Celestine Ware → Cellestine Ware – The article title should be changed from "Celestine Ware" to "Cellestine Ware" because a majority of the sources that reference Ware use the two L spelling. This initial request of mine was deleted by mistake without resolution.&#32;Jacob Khorsandi (talk) 00:15, 16 December 2023 (UTC) This is a contested technical request (permalink).

 * Sourcing isn't clear on this, and you should probably raise this at an RM instead. EggRoll97 (talk) 02:11, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
 * The obituary cited in the article says the spelling was changed at some point: it begins "Celestine", and later says, "in 1970, when her first name was still spelled Cellestine". It doesn't say when the spelling was supposed to have changed. But anyway there is some element of WP:NAMECHANGES here. Adumbrativus (talk) 07:44, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Weak oppose. No evidence of common name. While ngrams show a slight preference for the old name, I'm inclined to respect the subject's wishes when there is no reason to disregard them. Celia Homeford (talk) 10:39, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
