The result of the move request was: moved. At least to get off "Jr.", which is completely incorrect in the UK, where Faber lived. (closed by non-admin page mover)Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 04:17, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]


John Faber Jr.John Faber the Younger – Most sources refer to the Fabers as 'the elder' and 'the younger', notably the British Museum and the Met among many regional art museums. The National Portrait Gallery seems to be the outlier in calling him John Faber Jr, but in any case calling him Faber 'Jr.' (with period) goes against British English conventions and I propose that we move this page to a title used by the vast majority of sources in the art world. I would move it myself, but 'John Faber the Younger' is already a redirect page. CoatGuy2 (talk) 19:03, 10 June 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. >>> Extorc.talk 06:08, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
