Samuel Poulin (ice hockey) → Sam Poulin (ice hockey) – per WP:COMMONNAME [1] Joeykai (talk) 06:07, 10 November 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 04:32, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom.--Ortizesp (talk) 18:45, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Move to Sam Poulin per WP:NATURAL. The politician goes by Samuel, not Sam. Diminutives of names can disambiguate per WP:SMALLDETAILS. cookie monster 755 08:40, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Question I'm neutral to the move, but a quick look suggests both "Samuel" and "Sam" are used rather interchangeably for him in sources. Is there definite proof that one is used more than the other at this time? Kaiser matias (talk) 17:56, 12 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
