Some books write this person's name as "Eleno(a) de Céspedes", "Eleno/a de Céspedes", "Elena/o de Céspedes", "Elena(o) de Céspedes", or in a few cases even "Elen@ de Céspedes" (using the gender-neutral a/o replacement wikt:@). I don't know if any of this should be mentioned in a footnote, but I suspect redirects should be created from these forms. (I created {{R to diacritic}}s from Eleno de Cespedes and Elena de Cespedes.) (I note for example that Thomas(ine) Hall's article mentions the parenthetical and slashed spellings, which in Hall's case are even said to be most common, unlike here where it seems that usually one name or the other is used.) -sche (talk) 05:29, 22 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Creating any of these redirects seems unnecessary. A search at Wikipedia for "de Céspedes" already turns up this article as the number #1 result, and no one would intentionally search for one of the variants you list so redirects wouldn't help for finding the article. As far as in-links from other articles, there's a total of only twelve pages in article space linking to the article, and they use "Eleno"; if an article really wanted to use one of the versions you mention (which seems unlikely at this point) then they could simply use a piped link: [[Eleno de Céspedes|Eleno(a) de Céspedes]] so a redirect would not be necessary in that case either.
