Talk:John Bowker (theologian)

Untitled
here's another interesting discussion regarding Mr Bowker: talk:United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization

and the list of Masters of Trinity: Trinity_College,_Cambridge below there is a list of "Deans of Chapel" - ie Mr Bowker was really a "Dean of Chapel". Is a Chaplain really noteworthy, as a Chaplain?

John Bowker → John Bowker (theologian) – After reading the suggestions found on WP:PRIMARY TOPIC, I do not think Bowker is notable enough to be the primary topic. A Google search returns several hits first for John Bowker (baseball), despite the fact that Bowker has not been very successful in his major league career. Thus, I think that this Bowker's article should be retitled and John Bowker should become a disambiguation page. John Bowker (baseball) could be made the primary topic, but I do not know if he is notable enough for that (or if this guy is unnotable enough for that).

 * Support. John Bowker should become a dab page. WWGB (talk) 14:33, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Support. Both of these Bowkers are roughly equally notable, one particularly in Google Scholar and UK (BBC), another in US and Japan (Yomiuri Giants), so John Bowker should be a dab.In ictu oculi (talk) 15:30, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose -- The baseball player will be close to NN when he is retired. Where there are only two articles, there is no need to have a dabpage, because the hatnote serves the purpose equally.  The number of Ghits and traffic statistics are not necessarily the best measure of notability.  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:23, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I understand that the ballplayer will be forgotten (by most people) after his retirement, but I think the theologian may be, for the most part, forgotten after his death as well. Sanfranciscogiants17 (talk) 16:27, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
