replies: text: You would need to discuss this on a wider level as the fruit is obviously the primary usage for the term. If you think a move is in order then set up a discussion and file a request at WP:RM. Keith D (talk) 20:42, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

message: As followed on iOS it seems sensible to have two primary topics here, the fruit and the computer company. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 09:12, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: iOS is not even an example of primary topic disambiguation, which only applies where the page includes "(disambiguation)" in the title -- indicating that the primary topic is at the base name. iOS is an example where the most common uses are placed at the top of an otherwise ordinary disambiguation page. That is not primary topic disambiguation. On this page, the apple corporation is already at the top of the list after the primary topic. older ≠ wiser 12:54, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

message: Same as The Apple was merged here, The Apples should also be merged here. That's just partial disambiguation. 70.24.251.208 (talk) 04:55, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: That's not partial disambiguation. Since the set of things ambiguous with "The Apples" (i.e., that users my seek by typing "The Apples" into the search box), leaving them separate seems appropriate and best for the readers. -- JHunterJ (talk) 11:05, 15 June 2012 (UTC)

message: Why did you close the RM? This RM was proposed by an anonymous user and this talk page has been protected till 18:29, 29 September 2020. Also, the nom has been blocked for 1 month. So, I believe that discussions shouldn't be closed while the nom is blocked. Neel.arunabh (talk) 16:37, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: The IP in question was blocked as a sockpuppet- that alone would be sufficient reason to close the RM, as per WP:DENY. We definitely shouldn't be leaving it open until a block expires for a sockpuppet. Joseph2302 (talk) 11:23, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

text: What would you do with Apples (plural) if this was moved to Apple (fruit)? do you think that even though there are a few obscure uses and the company's products can be pluralized that the fruit is primary for the plural per WP:PLURALPT? Google results do mainly return the fruit though there are a few results for the company. I'd say that the fruit is clearly primary for the plural by long-term significance and possibly also by usage. Crouch, Swale (talk)  19:04, 28 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  redirects to Orange (fruit), the plural of which is the primary topic for the term "oranges".  Similar treatment for apples would seem appropriate. Certes (talk) 22:48, 28 February 2021 (UTC)

text: *Yes, anyone searching with "apples" is almost certainly looking for the fruit. The fruit is the PLURALPT. --В²C ☎ 05:53, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
