The result of the proposal was move the page to Vince Macaulay, per the discussion below. Actually, the article was originally at this title, and was moved by cut-and-paste. I have merged the edit histories. Dekimasuよ! 01:08, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

[edit]
Any additional comments:

In all such cases, continue to apply the general rule that Wikipedia uses the form of the name that is most common for referring to the person in question

In my reading, what the subject wants to be called is less important than what he is commonly called. SeveroTC 00:50, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Additionally, I made a typo in the reasoning, which made my argument of commonest name not make sense. I've corrected it to be "Google says "Vince Macaulay" -razaq=661, "Vince Macaulay-Razaq"=99". Sorry for any confusion on that. SeveroTC 00:56, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
