Ben Shelton (tennis) → Ben Shelton
Ben Shelton → Deleted to make way for page move

– Already the primary topic for this name: The baseball player, whose page averaged 3 hits a day before the tennis player's page existed, has had only 3% the all-time pageviews of the tennis player (an NCAA champion and US Open semifinalist).

Support per nom.--Ortizesp (talk) 05:15, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nomination and Ortizesp. No need for a disambiguation page when there is such a wide disparity between the two entries. The three-sentence stub for Ben Shelton (baseball) describes a player whose entire Major League career lasted five weeks. A hatnote atop the tennis player's entry will suffice. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 01:10, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Per OP, makes sense. Aszx5000 (talk) 12:15, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support per Roman Spinner. A hatnote would work perfectly. Unnamelessness (talk) 12:28, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
