Oppose. No they don't. Or at least, the relevant guideline reads in part the titles of articles on people (arrived at using the principles described above) sometimes require further disambiguation (my emphasis), so we first need to establish that William Anderson rather than William Louis Anderson is the desired article title. I get 57,000 ghits[1] for the existing article title, so it seems unlikely. Andrewa (talk) 09:18, 30 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
The relevant question is whether this guy is better known as William Louis Anderson or as William Anderson. If I'm looking at a list of guys named William Anderson (as at William Anderson (disambiguation)), and I wanted to find this one, would it be more helpful to list him as "William Louis Anderson" or as "William Anderson (bishop)"?
