May have passed away in 1987[edit]

I found a James E. O'Neill (1929-1987) in the LC authority file who was National Archives asst. archivist for presidential libraries; could be the same person; I will do more research.--FeanorStar7 (talk) 01:08, 23 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the move request was: moved to James E. O'Neill. Favonian (talk) 10:36, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

James O'Neill (archivist) → James E. O'Neill (archivist) – My father, who did pass away in 1987, always used his middle initial professionally and should be listed as James E. O'Neill here. Mjoneill (talk) 09:23, 23 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. We can drop the disambiguator and make it James E. O'Neill, since that lemma is not being used. We should use disambiguators only when natural disambiguation is "not possible", according to WP:PRECISION. Kauffner (talk) 10:06, 23 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support plain James E. O'Neill (as Kauffner says, no disambiguation is required), seeing as that's what the New York Times called him in his obituary. Jenks24 (talk) 08:31, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
