POB[edit]

The lead says he was born in DC, the infobox in Philly. Which is correct? — Rlevse • Talk • 21:11, 17 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 24 March 2019[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Moved. (non-admin closure) – Ammarpad (talk) 07:03, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

– I am dubious about there being a primary topic for this name, given the number of people sharing it. Current occupant of this title gets around 2/3 of the page views, which is not overwhelming. bd2412 T 00:03, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Personally I think 2/3 of everything is actually pretty impressive and I might support a declaration of primary topic on that basis when combined with other factors, such as long-term significance (this applies more for articles on common nouns). But my general policy for multiple relatively obscure people sharing the same name is when in doubt, disambiguate. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 08:12, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support more because "Frank Coleman was" test produces no one. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:26, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A different Frank Coleman[edit]

I think Frank Coleman (counselor) (1912 – 2008) has been mixed up with a different Frank Coleman (1890 – 1967) over the history of this article. Both were prominent African American educators which may have contributed to the confusion. Looks like Frank Coleman (counselor) lived and worked in Philadelphia while the other — call him Frank Coleman (professor), maybe? — lived and worked in D.C. This person was in the Omega Psi Phi fraternity but didn't found it. I'm going to remove the reference to founding Omega Psi Phi from this article since that was Frank Coleman (professor). I'll fix his education, currently linking to Howard University, too. Enby (talk) 21:41, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
