Talk:John B. Quigley

Environmental activist
John Quigley, the law professor, was not the environmental activist arrested in LA. They share a fairly common name. -- 23:08, 15 June 2006‎ -- Pdxgoat

Prominent academic
I think a strong case can be made that the article about "John Quigley (academic)" should be about the University of California academic who died in 2012:


 * "During his career he produced fourteen books and over 150 scholarly articles."

and


 * " He advised over twenty research and governmental agencies including the World Bank, General Accounting Office, Urban Institute, Federal Home Loan Bank Board, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, and institutions in Indonesia, Hungary, Germany, Sweden, and China. ... He was elected a fellow of the Homer Hoyt Institute in 1992 and the Regional Science Association in 2004. He was president of the American Real Estate and Urban Economics Association from 1996 to 1998, President of the Western Regional Science Association from 1998 to 2000, and President of the North American Regional Science Council from 2009 to 2010."

(From http://gspp.berkeley.edu/news-events/quigleyObit.html)

That would require moving the existing article to, say, John B. Quigley, which is currently a redirect. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 00:13, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

John Quigley (academic) → John B. Quigley – Most common name form in the literature, plus the term "academic" is very broad and there's at least one other notable academic of this name (John M. Quigley – see discussion from 2012). Axolotl Nr.733 (talk) 20:39, 1 March 2018 (UTC) --Relisting. Dekimasu よ! 01:08, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Support Google search results suggest he is most commonly referred to as John B. Quigley. (edit: forgot to sign) Shadow007 (talk) 06:31, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment. While frequently referenced as "John B.", including academic and faculty listings, there is the inconsistency that, although his columns/opinion pieces carry the byline "John B. Quigley", all of his books feature the author name "John Quigley". Another argument in favor of using "John B." is that, as been mentioned at the top of this talk page, another academic, the late John M. Quigley, was also referenced as "John Quigley". &mdash;Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 18:11, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
