Gary Birch (Paralympian) → Gary Birch, O.C. – The paralympian title is not the focus of this article, nor is it the most important title. If anything, the title of Order of Canada recipient out ranks the title of paralympian. Birdman604 (talk) 18:10, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
- Move to Gary Birch (electrical engineer). This appears to be his actual field and what he is known for. We usually disambiguate by occupation, not by award unless an individual is solely known for an award, and even then we only do it for recipients of very high and recognisable awards, and then we put them in parentheses (e.g. James Craig (VC)). "OC" is far too ambiguous and the OC is too low an award to use for disambiguation. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:16, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
- Move to Gary Birch (electrical engineer). I agree Gary Birch (electrical engineer) would be appropriate. Birdman604 (talk) 16:47, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
- Support Gary Birch (electrical engineer), per Necrothesp. Jenks24 (talk) 08:46, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
