This is a contested technical request (permalink). GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 17:47, 8 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
Maybe, but there's no real need to move to article to new title as the current ones seem stable and (presumably) easy to find. Sakura CarteletTalk 04:10, 8 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Sakura Cartelet: Is this view rooted in any of the five WP:CRITERIA? 207.161.86.162 (talk) 06:39, 8 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
The same page says that the criteria are goals and not rules (my emphasis added). Which one of the criteria do you feel isn't being met and how much better would it be with the new name? Sakura CarteletTalk 14:13, 8 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
I don't understand why this is being contested. The relevant guideline is WP:NCPDAB (naming conventions for people including a disambiguating tag/parenthesis), which says "If possible, limit the tag to a single, recognizable and highly applicable term."
Clearly, criterion 4, "Conciseness – The title is no longer than necessary to identify the article's subject and distinguish it from other subjects", applies, and arguably criteria 5 (consistency).
Also, since both subject's studied psychology not sociology, and there are two types of social psychology: social psychology, the only sub-field of psychology, and social psychology (sociology),a sub-field of sociology, the proposed titles are arguably less ambiguous as well as more concise, so criterion 3 (precision) also applies.

Well I guess in that case, I can't think of any other reasons to oppose the move any more so am withdrawing my objections. Sakura CarteletTalk 17:25, 8 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
