- Each politician presents a notability and represents a constituency which is different from that of any other politician and each such discussion is evaluated by a Wikipedia constituency which may be different from that in a previous discussion.

I've added a lot of references for Healey's electoral history. However, I had to remove a lot of unreferenced information. I'll admit, I didn't take lots of time to find references, but I will get round to it. In the meantime, this page still needs a few more references in order to keep it relevant and accurate.

– Primary topic because of page views and long term significance. Previous requested move discussion was a bit flawed because John P. Healey is not commonly known as simply "John Healey". Pinging participants (who are not blocked) in previous discussion. @Roman Spinner: @JFG: Sahaib (talk) 14:57, 6 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
- Oppose – Well, the disambiguation page shows other John Healeys too. Whilst it is likely that in the short/medium term that this John Healey is the most searched for out of them (whilst people discover who he is), I'm not sure if that ultimately is the clearest, most easily accessible, format in the medium to longer term.

- Support – WP:PRIMARYTOPIC Healey has become the Defence Secretary and he has the importance for his page to be the primary topic. Jeremy Hulber (talk) 23:06, 6 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
- Support — the John Healey page should doubtlessly have "(disambiguation)" added to it and the politician is now defence secretary of the United Kingdom, meaning he is much more influential than the other individuals. Gammawammallama (talk) 22:11, 7 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
- Support per nom.--Ortizesp (talk) 16:42, 9 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
- Support per nom. Obvious who the main topic here will be. --Atchom (talk) 18:41, 9 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
- Support as per nomination. Clearly most significant of those named. Coldupnorth (talk) 12:23, 11 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

A cite of an opinion column by Mr Healey has been brought up on the reliable sources noticeboard: Opinion piece in The Sun, used solely as evidence of its author's views. Peter Gulutzan (talk) 15:19, 3 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
