The result of the move request was: Move to Pieter Coecke van Aelst Mike Cline ( talk) 11:43, 5 March 2012 (UTC) reply

Pieter van Aelst → Pieter Coecke van Aelst – I suggest this article be renamed "Pieter Coecke van Aelst" with the "listas" parameter "Coecke van Aelst, Pieter". Supporting facts:

• Authority control sources Library of Congress, DNB, VIAF, Getty Union List of artist names prefer "Coecke van Aelst, Pieter".
• Commons:Creator:Pieter Coecke van Aelst sortkey is "Coecke van Aelst, Pieter".
• Scholarly references refer to the artist as "Coecke" when they don't give a full name. Thomas P. Campbell (2002): "a tour de force of imaginative design, the ensemble has long been recognized as one of Coecke's masterpieces."
• Avoids confusion with the Flemish tapestry weavers also called Pieter van Aelst (Pieter van Edingen Van Aelst, Getty Union list preference "Pieter van Aelst the Younger", and his father).

• A disam page would be another way to do it. Johnbod ( talk) 18:44, 26 February 2012 (UTC) reply
  • Agreed that would solve the issue with minimal changes to Wikipedia Pieter Coecke van Aelst currently redirects to Pieter van Aelst), but is it the best solution? Adding the formal template so others can weigh in. I'm quite okay either way. - PKM ( talk) 19:02, 26 February 2012 (UTC) reply
• Support per WP:COMMONNAME. Google Scholar gives 400 hits for "Pieter Coecke van Aelst" vs. 200 for "Pieter van Aelst". Favonian ( talk) 18:16, 4 March 2012 (UTC) reply
