Wild Wing (disambiguation) → Wild Wing – No clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, per Pageviews. Paradoctor (talk) 11:52, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose OP's graph clearly shows that Wild Wing Restaurants, the current primary topic, gets the majority of the pageviews. 162 etc. (talk) 12:12, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That is not sufficient: WP:PRIMARYTOPIC: primary for a term with respect to usage if it is highly likely—much more likely than any other single topic (my emphasis). This is not the case here.

A further consideration is that Wild Wing has been directing some traffic to the restaurant chain that shouldn't have gone there. Experience has shown that in situation like this, pageviews of the alleged primary normally drop significantly relative to the other meanings, to the point where it becomes obvious that a primary never existed.

Two-thirds of the pageviews go to the current primary topic. That's a clear WP:PT1. 162 etc. (talk) 13:11, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
86664/155804 = 56%

And you have not factored in the misdirected traffic. Paradoctor (talk) 13:43, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm disregarding "Wild Wings" which is a WP:PTM, and considering the views from 2024, which gives us a current picture[1]. That gives us 67%, or nearly 72% if we include both the article and the primary redirect. 162 etc. (talk) 14:45, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Still not accounting for the misdirected traffic.

"disregarding": cherry picking. And how is a plural a PTM of the singular? By that measure, both Wild Wing Restaurant and Wild Wing Cafe are PTMs too, and Wild Wing should redirect to the mascot, which is the only exact match.

67, 72, whatever: 2:1 is not much more. Given the context, this is comfortably within the margin error, especially given that you're still not accounting for the misdirected traffic. Paradoctor (talk) 15:37, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is "much more likely than any other single topic". 162 etc. (talk) 00:39, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:55, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support. My rule of thumb is that the ratio of primary topic views vs. all other topic views should be 10:1, which has not been met. Steel1943 (talk) 19:07, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
