Talk:Linda S. Stein

Photo
Why is there a picture of Linda Stein's DAUGHTER and not Linda herself? The article is not about the daughter. Better to have no photo at all in this case. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 15.251.169.69 (talk) 21:42, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Article title
The new name appears to violate WP:NCP, which says "Adding middle names, or their abbreviations, merely for disambiguation purposes (that is: if this format of the name is not the commonly used one to refer to this person) is not advised." See also Help:Pipe trick for another reason to use parenthetical disambiguators. In this case, I moved it here last year on the presumption that she was best "known" as the Ramones manager and her real estate career, while somewhat notable, was more discreet. I'm not really sure that "Ramones manager" is the best way to disambig her now, so I'm not yet making this a requested move. (Unfortunately, the old page has already been mistakenly edited by anons, so as a non-admin I can't just move it back.) I'm open to other ideas, though. Also unfortunately, we can't use "Linda Stein (New York)" as the artist Linda Stein is also from NYC. --Dhartung | Talk 20:23, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * CNN provides one example of why "Ramones manager" may still be warranted as an identifier -- it's in their headline first. --Dhartung | Talk 20:24, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * The New York Times article seems to use "Linda S. Stein" frequently. I personally don't think "Linda Stein (Ramones manager)" is a big improvement over "Linda S. Stein." The Ramones article currently doesn't mention her, although it does state "After garnering considerable attention for their performances at CBGB's, the group was signed to a recording contract by Seymour Stein of Sire Records in Autumn 1975." The Seymour Stein article describes her as "music promoter and real estate executive." The CNN article says she "co-managed the Ramones with Danny Fields during the band's heyday." The New York Times article said she "was a co-manager of the Ramones" and "(reinvented) herself in real estate." There are also exceptions against using middle initials in article titles at WP:NCP, John F. Kennedy for example. She's apparently notable for two different things, so I think "Linda S. Stein" is okay. Just some thoughts. --Pixelface 02:22, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I think 'Linda S. Stein' is appropriate. Anchoress 18:17, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
