Requested move 14 August 2023 edit

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. Specifically:

Participants agreed with the underlying principle behind the moves, but found the inclusion of "Bangladeshi" in the original proposal to be excessive WP:PRECISION; consequently, the above DABs achieved consensus as a compromise.

Consensus that these articles are likely duplicate articles about a single underlying subject. (closed by non-admin page mover) ModernDayTrilobite (talkcontribs) 14:45, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply


– Disambiguation and avoiding uppercase position description. Both of the Taliban articles say they are about a former Taliban Minister of the Interior of Afghanistan, but the list of such ministers says there is only one with a similar name, so I suspect they are duplicate articles about the same person. Maybe the barrister article should stay where it is, but I think it is worth noticing that he fits the definition of a politician, having held a high position in a political party. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 07:56, 14 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Good suggestions; I have no objection to those refinements. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 17:04, 15 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

– The previous move request failed to clear the incomplete disambiguation issues that seem to inevitably plague Arabic name articles, as Abdur Razzaq (Faridpur politician) is also from the Awami League. The barrister article was boldly moved back claiming "The person in question is no longer affiliated with Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami", which may or may not be true but in any case (barrister) is incomplete disambiguation since "barrister" just means lawyer Abdur Razzaq (Awami League politician) among others were also lawyers. "Jamaat-e-Islami" may still be correct but it's probably best to respect the principle behind that move and disambiguate the second politician by year of birth to match the first one. Finally, the primary topic status of the artist Abdur Razzaque relative to the many other people with this name is dubious. * Pppery * it has begun... 16:32, 24 March 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Bensci54 (talk) 17:06, 1 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Relisting comment: I would like to see more discussion on whether politician or lawyer is more correct for the second proposed move. Bensci54 (talk) 17:06, 1 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
On that issue I have no opinion. If this goes another seven days with no comments then close as moved to (lawyer) since the only person who expressed an opinion preferred it. * Pppery * it has begun... 17:22, 1 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
