Split

Linking to individuals, and having individual data at Wikidata is complicated by a shared page. I would recommend that this page be split into components, or at least sustainable components. — billinghurst sDrewth 06:44, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I can see your point. On the other hand, not all of the Randles have sufficient information to make separate articles, while this article is coherent. Given the length of time the tag has been in place, I am going to remove the tag. If you are certain that a split is needed then I am happy to set up an RfC.

I agree with keeping the article as it is. One advantage of this is that it is often impossible to determine which RH was responsible for which work, making linking to separate articles impossible. A link to this combined article is often the only practical option. --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 08:49, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
