William "Bill" Hanley → Bill Hanley (pioneer) – William "Bill" Hanley is ambiguous, and the article notes the subject was commonly known as Bill, so a move to Bill Hanley with a disambiguator is appropriate. After the move, William "Bill" Hanley should be redirected to William Hanley (disambiguation) and incoming links fixed (which I'm happy to do if the closer pings me).

Support moving the article to Bill Hanley (rancher), as this is what is listed as his occupation. I don't think "pioneer" is what he did, I think it's being used as a way to describe him being an early rancher. I would suggest if possible deleting William "Bill" Hanley and fixing all links as appropriate rather than keeping as a redirect. I don't think having quotation marks in an article title of this nature is particularly ideal and doesn't serve any long-term benefit. Bungle ^{(talk • contribs)} 19:18, 6 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom, happy with Bill Hanley (rancher) as well.--Ortizesp (talk) 23:00, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support Bill Hanley (rancher). I don't think someone born in 1861 could really be described as a pioneer. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:27, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
