Herbert Arthur Hodges → H. A. Hodges – Was moved due to suspected WP:COMMONNAME; but the subject almost always published with first initials + surname instead of full name —Caorongjin 💬 08:42, 1 December 2022 (UTC) This is a contested technical request (permalink). —Caorongjin 💬 08:46, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

I created the article as "H. A. Hodges" because like his colleague T. S. Eliot he worked and published under this name.

Another user changed the article name to his full name. This seems wrong.

  I'm a relative beginner here. Do I need to do anything at this point? Mrmarbach (talk) 10:42, 4 December 2022 (UTC)

  Good question! No, you've done everything you need to do. Andrewa (talk) 08:59, 8 December 2022 (UTC)
