Tom Gabel/Laura Jane Grace
Please see the discussions at Talk:Tom Gabel: It is not appropriate to go through all of the Against Me!-related articles changing Gabel's name to Laura Jane Grace: The name change is an "eventual" thing that has not yet happened, and even when it does happen the person's name at the time all of these things happened was "Tom Gabel". When a person legally changes names or adopts a pseudonym, you don't pull a revisionist history move by changing all instances of their old name to the new, including from times before they changed their name. You explain the name change and refer to them by that name moving forward, but you don't alter the past to suit the present/future. --IllaZilla (talk) 18:03, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
