*'''Support''' - truth be told he was known as other names before his Kane persona, but Isaac Ynakem DDS and Fake Diesel are really the closest to his common name and they obviously aren't going to be his article title. <font color="Fuchsia">[[User:Afkatk|Afro]]</font> ([[User talk:Afkatk|<font color="Red">'''Blah Blah Here'''</font>]]) <sup>- Afkatk</sup> 18:25, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

*'''Response''' No, it is certainly not "bunk". This very issue has been discussed on Wikipedia many times, and the consensus seems to be that a specific qualifier is required when a generic one would apply to more than one article. For example, there have been multiple movies named "Avatar". As you know, the most recent one is obviously the most successful and the one that most people would be searching for if they type in "Avatar (film)" or something similar. However, that is a redirect to a section of the "Avatar" disambiguation page because each Avatar film has a specific qualifier&mdash;[[Avatar (2009 film)]] for the most recent, which is not given preferential treatment over [[Avatar (2004 film)]], despite the facts that most readers will not have seen the latter and that the latter was released under a different name in several large markets. In a case like this, and with [[Kane (wrestler)]], one is certainly more well known, but Wikipedia policy on naming conventions supercedes a WP:PW-wide "IDONTLIKEIT" vote.

:There are two Brad Pitts, and the actor takes the article title because he is more famous and more well known. Just because something has a similar name does not mean that a disambiguation is necessary. A few months with a stint is not enough to force a disambiguation. IDONTLIKEIT and neither does Wikipedia.

Ok Gary I added a possible move as Kane (WWE wrestler). Is that ok with you?--[[User:Curtis23|The guy dubbed Curtis23]] [[User talk:Curtis23|Curtis23's talk]] 00:49, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
