Maggie Malone (athlete)Maggie Malone – Biography should take precedence over fictional character redirect. On completion, article should just have hatnote for Growing Pains character. SFB 00:40, 15 July 2016 (UTC)\Reply

  • Support - As noted above, redirect should be applied to the character as a BLP is more significant. Meatsgains (talk) 01:57, 15 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Support per nom. The fictional character doesn't even have an article, so a hatnote will be sufficient. PC78 (talk) 16:47, 15 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Support – While the TV character may be more well-known and therefore has a strong claim to primary topic, the fact that we have a real person notable enough to have a standalone article tips the scale in favor of the athlete. Also, let's speculate a bit for fun on a Sunday evening: given the latter's birth date, she may well have been named after the TV character; any clues in an interview somewhere? — JFG talk 00:11, 25 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Support Per PC78. And now she is an Olympic athlete who will receive additional coverage in the next two weeks (depending on how well she does), meaning there will be a lot of people looking up who she is and getting the wrong answer from wikipedia by the current redirect vs a non-existent article for a factional character whose notability will not likely be improving over time. There absolutely should be hatnotes. Trackinfo (talk) 00:19, 25 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
