[edit] Moved article

Guys,

I moved this article from Mike Powell to Mike Powell (athlete). I realise that such moves sometimes cause offence, and I apologise. It's just there are too many other people called Mike Powell. I know of two cricketers 1, 2, and then there are all the Michael Powells, all of whom are probably called Mike by their friends. If it was just one other person, I would have put a disambiguation link at the top of the article, but when there are so many, that's not a practicable solution.

And to prove the point, "What links here" showed several incorrect links to Mike Powell. I think I've sorted them all out correctly. Stephen Turner (Talk) 17:42, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
