  • He would easily pass WP:GNG though. Playing and captaining Wellington and the Maoris, director of Rugby New Zealand and chairman of the New Zealand Maori Rugby Board are going to get him some mentions in newspapers. AIRcorn (talk) 23:15, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment If it makes a difference it was originally disambiguated as (politician) then changed to (New Zealand politician) and then (New Zealand) before I changed it to (rugby union). AIRcorn (talk) 02:36, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No consensus?

[edit]

Is there really no consensus. Only one person objected to the move...Mattlore (talk) 04:15, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Seems silly, doesn't it? The disambiguator should not be any more precise than necessary. How about Paul Quinn (politician)? Kauffner (talk) 14:23, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
There already is a politician named Paul Quinn. AIRcorn (talk) 21:42, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Paul Quinn (rugby union)Paul Quinn (New Zealand politician) — I thought I would reopen the discussion on this. Quinn is notable as a politician by the fact that he was an MP. As Mattlore explained above, he was not notable as a rugby union player. As AIRcorn pointed out, he may well have achieved notability as an administrator for rugby union. I would argue that he is much more notable as a politician than his rugby union involvement. As such, the disambiguator should reflect that. As there is a Missouri politician already, the country disambiguator will have to be included. I will notify all those contributors who commented on the previous move request.

Discussion

It would be nice to have some more information about him being a MP in the article. AIRcorn (talk) 22:08, 20 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Agree completely that this section needs to be expanded. Mattlore (talk) 04:28, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That section has now been expanded somewhat, but this is irrelevant to the disambiguation issue. Schwede66 10:42, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
