Disambiguation page for Paula Byrne?

Hi everyone, I only edit here once in a blue moon and so I don't know the process for this, but I suggest a disambiguation page for Paula Byrne. The one with the current article is an author, but there is another one that is a jazz singer, see http://www.paulabyrnemusic.com/pbbio.html At first I thought that they were the same person, but they are not.

Biography of Barbara Pym

The last paragraph claims that the biography 'revealed many surprising aspects of the life of the English novelist, including a brief love affair with a Nazi SS officer'. In fact the affair was covered in A Very Private Eye, ed. Hazel Holt and Hilary Pym (1984), and A Lot to Ask by Hazel Holt (1990), and so would only surprise someone who knew nothing of Barbara Pym. Perhaps a better example of a revelation could be given, but I'm not sure the claim is justified. Snugglepuss (talk) 14:31, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It sounds like you're knowledgeable about this – more than me, at least! Your reasoning is sound and the section feels a bit unsubstantiated, so chopping it out is probably a good idea. Brammers (talk/c) 00:28, 5 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
