Alexander Hamilton Stephens (sculpture)Statue of Alexander H. Stephens – Per WP:VAMOS, which says, "For portrait sculptures of individuals in public places the forms "Statue of Fred Foo", "Equestrian statue of Fred Foo" or "Bust of Fred Foo" are recommended, unless a form such as "Fred Foo Memorial" or "Monument to Fred Foo" is the WP:COMMONNAME. If further disambiguation is needed, because there is more than one sculpture of the same person with an article, then disambiguation by location rather than the sculptor is usually better. This may be done as either "Statue of Fred Foo (Chicago)" (typically preferred for North America) or "Statue of Fred Foo, Glasgow" (typically preferred elsewhere)." --Another Believer (Talk) 12:16, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support (see my comment at Talk:Charles Carroll (Brooks)#Requested move 10 June 2021). Will not comment on any more, but why not just move all of the statuary hall pages at once non-controversially (but keep the first mention italicized real names) instead of doing RM's one-by-one. With these name changes the main work seems making sure that they're the only statues dedicated to the individuals. Randy Kryn (talk) 12:59, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
