The result of the move request was: pages moved. Slightly unusual choice of titles, but rationale given for them is reasonable and appropriate in this instance. (closed by non-admin page mover) Steven Crossin ^{Help resolve disputes!} 16:03, 18 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

– The two Henry Brights were both teachers and both scholars, the disambiguator doesn't disambiguate. LookLook36 (talk) 16:53, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nomination and also propose alternatives Henry Bright (scholar, born 1562) and Henry Bright (scholar, born 1724) or Henry Bright (teacher, born 1562) and Henry Bright (teacher, born 1724). —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 05:50, 11 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Of the two terms, "teacher" describes them more accurately, or possibly "schoolmaster". Another possibility is Henry Bright (schoolmaster, Worcester) and Henry Bright (schoolmaster, New College School)? LookLook36 (talk) 09:28, 11 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - I agree with LookLook36, 'teacher' is what the Worcester Henry Bright is known as; but I can't say for the other. Jim Killock (talk) 21:06, 11 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support Henry Bright (schoolmaster, born 1724) and Henry Bright (schoolmaster, born 1562). The normal name for a teacher at that time. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:32, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- As the original nominator, I support the forms proposed by User:Necrothesp. Amended above. LookLook36 (talk) 15:30, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
