Support neither appear to even be ambiguous. Crouch, Swale (talk) 18:04, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would be slightly concerned about confusing "Solomon I" for Solomon or Solomon, King of Hungary. BD2412 T 19:02, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. A regnal numeral does not seem to be used at all for Solomon, King of Hungary, so there is no ambiguity. Rosbif73 (talk) 08:50, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. There's Solomon I (bishop of Constance) and Solomon II (bishop of Constance). Then there's Salomon I and Salomon II, which is just a spelling variant. Compare fr:Salomon II d'Iméréthie. And see de:Salomon I. for some others. We should have a dab page that cover both spellings. Srnec (talk) 20:25, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
But the Imereti monarchs are already primary redirects, and rightly so based on pageviews [1][2] which confirm that they easily meet WP:PT1. Monarchs are also likely to meet WP:PT2 compared with obscure medieval bishops. Variants with differently spelled WP:COMMONNAMEs provide natural disambiguation per WP:SMALLDETAILS; different transliterations in French and German don't affect the subjects' COMMONNAMEs on enwiki.

The whole problem with applying NCROY in this way is that even an expert on modern Georgia who knows these monarchs well does not necessarily know that "Solomon II", on its own, devoid of context, should be taken to refer to one of them. Solomon is a common name and not distinctly Georgian. Witness its use by German bishops and Ethiopian emperors. It isn't like Chlothar II or Bayezid II. The numeral attaches to it not to indicate that Solomon II is the second Solomon but that he is the second Solomon of something. Srnec (talk) 01:54, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The whole point of NCROY is to set out how we name the articles of monarchs whose countries share the same namestock. It doesn't matter whether we are talking extremely common royal names such as Charles (UK, France, Sweden, Spain, Hungary, Romania, etc.) or less common ones such as Solomon (Georgia, Ethiopia, etc.), the principles are exactly the same.

Support per primary topic for that specific spelling, but hatnotes and/or disambiguation pages can be added to avoid confusion with all the names mentioned above. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 11:55, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
