Page title[edit]

When I created this page, I did so at Samuel Barnes (Alberta politician). Because the sources pretty well universally refer to him as S. A. G. Barnes, I then moved the page there. Shortly thereafter, Þadius (talk · contribs) moved it to its current location, Samuel A. Barnes. That frankly doesn't sit well with me, since he never seems to have gone by that name, and there's no indication that the "A" initial is any more important than the "G" one. I would suggest that the page be moved back to S. A. G. Barnes, the target I believe is best supported by WP:NAMINGCRITERIA. I could also live with Samuel Augustus Gordon Barnes, or maybe Samuel A. G. Barnes. Do others have thoughts? Steve Smith (talk) 22:35, 12 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
