House Peters Sr. → House Peters – per WP:COMMONNAME. In the past, English Wikipedia has had a number of uniquely-named father-son disambiguation pages, such as Ross Bagdasarian, Noah Beery, Perry Botkin, Lon Chaney or Douglas Fairbanks in which the father was listed as "Sr." and the son as "Jr." However, none of the fathers used "Sr." as part of his common name, while the sons were usually or always referenced as "Jr." All of the above dab pages have now been merged into each respective father's article and each article's header has been shorn of the generational suffix "Sr.", with the addition of a hatnote stating, For his son, see House Peters Jr., or whichever name is appropriate for each individual instance. In the case at hand, "House Peters" already redirects to House Peters Sr. who had been a film star and has a star on Hollywood Walk of Fame, while his son, House Peters Jr., was a supporting player and character actor. The hatnote atop House Peters would suffice for House Peters Jr. and obviate the extra step of going through the dab page. — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 17:05, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
