  • Support per nomination and add Namboothiri (artist) as well as section header "See also" listing Nambudiri. —Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 17:15, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
  • Support Nambudiri has 4,182 views but the artist has 420, Unnikrishnan Namboothiri has 1,259 and Sreelatha Namboothiri has 1,120[[1]] so its unlikely there is a primary topic for this term as the current target has other names meaning the number of people looking for it as opposed to the uses on the DAB using this name is not likely to be more.

  • Weak oppose: Nambudiri is not a "see other" topic, contra Roman Spinner. Namboothiri is another transliteration for Nambudiri. The surname is specifically a caste title. While Crouch, Swale makes a fine point about Nambudiri having other spellings, the pageviews for the other topics should also be discounted as mere partial title matches except to the extent they are referred to mononymously. The only one that appears to be known mononymously by Namboothiri is Namboothiri (artist), but even he is generally instead called "Artist Namboothiri" in sources. Nambudiri already provides disambiguation from group to members by including a section on notable people therein. SilverLocust 💬 19:13, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
  • Oppose. I disagree with the assertion that there's no primary topic. And I'm baffled as to why Namboothiri (artist) isn't on the disambiguation page: I added it. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 08:12, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
