Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's policy on article titles.
*Oppose A reason that it is "simpler" is not solely a criterion listed on our naming conventions guidelines. Despite it being a "part-time", Green is more widely known for being an American football referee than his other occupation. And as per our conventions on middle names and abbreviated names, we generally only use it if it is the most common format of a name – which is not the case when referring to various media and sports articles about Green.

:According to WP:Requested moves/Closing instructions, you are supposed to evaluate the discussion at Talk:Scott Green (American football official)#Requested move "just like any other discussion on Wikipedia", keeping in mind that "the quality of an argument is more important than whether it comes from a minority or a majority."  Since all you wrote when you closed the request was "Page Not Moved" it is unclear whether you performed the evaluation mentioned in the instructions.  I could re-open the request in order to get more details on your rationale but I wanted to check with you first to better understand the reason for your decision.

replies: text: There was clearly no concensus to move this page.  Although it's not a vote, we have clearly two good agruments against and one for. The name is based on his well known role as a referee, as such it will be more easy to find for users (as the list of possible name matches shows in the search box on entry).  There's nothing of any substance in the article for his other role - indeed if one lost the refereeing data then it would be speedily deleted as not notable. I would suggest that when you have added enough data to make the lobbyist role notable, then that might be the time to move the page. If you feel that users will be looking for Scott H. Green then there is no reason why that could not be a redirect page to the Article.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 17:17, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
