Not a proper disambiguation page. There's only one legit entry, the one in Portland; the rest are partial matches, except for Hollywood, which I've never heard called "Hollywood District". Clarityfiend (talk) 04:33, 27 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep These all appear to be reasonable variations that readers might be looking for. I would have made it a single list, without the "Hollywood, Los Angeles, California" entry (since its historic district is already listed), but WP:DINC. edit to add: my !vote is regarding the usefulness of the page; I agree with the move/rename suggestions made in this discussion.

• Delete per nom, or Move to Hollywood District (disambiguation). Does not meet the standards for a dab page at MOS:DAB as all WP:PTMs, and is not useful with only 2 views per day,[1] most of whom want the Portland article. But if not deleted, at the least should be moved to Hollywood District (disambiguation) so that Hollywood District (Portland, Oregon) can be moved back to this title as the only topic with an article on WP that uses this precise name. Note that Hollywood District (Portland, Oregon) averages 19 views per day. Station1 (talk) 20:29, 27 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep and/or Move per above. Useful as several of the entries could reasonable be shortened to Hollywood District by someone searching. Move to Hollywood District (disambiguation), with a hatnote at the Portland article, is also reasonable. MB 03:30, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep the disambiguation page - seems clear that almost all of the disambiguation pages listed are reasonable. I don't mind if we make the Portland one the main article. SportingFlyer T·C 16:39, 29 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep "Hollywood District" in Los Angeles is a well documented area, of long standing. See, just for example, WPA Land use survey maps for the City of Los Angeles (1933) "...Hollywood District to Boyle Heights District; Topanga Canyon to Hollywood District; ..." --Bejnar (talk) 01:32, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Bejnar If I've understood correctly, that source indicates that the term exists outside of Wikipedia, whereas we only disambiguate terms used inside WP. If it's important enough, it should be incorporated in the relevant article and we can (only) then list it on the dab per WP:MOSDAB / WP:DABMENTION. Widefox; talk 01:13, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect (and merge 1 entry, possibly putting the rest in the See also) to Hollywood (disambiguation)#United States per WP:INCDAB. Previous !voters could check INCDAB to see if that's fitting rather than deletion, keeping or moving, as the nom is correct that this dab is not needed due to one valid entry, with the arguably valid second entry failing WP:DABMENTION (per above).

  • Merged valid entries in meantime  Done Widefox; talk 18:44, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
