replies: text: He only needs to compete with the drummer, since the other two are both Michaels rather than Mikes. I'd say he easily outdoes the drummer for PRIMARYTOPIC, and suggest a move request be started. Frickeg (talk) 06:05, 9 August 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: Mike Baird (politician) →  – Clearly the primary topic for the diminutive form of the name, as opposed to Mike Baird (musician). Significant politician and premier. Stats.grok.se Use of this tool indicates there may even be an argument for him being the primary topic for "Michael Baird" too going by page views, but it's probably better to keep the disambiguation on that one for now.

After one support and one oppose appeared, I was a little worried the motion may not carry. May I say thanks to all for what is a no-brainer move. Timeshift (talk) 01:32, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Mike Baird's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

message: I noticed your deletion and, having given it some thought, reverted. Of course material about the subject's immediate family is pertinent to the story of that person. Moreover, caring for people with dementia is part of this person's life, at the family level and, it seems, at the career level too. Please make your case to have it removed here.The Little Platoon (talk) 00:21, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
