Georg Klein → Georg Klein (composer) – There are several people named Georg Klein. The others by that name each have a page called "Georg Klein" followed by their profession. I suggest the same pattern is followed for this person, and that the page should be linked to from the disambiguation page. — Nordicblonde (talk • contribs) 21:52, 20 December 2012 (UTC)‎[reply]

Oppose move There are several articles already on people named George Klein, but I can't see any articles on Georg Klein other than this one. If you know of other notable people named Georg Klein, then please write articles about them. Until then, there's no need to WP:Disambiguate this one. Thanks, Altered Walter (talk) 08:52, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support - This is a bit of an odd case since there is another REDIRECT Georg Klein (biologist), although article title follows his English books which have "George" on the cover, many 3rd party print sources have him as "Georg" - perhaps the only major living case of a foreign author with a deliberate "English" name? Also German Wikipedia has 7x de:Georg Klein several of whom turn up in English books as frequently as the composer see update below In ictu oculi (talk) 15:42, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support - George Klein (biologist) often signs as Georg Klein. He is known as de:Georg Klein (Biologe) on the German Wikipedia. On the whole he is probably at least as well known as Georg Klein the composer. There is enough potential for confusion that I recommend going ahead with this proposed move.

Update - turns out Georg Klein (German writer) is notable enough for an en.wp article, so created, and Georg Klein (disambiguation) created. Doesn't mean that the composer isn't still WP:primary, but personally doesn't look like primary. In ictu oculi (talk) 01:12, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
