Charles R. BreyerCharles Breyer (judge) – Although the first nominator withdrew the initial discussion when it was pointed out that their proposed new title already exists as a disambiguation page, that actually wasn't the correct response to the situation. Our standard naming convention for people is that occupation is the first resort when disambiguation is necessary, not hunting down obscure and rarely used middle initials — so if his COMMONNAME in reliable sources is "Charles Breyer" rather than "Charles R. Breyer", then the page should still be moved to "Charles Breyer (judge)" rather than being left at "Charles R. Breyer". Bearcat (talk) 15:39, 18 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
