@TDKR Chicago 101: Shouldn't we be matching enwiki at the "(virologist)" title with a DAB page here? Kind regards, --IWI (talk) 10:57, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@ImprovedWikiImprovment: I thought so too but there wasn't any other Michael Houghton in this wiki so the need for a specific title of Michael Houghton I felt was not needed here. At English Wiki there are two: Michael Houghton (virologist) and Michael Houghton (bishop), the latter not having any languages so I felt that the Nobel Prize-winning Michael Houghton (virologist) article would merit a non-specific article name. --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 10:59, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@TDKR Chicago 101: That seems fair, I just always think it's best to match enwiki where possible. This avoids any confusion if the bishop article is created in the future. --IWI (talk) 11:03, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@ImprovedWikiImprovment: Of course, however with the recent news of Houghton winning the Nobel Prize, I'm sure discussions at English Wikipedia to moving the article name to just Michael Houghton will be inevitable. --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 11:06, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@TDKR Chicago 101: Yeah I agree he is the primary topic. I think he should stay at this title. Always good to talk these things through :) --IWI (talk) 11:08, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@ImprovedWikiImprovment: Of course! It's always good to talk about this to see each other's perspectives. --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 11:09, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
