– Unnecessary disambiguation and inline with other suburbs/towns that don't need disambiguation (such as Abbeyard or Birregurra). Per WP:NCAUST. GMH Melbourne (talk) 02:23, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support: For the reasons I listed [here] Oppose. Viatori (talk) 02:25, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Support, all WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Minxlyn (talk) 23:33, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Can you back that up? Especially in the case of Smiths Beach, Western Australia? Dfadden (talk) 06:40, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't check all 105, but based my assessment on a random sample. At the start of the RM, all were redlinks. Minxlyn (talk) 04:23, 8 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose There is an target for Smiths Beach, Western Australia already, a redirect from Yallingup, as Smiths Beach (WA) is a well known surfing location and appears more notable in its own right than this small Victorian town based on the sources in the subsection of that article. Additionally there is US television series called Granite Flats (with a "s") that is close enough to the proposed move of Granite Flat, Victoria to justify disambiguation. There are probably more dubious nominations in this list too. Once again, I do not object to moves where appropriate under WP:NCAUST, but these nominations are too broad and disparate to allow proper consideration to be given to each.

Comment As also stated at Talk:Adelaide Lead, Victoria: I am happy to withdraw, remove titles that may be contentious and re-request the move however, looking the closing instructions I cannot withdraw considering there have already been 'support' !votes (WP:RMEC). Pinging @Minxlyn & @Viatori asking if they may withdraw their support !votes to assist in the early closure. GMH Melbourne (talk) 14:57, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, I have taken the liberty of setting Smiths Beach up as a disambiguation page and striking from the list above. Where there are minor of one character or a punctuation mark, e.g. Granite Flat, these can be dealt with by hatnotes. There may be others, so if anybody feel specific examples are dubious, suggest following the same process as done for Smith Beach and these can be the subject of discussions in the future if required.

[edit]

– These appear to be the only places with this names, which would make them the WP:PTOPIC. Disambiguation is not required per WP:NCAUS. Therefore per WP:CONCISE we should lose the disambiguation. Any places with similar names can be dealt with by hatnotes or disamb pages per WP:SMALLDETAILS. TarnishedPathtalk 11:15, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
