Why Mhlope and not Mhlophe?
Why is the lemma Mhlo-p-e, while all sources show the name Mhlo-ph-e. Shouldn't this not be changed? Greetings --Fritzober (talk) 16:43, 1 August 2018 (UTC) Agreed. I will attempt to move the article. FuniHistory (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:59, 5 April 2019 (UTC)

Gcina Mhlope → Gcina Mhlophe – Mhlophe is the more common spelling of her name. It is the Library of Congress Name Authority. On Google, the Mhlophe spelling is more common in result. It's also the way she spells her own nam.e on twitter FuniHistory (talk) 18:56, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
