Steven Roberts (British Army soldier) → Steven Mark Roberts – Per WP:NATURALDIS. Although there may be an argument that the middle name was not part of his WP:COMMONNAME, military personnel who are not public figures are indicated by the name form depicted in official pronouncements and military databases, such as BRITISH ARMED FORCES THE BEST, which lists him as Steven Mark Roberts, as does Iraq/Afghanistan War Heroes. There would be also no need for the qualifier "(British Army soldier)". Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 09:33, 3 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Oppose. We do no use full names for disambiguation unless they are commonly used. See WP:MIDDLENAME. Most sources (and he is mentioned in many news articles) do not use his middle name. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:11, 7 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
