The result of the move request was: pages moved to return to the most recent placement in the wake of a lot of move churn (and the new dab at the (disambiguation) title). -- JHunterJ (talk) 01:20, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

Mary Kennedy (Irish) → Mary Kennedy – Obviously unnecessary precision, probably counts as a technical move. PatGallacher (talk) 01:32, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose Mary Kennedy should be a disambiguation page, considering its use the the American Kennedy family. 70.24.251.208 (talk) 03:43, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Reply Who would be on this disambiguation page? The Mary Kennedy who died recently, wife of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., does not have a biography, and must be presumed non-notable.  Looking down this article on the Kennedy family, there are no people primarily known as Mary Kennedy with a biography, although there are a few with Mary in their name somewhere.  I stand by the view that this person is the primary meaning (and even if she isn't "Irish" isn't a very good disambiguator). PatGallacher (talk) 09:28, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - but there needs to be Mary Kennedy (disambiguation) for:
 * Mary Kennedy (Irish scholar)
 * Mary Kennedy, wife of Robert F. Kennedy Jr http://edition.cnn.com/2012/05/16/us/mary-kennedy-dead/index.html
 * Mary Kennedy, Irish TV presenter
 * Mary Kennedy (ship), 1829 Skye settlers on Prince Edward Island
 * the TV presenter is more notable than the Irish language activist. In ictu oculi (talk) 11:35, 17 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Well, somebody acted improperly by diving in and making some changes before we resolved this. I suggest we agree that this person is the primary meaning before sorting out whether we need a disambiguation page and if so who should be on it. PatGallacher (talk) 17:12, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
