Roger Llewelyn Davies → Roger Davies (astrophysicist) — Easier to find under this name. I tried to create a new page with this heading but WP pointed out the duplication and asked me to do it this way. Thanks for your help. RoyalAstronomicalSociety (talk) 08:08, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - WP:PRECISION, most people will search for Roger Davies and the dab will point here. --ZhongHan (Email) 08:21, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: My point was that when people search for Roger Davies, they will need to go to the disambiguation page to find the right person. At present, "Roger Davies (astrophysicist)" is not one of the offered choices. If you can ensure that "Roger Davies (astrophysicist)" pops up as one of the alternatives, then problem solved. Thanks.

Comment - I have edited Roger Davies (astrophysicist) to redirect to this article. Whether or not it is a plausible redirect remains to be discussed. --ZhongHan (Email) 09:14, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
