Weak oppose There are several entries on each, and a clear link to the other dab on each. I think this would be slightly more difficult to navigate if put together as it would be that much longer, and would bring no real benefit. Boleyn2 (talk) 08:37, 29 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
The thing that made me propose it was that I was looking for the Oregon politician, who is commonly known as "Jim," but was surprised not to find him at Jim Weaver. Even as a seasoned Wikipedian, my first thought was that his article was not linked, rather than to look for a different dab page. It seems to me that most "James's" are referred to as "Jim" once in a while, and that the distinction doesn't serve much useful purpose. If they're all put together in one page, we can break it down within that page by something more meaningful (i.e. useful to the reader), like "politicians," "sports figures" etc. -Pete (talk) 02:48, 30 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
