Samuel Andrews → Samuel Andrews (chemist) — There are already three articles about persons called Samuel Andrews on WP, and I'm about to add a fourth one to the list (a New Zealand politician). The subject of this article does not strike me as the primary topic (I might be wrong, but I don't get the impression from the start class article), and I thus propose that this page name be used for a disambiguation page, as per WP:DABNAME.

And just before anybody gets confused, I proposed the move and later closed the move, but it wasn't me who moved the page itself without discussion. I've tidied up the incoming links, though, after it got moved.  Schwede 66  19:09, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

Spanish translation
Something that would be important would be to translate the article into Spanish, into Italian, to German (if it does not exist) and other languages in general. Thank you to the user reading this for taking the time to read this matter. Tonio01dec (talk) 20:18, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
