Talk:Barrett Browning

Equal Dab'n
"Equal" in this context means no more nor less than "not treated as a Dab problem that requires Redirection to one article that bears a HatNote Dab'n notice at its top." The ball player has been in the majors for three years, but is pro'lly not yet well known outside St. Lou. IMO, it'll be a long time before we can be sure that people seeking him will misspell his surname more often than EBB (or her son!) is misunderstood to be part of a family that treat "Barrett Browning" as a unified surname that they passed on (or still pass on) to their descendants. So i'm creating an equal dab'n.  YMMV, in the future or even now, in which case i might notice and contest your evidence. Or not care. Or somewhere in between. --Jerzy•t 01:03, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
 * 1) Equal Dab'n is a presumption that can only be overcome with evidence to the contrary.
 * 2) The evidence required in this case to overcome that presumption would be that the majority of uses of "Barrett Browning", as if it were the title of a WP article, will be intended to refer to the same one of the following three people:
 * The female poet
 * Her son
 * The ball player
