Talk:Billy Hayes (writer)

message: Billy Hayes (smuggler) → Billy Hayes — Billy Hayes is currently a disambiguation page with only one actual link to an article; Billy Hayes (smuggler) of Midnight Express fame. I don't see the point in creating disambiguation pages when no other articles exist with the same name and I would have moved this myself, but recently a similar instance (Walker House) was reverted by an editor, so I'm proposing here first.

====Survey - in support of the move====
# Support I think description is out of place next to a person's name. It makes it part of the person's identity. Plus it's a matter of mercy. If it were me, I wouldn't want the negative qualifier glaring at me thirty years after the crime. Telogen 06:06, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

It was requested that this article be renamed but there was no consensus for it to be moved. Note that the title Billy Hayes (writer) is unobstructed, should a move to that title be desired. --Stemonitis 16:25, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

message: #Oppose.  It is not clear that this is the primary use.  Also the 'description' after the name for the support vote above is not an issue here since that is the standard way to dab an article when there are multiple uses.  If the dab is not correct it should be changed and not be used as a reason to make an ill advised move. Vegaswikian 22:55, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

message: The requested move to Billy Hayes above did not reach a consensus, but the only opposing opinion was also in support for a move to Billy Hayes (writer), so I'd like to propose that move. Chrisahn (talk) 22:59, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

message: In early March, Outrate.net was blacklisted for adding too many links to Wikipedia, which represented a COI according to Wikipedia policies.  But this has meant that a number of valid Outrate.net links were automatically removed.
Our lengthy interview with Billy Hayes (Aug 05) was removed from the Interviews and External Links section of your Billy Hayes page.  The deep link to the interview is here: outrate.net/billyhayes.html
I believe you are able to replace this link, if you would like to. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 125.253.33.127 (talk) 23:34, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
