Oppose as proposed and instead move to Melanie Reay, reflecting Twitter and The Guardian and NUFC and SAFC. Much better sources (quality and range) than the one proposed by the nominator. Giant Snowman 20:01, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Relist to discuss whether Mel Reay or Melanie Reay is the most suitable title BilledMammal (talk) 14:20, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support Melanie Copeland → Melanie Reay per GiantSnowman. Subject is obviously referenced as both "Melanie" and "Mel", but she appears to be using "Melanie" as does a greater number of sources. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 00:23, 3 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
