Article name[edit]

Clearly wrong at the moment. The article has been moved twice in quick succession, once by an editor who seems to be the subject of it. The subject clearly seems to be commonly known as Peter Murray and is a "prolific writer" therefore Peter Murray (architectural journalist) is most suitable, per WP:COMMONNAME. I've raised this at Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests. Sionk (talk) 18:44, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Peter Gerald Stewart Murray → Peter Murray (architectural journalist) – Page seems to have suffered two inappropriate page name moves in a short period by a new editor who seems to also be the subject of the article. It needs to be reverted to the original title. – Sionk (talk) 18:41, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). EdJohnston (talk) 03:11, 9 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Due to WP:PRECISE we prefer the shortest disambiguator that works. Peter Murray (journalist) is available, assuming that the article justifies that description. EdJohnston (talk) 03:11, 9 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - seems he's not notable as a journalist per se : Peter Murray (architect) or Peter Murray (architectural writer) would be better. In ictu oculi (talk) 07:56, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I din't ask for the article to be renamed, I asked for the two quick page moves to be reverted. However, if this is the way other editors wish to deal with it I agree Peter Murray (architectural writer) sounds better than the original. Sionk (talk) 18:15, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support Peter Murray (architect).--Cúchullain ^t/c 18:22, 16 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- There's no evidence he's a qualified architect, or known as an architect. Sionk (talk) 19:09, 16 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
