Pat Ahern[edit]

People are disambiguated on Wikipedia by general occupation, not by one specific organization that they happen to have been associated with — so "Siamsa Tire" is an entirely inappropriate disambiguator. I'm not wedded to "director", so it can be moved to another title if there's another occupational term that's a better fit, but whatever title is used it has to be a general occupational term for the type of work he does, and not the name of one specific organization he happens to have been involved in. Bearcat (talk) 16:10, 18 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much for the ultra-quick response. What you say makes total sense. Would 'traditional Irish musician' fit? If so, could you ever change it for me? Many thanks Scríobhaí (talk) 16:18, 18 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Our rule is to always go with the simplest possible title, so we don't make a disambiguator any longer or more prolix than the bare minimum that's required to give him a unique page title. So just "musician" would be enough — the only reason for the disambiguator to be any longer than just the word "musician" alone would be if there were other musicians named Pat Ahern who thus needed even more detail (like nationality or genre) to distinguish them.
