Latest comment: 2 years ago6 comments5 people in discussion

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: move the page to Lawrence Clarke (hurdler) at this time, per the discussion below. Dekimasuよ! 05:00, 5 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Sir Lawrence Clarke, 7th Baronet → Lawrence Clarke (athlete) – He is primarily known for being an athlete, and as such his WP:COMMONNAME is Lawrence Clarke, not Sir Lawrence Clarke, 7th Baronet. This article was unilaterally moved in 2020, but I believe that the previous name was much more sensible, as it's the common way to disambiguate sportspeople. Whereas disambiguating an Olympic sportsperson by a peerage name that isn't used in most of the sources in the article seems incorrect to me.

Support Lawrence Clarke (hurdler). Generally we try to avoid "athlete" unless the individual has competed in different events. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:51, 24 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
Relisted due to the suggestion to change the disambiguator to "(hurdler)". — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 18:35, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
Comment (hurdler) is fine by me. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:21, 30 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
