Joshua M. Kindred → Joshua Kindred – There are no other "Joshua Kindred" articles on Wikipedia, and the subject's middle initial doesn't seem particularly commonly used. This is a pervasive issue in biographical articles, by the way. White Whirlwind 21:47, 13 April 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. _signed,511KeV ^(talk) 11:12, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply

Some of the sources cited in the article use the M, some don't, and some use Michael. How do we know that the name you propose is the best choice? Dr. Vogel (talk) 22:08, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
There are also quite a few sources using Josh Kindred, which would be even better from a
WP:CONCISE perspective. I think this one needs discussion. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 03:23, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply
