I disimbauged the page to distinguish both the seiyu and the driver. All redirects of "Hiroshi Masuoka" before this move redirect to the race car driver. I didn't want people to get confused with the seiyu of the same name. Sjones23 22:21, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Please make sure you create an article so that this disambiguation is justified. As per WP:MOSDAB, "Disambiguation pages are solely intended to allow users to choose among several Wikipedia articles, usually when a user searches for an ambiguous term...Adding links to articles not yet written should be done with care. There is no need to brainstorm all occurrences of the page title and create redlinks to articles that are unlikely ever to be written, or likely to be removed as insufficiently notable topics." If nothing appears in due course I'll request that the move be undone, considering that even the Japanese Wikipedia only has a page on the rally driver... --DeLarge 23:05, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

I created an article on Hiroshi Masuoka (seiyū) and when I found out about the redirect of the seiyu to the rally driver, I wanted to create a Disambiguation page, even before I did the article. Now that this article has 2 articles, I will keep this disaumbigation page for good Sjones23 23:17, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

The rally driver is clearly the primary meaning (see Google results), not to mention that there are only two Hiroshi Masuokas. Therefore, the rally driver's article should be here at "Hiroshi Masuoka", with {{for}} on top for the voice actor, like this. There is no need for a disambiguation page.
