I reverted the move by Rublamb from "Ruth Rosekrans Hoffman" to "Ruth Hoffman", as while more concise, this appears to really lose information, and might tend to cause some confusion. I'd support a move to "Rosekrans Hoffman" per WP:COMMONNAME; this is the name she published under. It looks like we'd need to put in a move request for it (as there's already a redirect there), however, and I'd like to make sure it's noncontroversial before putting in the request. Rublamb, what do you think? Russ Woodroofe (talk) 13:44, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Totally Rosekrans Hoffman. That is what I meant to do. Thanks for catching this. Rublamb (talk) 15:46, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Russ Woodroofe: I did a author's speedy delete on Ruth Hoffman. Should I make the move to Rosekrans Hoffman? Rublamb (talk) 19:37, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I tried the move earlier, and it didn't allow moving over the redirect. I requested a move at WP:REQUESTMOVE. If you have the bit to move over the redirect, or if I'm otherwise missing something, then go ahead and move! Russ Woodroofe (talk) 20:10, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Thanks again for catching my mistake. Rublamb (talk) 01:17, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
