Emmanuel Banda

@Number 57:, I'm asking for assistance in disambiguating the "Emmanuel Banda" name in this article, as it is linking to the article of the Petauke Central Member of Parliament instead. GeographicAccountant (talk) 13:33, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@GeographicAccountant: A normal way of doing this would be to disambiguate them by their date of birth, so we'd have Emmanuel Banda (politician, born 1978) (for the Muchinga MP) and Emmanuel Banda (politician, born 1985) (Petauke Central). A possible better alternative is to rename the article on the Petauke Central MP to either Jay Jay Banda, Jay Emmanuel Banda (this is how the National Assembly refer to him) or Emmanuel Jay Banda (how he calls himself on social media) and keep the Emmanuel Banda (politician) title for the Muchinga MP. Do you have a preference? Number 5 7 15:14, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would choose the last option, where "Emmanuel Banda (politician)" links to the Muchinga MP and "Jay Emmanuel Banda" links to the Petauke Central MP. GeographicAccountant (talk) 16:17, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cool, I've moved the article and fixed the incoming links to the Jay EB one. Cheers, Number 5 7 20:29, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
