Woody → Woody (disambiguation) – I propose that we move this article, Woody, to Woody (disambiguation) so that we can make a redirect page to redirect Woody to Sheriff Woody Kaleeb18 (talk) 21:34, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose There are many other topics which would better suit the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of Woody over this character, but in either case I think this is best left as a disamb page. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 21:57, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose You have not made a convincing argument (or indeed any argument) to show that Sheriff Woody could be considered the primary topic. ClaudineChionh (talk – contribs) 22:16, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I wasnt trying to make an argument i was just proposing something Kaleeb18 (talk) 02:07, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, I meant argument as in supporting statements, not as in dispute. ClaudineChionh (talk – contribs) 02:19, 4 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Oppose. IMO, the main other topic that blocks this from being primary is Woody plant. And yes, the cartoon character gets |Woody_plant around 4x as many daily pageviews, but the botanical concept is of much more fundamental, long-term, "encyclopedic" significance. One indicator of this is that it has around 3x as many incoming wikilinks (not counting links from navboxes or other templates). Colin M (talk) 22:20, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose and speedy close. 162 etc. (talk) 00:39, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose move. The Toy Story character is not a clear primary topic.  O.N.R.  (talk) 06:29, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose per what everyone else is saying. My question is why we are using "Sheriff Woody" instead of "Woody (Toy Story)"? I guess it could be because of "natural disambiguation", but I don't think I've ever actually encountered the term "Sheriff Woody". Which makes it seem very unnatural and like something we made up. --Khajidha (talk) 14:39, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
