Would John Walter II or John Walter, Jr. be more appropriate? john k 23:28, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
No. These are American naming conventions, which are not used very much in the UK. NRPanikker 00:39, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: moved to John Walter (editor, born 1776). There was a pretty clear consensus against simply using dates and this alternative got the most support. Other proposals will be created as redirects. I'd recommend starting RMs for the father and son, or someone can be bold if they think their change will stick, but I didn't exactly see a consensus here for how they should be dab'd.

John Walter (second) →
John Walter (1776–1847) – existing name is neither informative or helpful, especially seeing as there are now more than one John Walter at wikipedia. Alternates would be John Walter, the younger, and rename his father to John Walter, the elder —
