Talk:Thomas Abernethy (politician)

Date of death?
"until he died in 1999" - and then category "1998 deaths". Which is correct? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.16.246.18 (talk) 22:47, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Disambiguation
We now have three articles about people who I think were generally called "Thomas Abernethy" so I have created a disambiguation page Thomas Abernethy (disambiguation). My feeling is that there is no WP:PRIMARYTOPIC so it may be best to move this page to Thomas Gerstle Abernethy and to point the redirect created here to Thomas Abernethy (disambiguation). Before I do this does anyone have any observations? Thincat (talk) 09:49, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

I have now found a Tom Abernethy who may be well known (but not by me) and, moreover, there are a large number of links to this page. So, I've decided to let sleeping dogs lie and will not alter the page naming. Thincat (talk) 10:25, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

– The disambiguation page's creator explains the reasoning behind the page's main header above, under section header "Disambiguation", with the argument "that there is no WP:PRIMARYTOPIC" being the key point. — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 09:59, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
