John Dwyer Technology Academy → John E. Dwyer Technology Academy – I attempted to move this to a title that included the "E." initial, but the move was disputed per WP:COMMONNAME. I don't believe this is a correct application of WP:COMMONNAME, noting that "John Dwyer Technology Academy" returns 962 hits on Google, whereas "John E. Dwyer Technology Academy" returns over 12,000 hits. Limiting the results to "News" links only, without the "E" initial returns zero hits; with the initial returns 128; "Dwyer Technology Academy" returns 196 (which of course will also include articles with the "John E."). Of the three name variations, "John Dwyer" seems to be the least common; most sources seem to either use the full name with initial or just "Dwyer." OhNoitsJamie Talk 23:11, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
