Should this article be moved to the base name, "Regina George" and the sprinter be moved to something like "Regina George (sprinter)". This character is significantly more well known in pop culture than the sprinter (when googled literally nothing about the sprinter). Just wondering xx.

– Per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC with respect to long-term significance. Regina George the character has been an enduring archetype for 20 years and counting, having been the subject of continued academic and media analysis since she first appeared in 2004. In contrast, the athlete has not done anything notable since 2016. feminist🩸 (talk) 15:09, 16 February 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Bensci54 (talk) 17:41, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- Comment Regina George (sprinter) would be preferred, per WP:NCSP#Athletics (track and field). 162 etc. (talk) 16:35, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks, I have updated my nomination to reflect that. (For editors viewing this discussion later on, I originally proposed Regina George (athlete).) feminist🩸 (talk) 17:54, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
- Support 2nd move per nom — but Neutral/Weak Oppose 1st move. Since primary topic swaps are often messy, I'd recommend having a disambiguation page at the basename as the safest bet for now. Paintspot Infez (talk) 17:48, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
- Support I think there's a compelling case here, the fictional character is an archetype that made her notorious years after the original movie was released so she qualifies as the primary topic. Killuminator (talk) 01:08, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose 1st, Support 2nd - disambiguate both for a time, ensure links are clean and incoming traffic settles, then we can revisit in the future. -- Netoholic @ 08:42, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
- Comment — Yup, totally agreed (like, you phrased it way better than I could)! Paintspot Infez (talk) 00:21, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
- Support both per nom. Underclass King (talk) 20:50, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose 1st, Support 2nd and create a dabpage at basename. If a fictional character is not at the recognition level of Harry Potter then they should almost never take precedence over a real person. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:44, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
- Relisting comment: Consensus has been formed on the second move. Need consensus on first move, whether to leave as is and make a dab page, or move as proposed. Bensci54 (talk) 17:41, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- Support the other has 26,897 views compared with only 1,089] for this one. If anything the other is primary but a DAB would be fine. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:46, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
