[edit] Cobbolds

Thomas Clement Cobbold ought to be given his full name, to distinguish from Thomas Cobbold who is linked from the article on Cliff Brewery as founding it in 1723. I had a go at sorting it out but got muddled: I think we need to do a WP:RM to sort out. Similarly, the two John Cobbolds should be identified by full names, rather than dates: WP:NAMC explicitly says "Years of birth and death should not be used in a page title to distinguish between people of the same name.". We're lucky to have middle names for those 2! PamD (talk) 21:03, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Have picked up all the pieces, I think, and left a request on the WP:RM to have Thomas Clement Cobbold article renamed as such. (I think that if I hadn't started to edit the redirect I could have just done the move, but with a redirect with a non-zero edit history it can't just be done simply). —Preceding unsigned comment added by PamD (talk • contribs) 23:32, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
