The result of the move request was: moved to George Acworth (Anglican divine), which got the most support and there was a clear consensus to move away from the current title. No prejudice against future discussion. Jenks24 (talk) 10:05, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
George Acworth (divine) → George Acworth (protestant) – LOL - very ambiguous topic clarification – GregKaye 07:00, 1 September 2015 (UTC) Relisted. Jenks24 (talk) 09:19, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
- @GregKaye:This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 08:57, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose - not ambiguous. "Divine" is a noun. sovereign°sentinel (contribs) 10:05, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
- Move to George Acworth (Anglican divine) per Anglican divine since he isn't divine. The disambiguator does not match the topic found at divine so it is a very bad disambiguator, since we are not saying this person is a divinity. Ambiguous disambiguation is a bad idea -- 70.51.202.113 (talk) 04:45, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
- Move to George Acworth (minister) or George Acworth (clergyman). While "divine" is a perfectly reasonable word it is also very old-fashioned. But George Acworth (lawyer) is probably even better, given that seems to be what he was predominantly known for. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:42, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
- Support , (Anglican divine), or (Anglican advocate/lawyer) or similar, present title may be ecclesiastically correct but is very misleading to a layperson.Pincrete (talk) 20:15, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
- ps is this necessary? Since there are only two 'George Acworth's and 'about … see' would redirect effectively.Pincrete (talk) 20:23, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
- Comment there are seven articles at similarly disambiguated titles at Category:English chaplains. I would like to request that similar moves might apply to:
- John Aglionby (divine) →
- Thomas Archer (divine) →
- Henry Bagshaw (divine) →
- William Ford (divine) →
- Richard Gardiner (divine) →
- John Groome (divine) →
- Arthur Young (divine) →
- I support the format as George Acworth (Anglican divine). As noted by the IP contributing editor above, the person is not divine although 'e may be associated with being divine by Anglicans. GregKaye 21:10, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
