Francis Walsh (bishop) → Francis Walsh – Until today, Francis Walsh pointed to Frank Walsh, who seems to go by that given name, not Francis. There was one link to Francis Walsh, and that was to a third man (an Irish priest; now linked to Francis Walsh (priest)). Now this man is the sole topic for Francis Walsh, and should be moved accordingly. D B D 22:22, 12 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Don't see why this would be controversial, an admin should really just do it. I'll CSD G6 it. bou·le·var·dier (talk) 06:34, 13 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Francis Walsh should be the disambiguation page not Frank Walsh (disambiguation), Frank Walsh should be a redirect to Francis Walsh as an alternative usage and then the Francis/Frank Walsh articles should be at their full name ie Francis Raymond Walsh instead of Francis Walsh(bishop), Francis Henry Walsh instead of Frank Walsh. Alternative is that Francis Walsh should be a redirect to the dab page not the Premier of SA(note:since cmt redirect changed to this article), while the premier maybe the most notable I'd doubt its meets primary topic requirments Gnan garra 11:01, 13 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

No, we don't do dab by middle names, because of WP:COMMONNAME. If any of these Franks are known as Francis Something Walsh, they will stay there. If they're known as Frank Something Walsh, they'll stay there. If we have multiple Francis Walshs or Frank Walshs, then we dab with occupation in parentheses. D B D 08:23, 14 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

OK, I'll relist on requested move. (Too many Franks to wrap my head around!) bou·le·var·dier (talk) 11:31, 13 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation page created at Francis Walsh. 184.144.163.181 (talk) 04:25, 14 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
