Mistaken reference
editThis article is about the Canadian billionaire Robert Miller.
The second reference in this article (Forbes Profile: Robert Miller 2020-11-30) refers to a different Robert Miller: an American billionaire who appears to have no connection to anything discussed here. Scrabbling (talk) 16:30, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

Quote box
editWhat purpose is served by the quote box here? It seems like possibly astro-turfed self-aggrandizement or sycophancy. That one source once published this is entirely irrelevant to the character of a life. That the eye is immediately drawn to this flattery because of it's location, border and changed colour to the rest of the page is especially troubling, and could be argued to be the express intent behind its inclusion in light of the other controversies for this person. I would delete it, but have no authority to make such a judgment. I do recommend it's deletion though. 2A00:23C5:6F16:3401:94A4:E3BB:7EC2:946E (talk) 17:50, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

- Robert Miller (businessman) → Robert Miller (Canadian businessman)
- Robert Miller (composer) → ?
- Robert Miller (American football) → Robert Miller (running back)
– Resolve another hairy partial disambiguation mess.
- Robert Miller (businessman) could apply to anyone at Robert Miller#Business
- Robert Miller (composer) could also apply to Bob Miller (composer, born 1895) - I'm drawing a blank on any way of disambiguating him, though.
- Robert Miller (American football) could also apply to Bob Miller (American football) maybe that article should be moved to Bob Miller (tackle) as well. * Pppery * it has begun... 02:50, 2 November 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

- Oppose all. WP:COMMONNAME. Everything here is currently fully disambiguated. 162 etc. (talk) 16:45, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Support 1st and 3rd. Very clearly ambiguous. Robert Miller lists seven businessmen called Robert Miller. The fact that the others have middle names is neither here nor there. All were still called Robert Miller. The real name of Bob Miller (American football) was also Robert Miller. I think Bob Miller (composer, born 1895) would be best moved to Bob Miller (songwriter) and Robert Miller (composer) left as is. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:34, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

- Support 1 & 3 as they are ambiguous, per Necrothesp. COMMMONNAME does not apply as that only applies to the non-disambiguated portion of pagenames, and the move request only applies to the disambiguation form. "composer" doesn't seem to need moving, since hte Bob Miller article does not indicate his name is "Robert"; so also per Necrothesp "Bob Miller (composer, born 1895)" could be moved to Bob Miller (songwriter) -- 65.92.246.77 (talk) 05:45, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
- Relisting comment: Second relist due to possible consensus to move Bob Miller (composer, born 1895) - I've notified that article and talk so that we are following RM procedure ASUKITE 15:33, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
