– As there are many notable people named Richard Dawson, descriptive disambiguators will be more helpful to readers than vital dates alone. This move would be in line with the recommendations provided by WP:NCPDAB. (I'm also open to other DAB permutations that share this general format.)

I agree. Bduke (talk) 08:40, 21 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Comment I don't believe that the format calls for the date of death in the case of the first two. So Richard Dawson (Irish politician, born 1855) and Richard Dawson (Irish politician, born 1762). 162 etc. (talk) 16:52, 21 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
This option works for me as well. ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 18:08, 27 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
