Walter McCall Hoover, Jr. → Walter Hoover – Should be moved back per WP:PRECISE, WP:CONCISE, and WP:COMMONNAME. The Olympedia external link is presently misleading, as their entry is named Walter Hoover, not Walter McCall Hoover, Jr. The full name can be in bold in the intro, which I improved. Please debate before moving! gidonb (talk) 23:11, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Walter Hoover is the stable title. Such undiscussed moves can be uncontroversially reverted at WP:RMT. 162 etc. (talk) 23:38, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

162 etc.: thanks, I tried to move but this is blocked by an edit history. You are very welcome to move, if you obtained the rights, and to close the debate. Anyone is. I am here since 2003 and never asked for any status, DYK, or anything of sorts. What came my way, came my way. gidonb (talk) 00:06, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
