Philip Honywood (British Army officer, died 1752) → Sir Philip Honywood – Wikipedia:Naming conventions (royalty and nobility)#British nobility, §4.Titles of knighthood such as Sir and Dame are not normally included in the article title[…] However, Sir may be used in article titles as a disambiguator when a name is ambiguous and one of those who used it was knighted. WP:Article titles#Disambiguation is clear that natural disambiguation is preferable to parenthetical disambiguation. Opera hat (talk) 02:09, 7 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Closing comment: I wrangled over this one. It reverses and overwrites

 15:55, 6 January 2020‎ Necrothesp talk contribs block‎  110 bytes +110‎  Necrothesp moved page Sir Philip Honywood to Philip Honywood (British Army officer, died 1752) over redirect: usual

but in the light of no participation here and a valid rationale for the move as opposed to a scanty edit summary usual for the move being reversed, I think we can move and move on. Andrewa (talk) 02:38, 14 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
