Incorrect redirect

edit

James L. Watson the American Sinologist and anthropologist redirects to James Lopez Watson the judge. This is probably a mistake. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.40.139.164 (talk) 10:47, 2 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Unless I'm mistaken, he's already there, alphabetized between James Craig Watson and James Eli Watson. Princess Lirin (talk) 21:57, 30 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

James WatsonJames Watson (disambiguation)

I wish to move James Watson, currently a dab page, to James Watson (disambiguation), and to then redirect James Watson to James D. Watson as the primary topic. (I would have been inclined to be bold and moved it myself, but I cannot b/c the explicit dab page already exists.)

I don't think it's particularly controversial to suggest that the scientist who discovered DNA, a household name, is the clear primary topic. Woodshed (talk) 10:31, 22 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
