Thomas Crowther (judge) → Thomas Crowther (lawyer) – Subject is no longer is a judge. Please see the text and footnote 3 which is official confirmation of his resignation KodakPaxton (talk) 16:41, 11 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose. Irrespective of the subject's later activities, their notability is derived from their time as a judge. We have, by way of comparison, lots of articles on long-retired athletes disambiguated by the sport or even the position they once played. In fact, we have lots of articles on long-retired (or long-dead) judges with the same disambiguator. bd2412 T 17:09, 11 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose per WP:DEFUNCTS and bd2412. When someone dies, we wouldn't rename the article about them to "Joe Smith (corpse)". —BarrelProof (talk) 18:01, 11 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose as above. Being a judge is the only reason he has an article. Silly proposal, I'm afraid. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:04, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose for all above reasons Psalms79;6-7 (talk) 15:30, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
