Page move
There has been an undiscussed page move, from the long-established title, to Desmond P Smith. This is contrary to WP:NCP. Firstly, as stated, "Most biographical articles have titles in the form  ". Secondly, it states "The name used most often to refer to a person in reliable sources is generally the one that should be used as the article title even if it is not the person's "real" name,". Here, reliable sources invariably refer to him as 'Des Smith' not 'Desmond Smith'. Just Chilling (talk) 17:58, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
