• Redirect to The World's Greatest Athlete and tag as {{R from miscapitalisation}}. I see no evidence that the title is in common usage for Olympic decathlon/heptathlon champions and "The best, or most successful, living sportsperson" is totally subjective WP:OR. As such, the only encyclopedic thing a user would be searching for would be the film. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:54, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to The World's Greatest Athlete: Seems like an obvious unnecessary disambiguation page. Being the reigning Olympic decathlon or Olympic heptathlon champion does not make one the world's greatest athlete. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:14, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to The World's Greatest Athlete: this disambiguation page does not constitute original research. Some basic research (or even reading the linked pages) will reveal that (see [1],[2],[3][4]). That said, the hatnote on the film page is sufficient to provide the effective links because it's unlikely that this target will be internally linked from articles.

• Redirect. I make this suggestion after much research and reflection upon all available options. The best outcome would be to redirect to the page The World's Greatest Athlete as a suitable target. Shawn Teller (talk) 02:58, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
