An important change needs to be made across various Wikipedia entries pertaining to Minnesota.

The Wikipedia entry for Lake Calhoun needs to be listed under the official name of the lake: Calhoun. Redirecting to another name propagates erroneous information. To help preserve its credibility, Wikipedia needs to correct the label to this entry to reflect the official name.

Several other entries relating to Minnesota (and indeed John C. Calhoun himself) need to be changed to show that the legal name of the lake in question is Calhoun.
