Herman Miller bought Knoll Inc. in 2021 and it's now called MillerKnoll. At some point, the Knoll article should be merged with this article. I'm pretty new to WP editing and don't yet have the technical skills to take this on, but I'd be glad to help with the writing and sourcing. (I just put a similar message on Knoll talk page.)

– It seems to me extremely obvious that Herman Miller is the WP:COMMONNAME for this company (and not MillerKnoll), as demonstrated by Google Trends and the fact that on the "news" tab of Google, there are 147,000 results for Herman Miller and only 7,250 results for MillerKnoll, which, for the latter, are mainly financial reports for the company while for the former, news is actually about the company and its products (for example, only "Herman Miller" shows news about its new collaboration with HAY). Thus, Herman Miller is the most recognizable title for the page. As for moving Herman Miller, which is currently a disambiguation page, to Herman Miller (disambiguation), I believe that the furniture company is clearly the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, since the other two pages (a writer and a politician) barely have sources and are hard to find online.

I’m not sure if the chair itself is notable, but it certainly does seem notable for the company that one of its chairs won industry awards for ergonomics and for sustainability. Silvester ( talk) 23:20, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

Hi there, I've reverted your edit. I'd like to remind you Wikipedia is meant to provide neutral perspectives when writing articles ( WP:NPOV), regardless of our own thoughts on someone's conduct. DeveloperRowan ( talk) 11:09, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Some moved. Herman Miller (Wisconsin politician) moved to Herman Miller (politician), rest left in place. ( closed by non-admin page mover) -- Maddy from Celeste ( WAVEDASH) 08:49, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
– The company does not appear to be primary over the combined notability of the politician and the writer. As for the parenthetical qualifier "(company)", Category:Furniture companies of the United States lists Haworth (company), HSM (company) and Turnstone (company). Also, since there are no other politicians named "Herman Miller", the qualifier "(Wisconsin politician)" can be reduced to "(politician)". Finally, if the company is not primary, the dab page would not need the qualifier "(disambiguation)". A tangentially related nomination is currently active at Talk:Hermann Müller (politician, born 1876)#Requested move 1 December 2023. — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 01:51, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
