Arthur David Eyton-Jones → Arthur Eyton-Jones – I've decided the disambiguation page for Arthur Eyton-Jones is unnecessary. Also, I wanted to have consistency with pages linked to this one. So could we remove the disambiguation page and change the page name as requested Goblin Roger House (talk) 18:14, 25 October 2018 (UTC)--Relisting.

• @Goblin Roger House and SshibumXZ: queried move request Anthony Appleyard (talk) 19:14, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
• Sorry, but, I don't think it's for you to decide, whilst you raise a very good point, I think a discussion may very well be in order here. Also, by the way, please add new requests below the existing ones in the future. Regards, SshibumXZ (talk · contribs). 18:27, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
• Of course, yes, it did say I needed to put it to administrators. I'm happy to answer any questions you have. Also sorry for adding the request above rather than below, a schoolboy error!Goblin Roger House (talk) 21:57, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

Questionable points

1. It is stated "soon after the outbreak of World War II David was asked to return to Monkton Combe School to take part in Home Guard duties." I don't know what people call soon, but I feel the word does not really apply to him as the Home Guard were not formed until the summer of 1940.

2. It says introduction he was inter alia a chaplain, and that in retirement he was Chaplain of Chichester branch of the Royal Sussex Regimental Association. However, a chaplain is normally a priest but no mention he studied for orders, was ever ordained or performing other ecclesiastical duties.
