Richard A. Andersen → Richard A. Andersen (neuroscientist) – I would like to move this page to Richard A. Andersen (neuroscientist) to avoid confusion with the similarly named page Richard A. Andersen (chemist). There is no clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC; both are notable and share the same first and last name, and middle initial. Aherthabey talk 21:07, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support; for the record, Richard A. Anderson exists and Richard Anderson (basketball) also has a middle initial "A.", so there should be a disambiguation page at this title with the others listed as a "See also" due to the likelihood of spelling confusion. BD2412 T 00:00, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support and yes as BD says, add the others to the dab page. Dicklyon (talk) 03:11, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support per nomination, BD2412 and Dicklyon. No primary topic for Richard A. Andersen (neuroscientist), for Richard A. Andersen (chemist) or for Richard Andersen, which currently redirects to the neuroscientist. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 04:35, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment There is a disambiguation page for Richard Anderson (disambiguation) to which I've added the two Richard A. Andersen's. Is this sufficient, or would best practice be to create a separate DAB page Richard Andersen (disambiguation)? —Aherthabeytalk 05:44, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- I just created the Richard Andersen disambiguation page which lists Richard A. Andersen (chemist) as well as Richard A. Andersen (neuroscientist). When this RM closes, Richard A. Andersen can become a redirect to that page's main title header, Richard Andersen. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 22:42, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
