Wikipedia:Naming conventions (common names)

There is no prior discussion page corresponding any of the 5 article pages that are, or redirect to the same place as, this one's article. So there is no discussion of the rationale for the redirection (by thedespised cut-and-paste method, no less) of S. I. Hayakawa to Samuel I. Hayakawa.

As should be clear from Wikipedia:Naming conventions (common names), people usually known by initials and surname should have their WP bios titled that way, just as Bill Clinton is the article and William Jefferson Clinton the redirect.

Anyone doubting this is such a case should do some serious research; i have not, since i spent a year or so unsure whether S. I. Hayakawa and Sessue Hayakawa were different people, and a number of decades thereafter (ending today) wondering whether the former might sometimes be known as Sessue I. Hayakawa. (That is to say, if anyone called him "Samuel" within my notice, i would have remembered the fact.)

(For the benefit of other similarly situated readers, Sessue was 16 or 17 when S.I. was born in Vancouver, so father-and-son seems farfetched. [smile])

Senile?

This article had included, as a matter of fact, that S. I. Hayakawa was senile. Any such fantastic charges should be removed, until authenticated. Snide jokes, based on Sen. Hayakawa's advanced age and tendency to fall asleep, should not be treated as factual.
