James Dooley (judge) → James Dooley (Rhode Island politician) – Insufficient disambiguation, as James A. Dooley is also a judge; also, the subject was only a judge for a short period, even though the title stuck with them as a nickname. BD2412 T 16:03, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Support per nom. As another option, a title such as "James Dooley (sports team owner)" or similar could work, but at present I think (Rhode Island politician) is the most WP:NATURAL disambiguation. ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 17:28, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Support A has 7 views compared with only 6[[1]] for this one. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:05, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Support per nomination, ModernDayTrilobite and Crouch, Swale. Incomplete disambiguation, indeed. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 02:24, 29 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
