James Johnson (carving artist) → James Johnson (carver) – Per requested move at Talk:James Johnson (English artist). * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 15:24, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

'Carver' is a weird term, wouldn't 'sculptor' be better—blindlynx 02:05, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

He is a woodcarver, specifically and I think it should be either James Johnson (woodcarver) or James Johnson (sculptor). oncamera _{(talk page)} 07:17, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm fine with either of those —blindlynx 15:28, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As am I. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 21:41, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

On second thought I would prefer (woodcarver) to reduce confusion with James Johnson (engraver) * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 17:25, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

good point —blindlynx 20:23, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. That's what he is. "Carver" is certainly not a weird term. I'd support "woodcarver" too. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:51, 31 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
