Today, I suggest this article be split into W. H. Burford & Son (the company), W. H. Burford (the person) and William Burford (his son) because I believe the current situation of this article is against Wikipedia's policy. Enough? JSH-alive/^{talk/cont/mail} 14:07, 18 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What would the disambiguation page be called?

I believe the current situation of this article is against Wikipedia's policy. - Which policy or policies?

What would be gained by splitting? Not readability. It's not (and never will be) a huge article. Doug butler (talk) 15:05, 21 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Confusion about history[edit]

I don't have time to investigate now, but the histories seem to be confused as per this WP article (which needs better citing), the info in this one and the info attached to this photo. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 08:37, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
