Requested move

Francis Burdett, 5th BaronetSir Francis Burdett, 5th Baronet – This was listed at Wikipedia:Requested moves#Uncontroversial proposals, but it clearly is not uncontroversial, so I'm setting up a full move request. -GTBacchus(talk) 22:15, 8 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

  • I support a move to Francis Burdett, and if that isn't possible, I tacitly support a move to Sir Francis Burdett, 5th Baronet, per Mackensen. This man's notability doesn't lie solely or even primarily in his title, and therefore, as with Robert Peel, his page should exist at his best-known name until there is a need for disambiguation. -- Thesocialistesq/M.Lesocialiste 20:45, 9 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose; but Support move to Francis Burdett. I agree with Mackensen and Lesocialiste. WP:NC (names and titles) says "For the article title, this format should only be used when disambiguation is necessary; otherwise, the article on [Sir John Smith, 2nd baronet] should be located at John Smith." The convention for peers makes sense as pre-emptive disambiguation, because it is likely that we are going to write an article on every peer in the Complete Peerage; most of them are notable aside from their title. I oppose potting the Complete Baronetage for the opposite reason. We don't need articles on all the baronets in the United Kingdom, of whatever type.
