It seems to me, that the city article, should be under
Vladimir with "otheruses" template on top, which will bring up a
Vladimir (disambiguation) with all the other meanings. When someone enter
Vladimir, the city is a more likely aim (I think), than the article about the name
Vladimir name,
St. Vladimir or other meanings. We have a convention to do it as I am proposing in such cases, while I may be wrong in my assumption that the city is by far the most likely aim of the
Vladimir search. With the mess with several articles +DABs we might have to go through a
WP:RM vote, but I am willing to submit a proposal, should we agree on it in principle "in the family". Regards, --

Since the main purpose of the DAB articles is to direct the reader elsewhere, I think it is more correct to have the encyclopedic material (like name etymology) at a separate article
Vladimir (name), where I moved it back. I moved the newest version, which I edited somewhat. Hope others agree with this option. --

I would guess whoever listed these people just added most famous Vladimirs. Vovochka would be a good addition; as for removals, if you feel a cleanup is in order, dive right in, although I would guess people who would land on this page would most likely be those who can easily remember Mayakovsky's, Putin's, or Nabokov's first name, but forget their last names (or not know the spelling). If anyone objects, I am sure they will make themselves heard. I myself would definitely remove Didi. I do not feel strongly about keeping/removing others—either way is probably fine (I, however, do not think the list is too long). In any case, this is hardly a high-traffic page.—

The DAB should serve to disambiguate between people mostly known as simply Vladimirs. These usually apply to kings, tsars, other rulers and saints. I would just leave those here and add Vovochka (currently a redirect to
Russian joke I just created. I will wait a little bit for objections before striking down several names from this list. --
