Requested move[edit]

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was procedural close. While I would never do this just because of an improperly formatted multi-move, the bifurcated discussion here and at Talk:John Brent is going to make it very difficult to come to a consensus. The status quo of the author as the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC stands by default, with no prejudice against a new multimove request. --BDD (talk) 00:45, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

John Brent (disambiguation) → John Brent – I created this article unknowingly against the disambiguation style guide. It shouldn't contain the parenthetical, right? MyNameIsJason (talk) 23:52, 12 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment You are wrong. Why wouldn't it contain the parenthetical? A large number of disambiguation pages contain parenthetical "(disambiguation)". -- 70.50.148.122 (talk) 00:40, 13 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:MALPLACED. --BDD (talk) 00:45, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment there is a related requested move at talk:John Brent, which this move depends on, therefore this is a malformatted multimove, and requires fixing. -- 70.50.148.122 (talk) 00:40, 13 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. No, it's fine as it is. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:35, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
