It is not shared use, it is named after Charles Rowan and Richard Mayne, joint first commissioners of the Metropolitan Police, since police history is one of my interests. MayneAndRowan (talk) 14:57, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Chief Surgeon of the Metropolitan Police

The article Chief Surgeon of the Metropolitan Police has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Searches did not turn up enough in-depth coverage from independent, reliable sources to support meeting WP:GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Claude Vincent

Hi there. While doing New Page Reviews, I reverted your undiscussed move of Claude Vincent to a disambiguated title where the only other entry was a redlinked article. If there is another Claude Vincent article in the future, that can be discussed, but the current article is likely to remain the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, at least at first, and thus disambiguation can be resolved with WP:HATNOTEs instead of moving the page. See also WP:TWODABS. If you wish to undo my revert, please start a discussion at WP:RM. Thanks! Dclemens1971 (talk) 04:27, 20 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
