This is incorrectly linked to from the List of Continental Army regiments as of 1775. That, or this page is wrong. Please, someone correct this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.68.112.171 (talk) 14:37, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

– There are articles for six men and one WP:DABMENTION listed upon the John Mansfield (disambiguation) page, with no indication that the renown of this 19th-century personality, who served as Civil War officer and later as lieutenant governor, has remained at such high historical level that it dwarfs the combined prominence of all the remaining men. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 01:01, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Although the American politician does have more monthly pageviews than the sum of all other people named John Mansfield, his pageviews are also buoyed by his holding the primary title. Furthermore, I share the nominator's skepticism that the American politician holds a decisive lead in significance. Thus, I believe this to be a WP:NOPRIMARY situation.
