2008

While Hong Kong is of course well known, I can't imagine people searching for or linking "HK" instead of "Hong Kong" frequently. I don't see the need for this redirect. --Bxj (talk) 09:19, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
