– There are three other men listed at the Hugh Gordon (disambiguation) page and it does not appear that the parasitologist who died 17 years ago and whose entry appears in one other Wikipedia (Arabic Wikipedia), left a historical legacy of such exalted level that his entry would the obvious choice for WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. The qualifier "(parasitologist)" is analogous to its use in such main title headers as Robert Knowles (parasitologist), Susan Lim (parasitologist), František Moravec (parasitologist)  or Andrew Thompson (parasitologist). — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 04:52, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Hugh Gordon → Hugh Gordon (parasitologist)
 * Hugh Gordon (disambiguation) → Hugh Gordon
 * Weak support the other 2 titled "Hugh Gordon" get 22 views compared to the parasitologist's 29 but Hugh Gordon Cummins gets 79[|Hugh_Gordon_(violin_maker)|Hugh_Gordon_(British_Army_officer)|Hugh_Gordon_(Australian_politician)|Hugh_Gordon_Porteus|Hugh_Gordon_Cummins|Hugh_Gordon_Malcolm]. Its not clear however how many readers want Hugh Gordon Cummins with just "Hugh Gordon".  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 07:52, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Support. None of the pages titled "Hugh Gordon" get a significant amount of traffic. The parasitologist gets roughly |Hugh_Gordon|Hugh_Gordon_(violin_maker)|Hugh_Gordon_(British_Army_officer)|Hugh_Gordon_(Australian_politician) half of the page views but that's probably inflated due to his article occupying the base name, which itself is simply because his article was created first. No clear primary topic. PC78 (talk) 13:15, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Support per nom and above. -- Netoholic @ 19:39, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. Doesn't seem to be any reason to put this particular Hugh Gordon above the other Hugh Gordon. Juxlos (talk) 23:43, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Support. It's not clear that the page at the base name has more views than the other candidates combined. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 14:28, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Support Per above mentioned. Barca (talk) 14:22, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
