:William Simpson (judge) → {{no redirect|William Simpson (Australian judge)}} – Insufficient disambiguation, given that William Dunlap Simpson was also a judge. BD2412 T 00:43, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
- Support Dunlap has 110 views compared with only 17William_Dunlap_Simpson for the Australian judge. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:27, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
- Support per nomination and Crouch, Swale. William Simpson (judge) should redirect to the William Simpson#Others disambiguation page. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 01:04, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
- Support, agree with all of the above. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 01:39, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose as unnecessary. If William Dunlap Simpson is virtually always referred by that name, which appears to be the case, the article titles are non-identical and don't need to be disambiguated. Any possible confusion is better handled by a hatnote on this article, which I've just added. Station1 (talk) 01:28, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
- That's not how it works. Still incomplete disambiguation. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:38, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
- Support per nom. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:58, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
