The result of the move request was: moved. Unopposed request. Number 5 7 22:29, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Stephenson Percy Smith → Percy Smith (ethnologist) – He was known as Percy Smith, as his biography states. He did, however, author quite a few books, and is frequently quoted. It may just be that his common name has shifted from what he was know as, to his full name. I contend that Percy Smith is still the common name, and hence propose this move. As it's not clear-cut, I put this up for discussion. When disambiguation is first proposed, there are often editors coming along claiming concepts like 'natural disambiguation' as their preference for using a full name over introducing parentheses; could those editors please read Wikipedia:Naming conventions (people) before they comment here?
