Moving page to Paul Irwin Forster

[edit]

I am proposing to move this page to one that uses his full name with both given names. My reasons are:

  • For consistency with IPNI
    • He is listed there as Forster, Paul Irwin
    • His standard author abbreviation (P.I.Forster) uses both initials.
  • For consistency within this project
  • For consistency elsewhere
  • Finally, for clarity. A biographical article titled with one (as opposed to two) given name plus a surname has a much higher probability of needing a disambiguation page at some point in the future

I'm aware that the Wikidata item associated with him does not use the second given name. That needs to change as well.  Junglenut |Talk  11:03, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
