– Every individual listed on the disambiguation page has some further means of disambiguation, be it the Strathmore earldom or they went by a middle name, except for this one. The parenthetical disambiguation does not seem necessary here. Walco1 (talk) 13:46, 9 August 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Waqar💬 17:23, 16 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Oppose per Celia Homeford. There are four men listed upon the Michael Bowes-Lyon disambiguation page, with no indication that the subject of this rather brief entry has retained historical renown to such a degree that it dwarfs the combined notability of the remaining three men. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 18:39, 16 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
